Final Exam Essay Questions Notice that unless specifically instructed, you will not be required to use graphs to answer these questions. You may find it helpful though. International Trade 1. Suppose that two countries (US and Cuba) conform to the assumptions of the Heckscher-Ohlin model and initially do not trade with each other. Only two products are produced—textiles are labor intensive while steel is capital intensive. Cuba has relatively more labor than does the US. Labor and capital are mobile between industries. A. Explain which products each country should export and why. [That is, do not just say that Cuba has a comparative advantage in good X—you must explain why it has a comparative advantage.] B. What would be the expected effect of opening trade on wages and returns to capital in Cuba in the long run? Explain. 2. a. For the policies below, note a small country’s imposition of the policy will increase (+), decrease (-), or have an unclear effect (?) on the variables listed vertically. (Please note, you do not have to explain; just note the direction of change.) Assume that transfers among domestic citizens have no effect on welfare. Tariff Export subsidy Import quota Export tax Domestic price Domestic consumer surplus Domestic producer surplus Government revenue Net national welfare If any of the effects are unclear, provide a brief explanation. b. For each, explain the nature of any deadweight losses in detail, i.e. compare the costs of domestic production and consumer benefits with the reduced or expanded trade. 3. Suppose the assumptions of the Ricardian model apply. Let LA = country A's endowment of labor =100 units; LB = country B's endowment of labor = 100 units. The unit labor coefficients for the two countries for good S and C are: aLc = 2L/c, aLs = 10L/s; bLc = 10L/c, bLs = 1L/s. a. What is the opportunity cost for C in each country? Provide specific numbers (i.e. number of S per C). b. Explain which country has the absolute advantage in each good. c. Explain which country as the comparative advantage in each good. d. What is the range of potential relative prices for mutually beneficial trade? Provide specific numbers (i.e. number of C per S). e. For one particular possible trading price, show the PPF for both countries and the relevant post-trade national income (presuming full specialization). 4. Illustrate and explain how the US (a large country in international oil markets) can benefit from imposing a tariff on petroleum. Which group or groups ultimately pay for the tariff? What are the major drawbacks for a country pursuing this policy? How would consumers of petroleum in Europe be affected by the tariff? 5. Illustrate and explain how a Australia (a large country in the international iron ore markets) can benefit from imposing an export tax on iron.

1. Please visit the following link on the Economist.com and answer the following three questions based on data from any of the tables here. (There are about half a dozen tables linked under “economic and financial indicators” on the right side of the page. These tables contain data on output, prices, wages, inflation, interest rates etc.) http://www.economist.com/markets-data For the purposes of answering these questions, assume that interest rates refer to the annual rates on 10-year government bonds. If necessary, please state any other assumptions. Based on Britain (₤) and Canada (C$): a. For practical purposes, does real interest rate parity exist between these two countries? Please show me your calculations. b. Compared to last year, has the C$ appreciated or depreciated against the pound, and by how much? (Please provide your reasoning and computations). Is this what you would expect based on your answer to part a? Explain your reasoning. c. Identify any two other factors from the tables that, in general, predict exchange rate appreciation or depreciation, and determine if the appreciation or depreciation of the C$ is consistent with what you might predict 2. In general, several variables appear to affect the future value of a currency. Everything else being equal, with reference to the home country, clearly explain in a couple of sentences how each of the following variables are likely to appreciate or depreciate the country’s currency: (please think carefully before you answer these questions). (6 points) a. Increase in GDP/output b. Increase in money supply (M) c. Increase in nominal interest rate (In) d. Increase in real interest rate (Ir) e. Increase in inflation f. Increase in current account surplus 3. Compare and contrast home replication, global, transnational and multi-domestic strategies. Please provide some examples of each type of strategy in your discussion. Please ensure that your discussion contains an understanding of the conditions under which each strategy might be considered appropriate. 2 points 2 points 2 points 2 points 3 points 4. You are considering exchanging Swiss Francs (SF) for Japanese Yen (Y). At the bank, you see the following rates posted.

