A) Japan specializes in Auto while US specializes in Planes

B) The range of terms of trade:

P = A . if P =A = 2A then the specialization will be beneficial to both countries.

C) The best terms of trade will be

P = ( A + 2A )/ 2 = 3A / 2 = 1.5A

D) The net benefit for each country (after specialization)

Japan : 20A-(7.5A+10A) = 2.5A

U.S : 40P- (13.33P + 20P) = 6.67P

E) some of The limitations of production and export :

i) There are more than two countries in the world hence the assumption are not real

ii) In the table the quality of goods produced is not tabulated/considered as well

iii) The technological expertise of both countries where not considered as well

B) The range of terms of trade:

lets assume that trade in Japan before specialization was : 12 A = 6 P, hence P = 2A also assume that of US to be ; P = A . if P =A = 2A then the specialization will be beneficial to both countries.

C) The best terms of trade will be

P = ( A + 2A )/ 2 = 3A / 2 = 1.5A

D) The net benefit for each country (after specialization)

Japan : 20A-(7.5A+10A) = 2.5A

U.S : 40P- (13.33P + 20P) = 6.67P

E) some of The limitations of production and export :

i) There are more than two countries in the world hence the assumption are not real

Answer from: Quest

answer: in the short-run firms will respond by raising the price of turkey.

explanation: initially the long-run equilibrium is at a price of $5 per pound of turkey and a quantity of 50 million pounds per year. now, when webmd claims that a protein found in turkey will increase your expected lifespan by 4 years. the consumers demand for turkey will increase at every price shifting the demand curve to the right from d1 to d2. while, there will be no change in the supply curve in the short-run as it is not possible for producers to adjust supply so quickly. as a result the new equilibrium will occur at a higher price and a higher quantity of turkey.

thus, in the short run firms will respond by increasing the price of turkey, selling more quantity at a higher price and earning economic profits.

Bond x is noncallable and has 20 years to maturity, a 7% annual coupon, and a $1,000 par value. your required return on bond x is 10%; if you buy it, you plan to hold it for 5 years. you (and the market) have expectations that in 5 years, the yield to maturity on a 15-year bond with similar risk will be 9.5%. how much should you be willing to pay for bond x today? (hint: you will need to know how much the bond will be worth at the end of 5 years.) do not round intermediate calculations. round your answer to the nearest cent.
