We typically hear of the gains from trade coming through specialization wherein each nation produces more of and exports that go

od which it produces at relatively less cost, and produces less of and imports that good which it produces at relatively higher cost. Indeed, classical trade theory is based on the benefits from such specialization in production. But, what if the nation cannot move any resources from the production of one good to the production of other and therefore cannot specialize in production

Answer:

Generally theoretical models work only in theory. E.g. perfect competition models exist in theory but no market is really a perfect competition market.

The Ricardian model or the H-O model, or other trade models make the mistake of assuming that resources can be allocated at will and almost immediately, e.g. a fisherman can immediately become an engineer and start developing apps. Or a farmer that produces corn or rye (very popular examples) can suddenly start working at a factory producing bluejeans.

In real life, it doesn't happen. Also, trade models never consider natural trade barriers and extra costs related to trade. E.g. it is not the same to sell $10,000 worth of corn (you need a very large truck) than selling $10,000 worth of jeans (all you need is a small delivery van). In real life, trade is not simple, it is actually extremely complicated.

E.g. everyone knows that manufacturing goods in America is not efficient, at best companies can be less inefficient, but no manufacturing company in America is really efficient if we compare them to foreign companies. Even people who work in manufacturing industries know this, but they want to continue working in them. They want the companies to keep producing in America and they want to keep their jobs. Not everyone in America has a college degree in computer programming, finances, is able to design robots, or is a doctor, etc.

In real life, efficient industries have to exist alongside inefficient industries, and the whole economy suffers from it. But it is unavoidable. In the long run, the economy will eventually shift resources to more efficient industries,  but it takes a long time, and a lot of people and companies will be against it. E.g. every year there are less shoe manufacturers in America, and eventually sometime in the future there will be none.

Vikentia [17]

Answer:

The answer is: The ending balance in Finished Goods Inventory is $1,200

Explanation:

First we have to calculate the cost per chair produced, to do this we will find the total cost and divide by the number of chairs produced:

Units produced  100 chairs

  • Direct materials  $10 per unit  x 100 = $1,000
  • Direct labor  15  per unit  x 100 = $1,500
  • Variable manufacturing overhead 3 per unit x 100 = $300
  • Total fixed manufacturing overhead  $2,000

Total costs are $4,800 / 100 chairs = $48 per chair produced

There are 25 chairs left in finished goods inventory (FGI) = 100 - 75 = 25

The ending balance in FGI is = 25 chairs x $48 per chair = $1,200