1.) You are working at an investment firm that has many investments in Lithuania. You have been asked to do a simple simulation showing the potential effects of Lithuania building a high-speed rail network, and what will happen if there is worldwide pressure on interest rates. All amounts are in millions of Litas. (The Lita is the Lithuanian currency. For this example use the exchange rate you compute, not the actual exchange rate). Government spending is projected to rise by 50 percent due to construction of the high-speed rail network This is the status quo scenario Total Output is equal to 5,000 Government spending is equal to 1,000 Tax revenue is equal to 1,000 Consumption is equal to 250+0.75*(Y-T); The level of investment is 1,000-50r; Net Exports are 500-500ε, the world real interest rate is five percent Assume that there are three political parties in Lithuania and each think that building the high speed rail network will have different effects on the economy. They have hired you as a consultant (moonlighting from your investment firm) to do an analysis showing what happens if their beliefs end up being true. a. THE LIBERAL PARTY believes that increasing government spending to build the high speed rail network will increase both G and GDP. That is G, will increase to 1,500 and GDP will increase by 500 too. Compare what happens to the economy if the Liberal party is correct. How do private savings, public savings, national savings, Net exports, and the exchange rate change from the status quo? (10 points) b. THE CONSERVATIVE PARTY believes that building a high speed rail network will put people to work (thus increasing G), but that it will ultimately be useless (there will be no overall wealth created), so GDP will be unchanged. The conservatives are also concerned that the government taking on new debt will be a bad sign to Lithuania’s creditors, and that borrowing the money for the high-speed rail system will cause the interest rate to rise 20 percent. Under this scenario, how do private savings, public savings, national savings, Net exports, and the exchange rate change from the status quo? (8 points) c. THE LIBERTARIAN PARTY believes that taking tax money and using it to build a high-speed rail network does nothing more than take money from one group of people (taxpayers) and give it to another group of people (the construction industry) and that there is no productive economic impact. How do private savings, public savings, national savings, Net exports, and the exchange rate change from the status quo? (8 points) d. Please compare situations a, b, and c. Who do you think is correct, and why? (8 points) e. The Libertarians use a microeconomics explanation about taxation to argue that the economy will be helped most by simply reducing taxes, even if people only save the money that they don’t spend on taxes (C is not affected). They say that this phenomenon is assumed away by most macro-economists. What are they .

Hi, can someone answer these questions for me please? Please let it be in your own words and not copied from anyother websites. Thanks. 1-What's the different between debt financing and equity financing? The following link shows the current US surplus / deficit (i.e. debt financing), how long do you think the government can continue to spend like this? What can be done to reverse this situation? 2-The largest uninterrupted stretch of deficits came between 1970 and 1997. It's hard to imagine that the United States will post a surplus anytime soon - will we give the 28 year stretch between 1970 and 1997 a run for its money? Any idea who is purchasing all this debt? 3-What is meant by foreign exchange risk? What specific problems does foreign exchange present in an organization? How could an organization needing Euros in six months protect itself from currency fluctuations? 4- There are many variables that may cause problems with foreign exchange. There's a political risk potential in some countries that may have certain political instabilities. How / why might politics impact a countries currency 5-The seller (writer) has the obligation to either buy or sell stock (depending on what type of option he or she sold -- either a call option or a put option) to the buyer at a specified price by a specified date. Any idea what a "naked" call is? .

She adores hats. She is always very polite and respectful of others. She waves to everyone, and consistently avoids conflict. She is a lady; she is The Queen. Without a doubt, Queen Elizabeth lives a life quite unlike everyone else in the World – after all, royalty does have its privileges. Yet, when it comes to investing, the Queen is swimming in the same pool of stock market sharks as us common people. Like everyone else, she pours through her quarterly statements to see how she’s fared. And like everyone else, she loves to make money and simply deplores negative returns. It was rumored that the 2008 crisis hit her particularly hard – over USD 40 million in stock market losses. This experience must have jilted something, as when The Queen was visiting the esteemed London School of Economics she asked the professor a rather “un-queen” like question – why did economists fail to predict the biggest global recession since the Great Depression?

