Answer:

All except ' 7 Barrels of oil per bottle of wine'

Explanation:

Italy & Switzerland can gain from specialising : If they get more than domestic trade off ratio i.e more than 1/5 or 0.20 units oil per unit wine & more than 1/5 or 0.20 units wine per unit oil.

  • '4 Units Oil = 1 Unit Wine' implies '1 unit oil = 1/5 i.e 0.25 units Wine'. This is favourable term of trade for Switzerland & Italy, as they both get more than 1/5 or 0.20 units oil per unit wine & more than 1/5 or 0.20 units wine per unit oil
  • '1 Unit Oil = 1 Unit Wine' is also favourable term of trade for Switzerland & Italy, as they both get > 1/5 or 0.20 units oil per unit wine & > 1/5 or 0.20 units wine per unit oil
  • '2 units oil =  1 unit wine' implies ' 1 unit oil = 0.5 units wine'. It is is also favourable term of trade for Switzerland & Italy, as they both > than 1/5 or 0.20 units oil per unit wine & > 1/5 or 0.20 units wine per unit oil
  • '7 units oil per unit wine' is favourable for Italy as it receives > 1/5 or 0.20 units oil per unit wine. But it is not favourable for Switzerland as it gets 1/7 = 0.14 units wine per unit oil, i.e < 1/5 or 0.20 units wine per unit oil.
