Answer: b. good B; good A

Explanation:

According to the Heckscher-Ohlin model, a country should export the good that is has a relative abundance in and import the good it has relative scarcity in.

Find out labor to land ratio of both countries:

Country Alpha = 45 / 15 = 3

Country Beta = 200 / 100 = 2

Country Alpha has 3 labor units per acre

Country Beta has 2 labor units per acre

Country Alpha therefore has more labor abundance and should export the labor intensive good which is good A which means <u>Country B will import A</u>.

Country Beta should <u>export more land intensive good which is good B. </u>
