Country x would have an absolute advantage over country y in the production of automobiles under what conditions?
Paul [167]
Under the condition that country X can manufacture cars more cheaply. An absolute advantage devours in a country if it makes good over alternative country and uses a smaller amount of wealth to yield that good. The result of a country’s natural legacy is the absolute advantage. Another example is extracting oil in Saudi Arabia is pretty much just a matter of drilling a hole. Generating oil in other countries can is essential substantial exploration and costly technologies for drilling and extraction if certainly they have any oil at all. The United States devours about the richest farmland in the world which manufacture it at ease to grow corn and wheat than in many other countries. Guatemala and Colombia partake environment particularly suitable for growing coffee. Chile and Zambia have about of the world’s richest copper mines. As some have claimed that geography is destiny. Chile will bargain copper and Guatemala will harvest coffee and they will trade. When each country has a product others necessity and it can be manufactured with fewer resources in one country over another then it is easy to visualize all parties do good from trade. Thinking about trade just in relations of geography and absolute advantage is incomplete. Trade actually happens because of comparative advantage.

Soloha48 [4]

Answer:

The answer is option B)  According to the Lewis two-sector model the creation of a Modern (urban) Sector will:

Create a flow of labor from the traditional sector into the modern sector.

Explanation:

The two sector model propounded by W. Arthur Lewis is a theory of development that identifies two sectors: the traditional and modern sector.

According to this theory, the creation of a modern sector will generate a flow of excess labor from the traditional sector to the urban sector where there is more demand for labor.

Over time, this migration will create more jobs, stimulate industrialization and a framework for sustainable development.
