What factors contribute to the comparative advantages of countries?
Westkost [7]

Answer:

International trade is the exchange of capital, goods, and services across international borders or territories.

Each nation should produce goods for which its domestic opportunity costs are lower than the domestic opportunity costs of other nations and exchange those goods for products that have higher domestic opportunity costs compared to other nations.

Benefits of trade include lower prices and better products for consumers, improved political ties among nations, and efficiency gains for domestic producers.

International trade is the exchange of capital, goods, and services across international borders or territories. Trading-partners reap mutual gains when each nation specializes in goods for which it holds a comparative advantage and then engages in trade for other products. In other words, each nation should produce goods for which its domestic opportunity costs are lower than the domestic opportunity costs of other nations and exchange those goods for products that have higher domestic opportunity costs compared to other nations.

Explanation:

In economics, the production possibility frontier (PPF) is a graph that shows the combinations of two commodities that could be produced using the same total amount of the factors of production. It shows the maximum possible production level of one commodity for any production level of another, given the existing levels of the factors of production and the state of technology.

PPFs are normally drawn as extending outward around the origin, but can also be represented as a straight line. An economy that is operating on the PPF is productively efficient, meaning that it would be impossible to produce more of one good without decreasing the production of the other good. For example, if an economy that produces only guns and butter is operating on the PPF, the production of guns would need to be sacrificed in order to produce more butter. If production is efficient, the economy can choose between combinations (i.e., points) on the PPF: B if guns are of interest, C if more butter is needed, or D if an equal mix of butter and guns is required.

Degger [83]

The correct answer is difficulty raising funds.

If a business is owned by a partnership, the company is limited to the amount of money that the partners have to invest. This is different from corporation, because when this type of business needs for funds they can sell more stock.

sergejj [24]

Answer:

$24,000

Explanation:

Total Taxable income of first and second year = $10,000 + $30,000 = $40,000

Net loss in 3rd year = $100,000  

Net Operating loss carry back = Regina Taxable income Total of first and second year of operations

Net Operating loss carry back = $40,000

Net Operating loss Carry forwards = Net loss - Net Operating loss carry back

Net Operating loss carry forward = $100,000 - $40,000

Net Operating loss carry forward = $60,000

Income tax rate = 40%

Income tax benefit from the Net Operating loss carry forward = Net Operating loss carry forward * Income tax rate

Income tax benefit from the Net Operating loss carry forward = $60,000 * 40%  

Income tax benefit from the Net Operating loss carry forward = $24,000 .