Chapter 13 speaks at length on the topic of Sexual Harassment because it is an obvious example of an abuse of power. Most examples of this are not overtly obvious. Problems today are likely to surface around more subtle forms of sexual harassment--unwanted looks or comments, off-color jokes, sexual artifacts like pinups posted in the workplace, or misinterpretations of where the line between being friendly ends and harassment begins. Assume you are standing with a group of co-workers in the office, all huddled around a cubicle. You are all discussing an episode of your favorite show from the previous night, and some of the content is sexual in nature.

Changes in culture and technology have resulted in patient populations that are often well informed and educated, even before consulting or considering a healthcare need delivered by a health professional. Fueled by this, health professionals are increasingly involving patients in treatment decisions. However, this often comes with challenges, as illnesses and treatments can become complex. What has your experience been with patient involvement in treatment or healthcare decisions? In this Discussion, you will share your experiences and consider the impact of patient involvement (or lack of involvement). You will also consider the use of a patient decision aid to inform best practices for patient care and healthcare decision making. To Prepare: Review the Resources and reflect on a time when you experienced a patient being brought into (or not being brought into) a decision regarding their treatment plan. Review the Ottawa Hospital Research Institute’s Decision Aids Inventory at https://decisionaid.ohri.ca/. Choose “For Specific Conditions,” then Browse an alphabetical listing of decision aids by health topic. NOTE: To ensure compliance with HIPAA rules, please DO NOT use the patient’s real name or any information that might identify the patient or organization/practice.

Cesar’s Last Fast movie. .In 1988, Cesar Chavez embarked on what would be his last act of protest in his remarkable life. Driven in part to pay penance for feeling he had not done enough, Chavez began his "Fast for Life," a 36-day water-only hunger strike, to draw attention to the horrific effects of unfettered pesticide use on farm workers, their families, and their communities. Using never-before-seen footage of Chavez during his fast and testimony from those closest to him, directors Richard Ray Perez and Lorena Parlee weave together the larger story of Chavez's life, vision, and legacy. A deeply religious man, Chavez's moral clarity in organizing and standing with farmworkers at risk of his own life humbled his family, friends, and the world. Please write a reflection paper about the movie 2 pages long. Watch the movie and then write. I need it tomorrow as it is the deadline. Thanks .

Cellular reproduction in Eukaryotes involves either mitosis or, in the case of sex cells, meiosis. Mitosis involves the reproduction of a cell into two identical daughter cells. Meiosis, however, is a reduction division where a parental diploid cell produces four haploid gametes. Upon fusion, two haploid gametes (in humans the sperm and the egg) will result in one diploid zygote. In this activity you will track chromosomes through meiosis using colored beads. .

Cellular Communication: Autocrine, Paracrine or Endocrine? As you are learning, your body and the bodies of all organisms are highly complex, comprised of many different types of cells, each with a vital function that is required for the body’s survival. There are mechanisms that act like lines of communication, allowing different cells to communicate. Messenger molecules serve to coordinate signals between cells and between organs and are described as having autocrine (internal), paracrine (local) or endocrine (system-wide) functions. Without these messenger molecules, how else does your liver know when to produce important proteins for homeostasis? How does your heart know when to beat faster and then slow down? How do your lungs know when to breathe faster? The communications between your brain and organs, and between the different organs must be tightly regulated and controlled. For this discussion board, select two types of messengers that our body uses to communicate between organs or between different cell types. Describe the messengers. Discuss where the messengers are made and what is their function. Are the messengers part of an autocrine, paracrine or endocrine pathway? What would happen if the messengers you have selected were inactive? .
