The answer to this is true
Answer:
a. For each country, graph the production possibilities frontier. Suppose that without trade the workers in each country spend half their time producing each good. Identify this point in your graphs.
b. Who has the comparative advantage in the production of shirts? What about for computers?
- China has the comparative advantage in the production of shirts, while the US has the comparative advantage in the production of computers.
c. If these countries were open to trade, which country would export shirts? Give a specific numerical example and show it on your graphs. Which country would benefit from trade?
- China would export 50 million shirts in exchange for 5 million computers (or more if they can). Trade would benefit the US since it will only need to trade 5 million computers in exchange for 50 million shirts, and it will still have 15 million computers that it can consume or trade with come other country.
d. Explain at what price of computers (in terms of shirts) the two countries might trade.
- the minimum and maximum prices would be 5 to 10 shirts per computer. If the price of shirts per computer is 10 or near 10, then the US wins more. If the price of shirts per computer is 5 or near 5, then China wins more.
Explanation:
opportunity cost of producing 1 shirt in the US = 20/100 = 0.2 computers
opportunity cost of producing 1 computer in the US = 100/20 = 5 shirts
opportunity cost of producing 1 shirt in China = 10/100 = 0.1 computers
opportunity cost of producing 1 computer in China = 100/10 = 10 shirts
without trade:
- total production of shirts in the US = 50 million
- total production of computer in the US = 10 million
- total production of shirts in China = 50 million
- total production of computer in China = 5 million
with trade:
- total production of computers in the US = 20 million
- total production of shirts in China = 100 million

What is Game Theory?
This is a mathematical modelling that deals with the analysis of strategies for dealing with competitive situations where the result of a participant's choice of action depends critically on the actions of other participants. Game theory has been applied to in war, business, and biology, sport.
In Game theory, outcome is dependent on the contributions of competing parties
Answer:
The price of ice cream increases - The demand for caramel topping will decrease
The price of caramel topping decreases - The demand curve for caramel topping will remain the same.
The price of butterscotch topping increases - The demand for caramel topping will increase.
Explanation:
If the price of icecream increases , it would become expensive to make them. So producers would reduce quantity supplied of ice cream. As a result of the reduced supply, there would be less demand for caramel toppings.
Caramel and butterscotch toppings are subsituites. If the price of butterscotch toppings increase, the demand for caramel toppings would increase.
If the price of caramel toppings reduce, the quantity supplied would fall. This would lead to a movement along the demand curve and not a shift of the demand curve.
