Thailand                                 30                               50

a) Which country has absolute advantage in cell phones?

b) Which country has comparative advantage in cell phones?

c) Suppose China has 100 units of labor. Draw the production possibility frontier for China.

d) What is the possible range of prices (cell phones to chargers), when trade is opened?

e) Now consider the effects of trade. Add a world trade price line to your diagram in c), and illustrate a plausible consumption point for the China.

5.  3. Specific Factors Model of Trade

6.  Businesses in Finland have made investments that have created stocks of capital that are devoted to either telecommunications (T) or business services (B).

7.  a) Suppose that Finland is not trading. Draw the specific factors diagram for Finland, indicating how labor is divided between the two industries, and showing the prevailing wage wo.

8.  b) Suppose before trade that the relative price of telecommunications to business services is 4 in Finland while the relative price for the rest of the world is 6. What do you predict about the world price of telecommunications to business services once trade starts?

9.  c) Modify your diagram to show how Finland’s labor allocation and wage change when it opens trade with the rest of the world.

10.  d) How does the opening of trade affect capital owners in Finland’s business services industry? Describe and show on your graph.

11.  e) Can you predict whether Finnish workers are likely to benefit or lose from the opening of trade? Explain.

12.  f) Suppose Finnish workers consume as much telecommunications as they can, while they buy very few business services. How does this affect the likely magnitude of worker gains or loses?

The intern student have been researching outsourcing opportunities and have found that the company could achieve modest savings by outsourcing compensation and benefits. Intern students would feel an obligation to consider this action, although fifteen employees may lose their jobs and their position would be diminished in importance as a result of the action. What do they do?

Questions

1. What are the ethical issues in this situation?

2. What are the basic arguments for and against outsourcing in this situation?

3. What do you think most managers would do? What would you do?
