The value of U.S. imports is Multiple Choice

Salsk061 [2.6K]

Answer:

Option (1) is correct.

Explanation:

The value of imports refers to the amount of goods that are purchased by the residents of the home country from the foreign country. While calculating the gross domestic product (GDP) of a particular nation the value of imports is subtracted from the value of exports of that nation.

The value of imports doesn't contribute towards the domestic production of United States because these goods are produced in the foreign country.

GDP = Consumption + Investment + Government spending + Net Exports

= Consumption + Investment + Government spending + (Exports - Imports)

Consider the following data on the factor endowments of two countries, A and B: Labor Force (millions of workers) 45 20Capital S

Alexus [3.1K]

Answer:

a. Country A

b. Country B

c. Country A

Explanation:

Given

For Country A

Labor force = 45 million = 45000000

Capital Stock = 15 thousand= 15000

For Country B

Labor Force = 20 million = 20000000

Capital Stock = 10 thousand = 10000

a. Which country is relatively capital abundant

A country is capital abundant if its endowment of capital relative to other factors is large compared to other countries.

We calculate the capital/labor ratio for each country.

For A, Ratio = 45000000÷15000 = 3000

For B, Ratio = 20000000÷10000= 2000

The Ratio of country A is greater than B.

So, A is capital redundant.

b. Which country is relatively labor abundant

A country is labour abundant if its endowment of labour relative to other factors is large compared to other countries.

We calculate the labor/capital ratio for each country

For A, Ratio = 15000÷45000000 = 0.000333

For B, Ratio = 10000÷20000000 = 0.0005

The Ratio of country B js greater than A

So, B is capital redundant.

c. Suppose that good S is capital intensive relative to good T. Which country will have comparative advantage in the production of S?

Heckscher–Ohlin theorem in the two-factor case, it states: "A capital-abundant country will export the capital-intensive good, while the labor-abundant country will export the labor-intensive good"

So, if product S is capital intensive relative to T then country A will have more advantage in production of product T to aid their exportation.
