Answer:

All go to Sweden.

Explanation:

The two countries Germany and Sweden both can produce furniture and steel. Germany can produce one unit of steel or furniture in 12 days while Sweden can make one unit of steel in 15 days and one unit of furniture in 10 days. Germany has no advantage from the trade since it can produce both the goods in same time. Therefore all of the trade gain would belong to Sweden.

goldenfox [79]

Answer: a). Spain

b). none

c). 2.4

Explanation: a). Absolute advantage occurs when a country produces more of a good than the other country. In this case, Spain produces 50 units of Tractors while, Bolivia produces only 30 units of Tractors. Thus, Since Spain is producing more it has an absolute advantage in Tractors.

b). Both the countries are producing equal units of Cotton. Thus, we can say that none of them has an absolute advantage in cotton production.

c. Opportunity cost is the cost of the lost alternative. When Spain produces Tractors it is sacrificing production of Cotton. So, opportunity cost on 1 unit of Tractor will be,

Opportunity cost = \frac{120}{50} =2.4

Thus, 2.4 units of cotton which is given up is the opportunity cost of Spain for producing 1 unit of Tractor.

barxatty [35]

Answer:

The answer is: Referral marketing

Explanation:

Referral marketing is like word of mouth marketing, but with a reward.

We are all social creatures, some more than others, and we like to tell our friends about things that might be considered interesting, new, good, etc (a little gossip). We also know by now that advertisement is usually not 100% accurate, so we don´t fully trust it. When one of our friends tells us that they tried product X and it was great, we do trust them and probably will end up buying product X.
