This question is incomplete. Please check the attached image for a complete question.
A country has comparative advantage in the production of a good or service If it produces the good or service at a lower opportunity cost when compared to its trading partners.
The price of Guatemala's coffee is higher when compared to the world price of coffee without international trade. It shows that Guatemala doesn't have a comparative advantage in the production of coffee. Guatemala should stop producing coffee and import instead.

the answer for the third question is An inverse.
Explanation:
given information that i will invest in a $10000 scholarship that will pay forever.
the interest rate charged is 6.00% per annum therefore this is a perpetuity present value problem where there is streams of income forever therefore we use the formula :
Pv of perpetuity= Cf/r
where Cr is the cash flows payed by the single investment forever in this case $10000 then r is the interest rate of the investment amount which is 6% in this case.
Pv of Perpetuity= $10000/6%
=$166667 therefore i must invest this amount to get the scholarship running with streams of $10000 forever.
in the second problem if now the interest rate is changed from 6% to 4.75% then the amount to be invested would be :
Pv of perpetuity = $10000/4.75%
=$210526 therefore this is the amount to be invested for a forever $10000 stream of incomes for a scholarship.
the relationship is indirect cause as the interest rate decreases the present value of the perpetuity that must be invested increases.
