Your initial post is due on Day 3 (Thursday). You must complete the three tasks detailed below to receive full credit for this discussion. Replies are optional and you have until Day 7 (Monday) to respond to your classmates.
A Carbon-Neutral Community Plan for Ashfordton [WLO: 1] [CLOs: 3, 4, 6]
Imagine that you are a resident of Ashfordton, a community whose characteristics are described below. You have come together with your neighbors for a special meeting to devise a plan for helping the community become carbon-neutral by 2050, meaning that by that time, no net carbon dioxide emissions will be produced by residents as a whole.
Fortunately, you have all showed up to the meeting with lots of knowledge you gained from your readings in this course. Now it is time to put your thinking cap on and get to work! Your plan should consist of the following elements:
Energy conservation measures (e.g., promoting carpooling by adding special lanes to local highways)
Steps to move toward sustainable energy production (e.g., installing solar panels on town government buildings)
Reducing energy consumption will help, but some actions will have to involve switching to other power sources for buildings and vehicles as well.
This week’s discussion will take place in an online app called “Tricider.” There, you will be able to post your ideas for plan components and also share pros and cons of different proposals during the week. Finally, you will be able to vote on what you think should be in the plan.
For directions on how to use the Tricider app, please review the Tricider Help GuidePreview the document. In Tricider, you will be expected to do the following:
Post at least two separate and unique ideas.
Include your full name for each one.
Post at least six different pros and cons for your classmates’ proposed ideas.
Vote on what you feel are the top three ideas in the list.
Do not vote before Friday.
You must complete the three tasks above to receive full credit for this discussion.
Please note: You are welcome to post questions and comments to this board for this instructor; however, this discussion board does not have any posting requirements of its own, and no additional credit will be given for posts made here.
Below, the instructor will post both

Instructions. To get full credits you need to provide a detailed justification of your claims.
1. (Analytical Exercise) Suppose that the United States and Canada produce clothing (C) and
food (F). The U.S. has an endowment of 200 man-hours, each of which can produce either
2 units of clothing or 2 units of food. Canada has an endowment of 300 man-hours, each
of which can produce either 1 unit of clothing or 2 units of food.
(a) Which country has an absolute advantage in each good?
(b) Derive opportunity costs and examine comparative advantages.
i. For each country, what is the opportunity cost of clothing?
ii. For each country, what is the opportunity cost of food?
iii. Which country has a comparative advantage in each good?
(c) Draw the production possibility frontiers for both economies (draw the production
of clothing on the x-axis and of food on the y-axis). Use a different graph for each
economy.
(d) On your graphs in part (c), indicate consumption of goods in each economy. You do
not need to derive exact quantities.
(e) Let PC/PF denote the relative price of clothing. In the following, we will derive the
autarky equilibrium of each economy.
i. For each country, use the production possibility frontiers above to derive the quan-
tity of production of each good.
ii. Put PC/PF on the y-axis and QC/QF on the x-axis of a graph, and draw the
relative supply curves in each economy under autarky. Use a different graph for
each economy.
iii. In each economy, the relative demand is:
DC/DF =
1
(PC/PF )
Solve the equilibrium relative prices and relative quantities in each economy.
iv. Do these curves depend on the economies endowments in terms of number of
man-hours?

(f) Now assume that these economies open up to international trade.
i. Derive the quantity of world production for each good.
ii. The world relative demand is:
DC/DF =
1
(PC/PF )
Solve the equilibrium relative prices and relative quantities in the world economy.
(g) Graphically show the changes in welfare in each economy with free trade. Does inter-
national trade provide mutual benefits to both countries?
(h) Now think about a scenario where the U.S. labor force increased by a factor of 1.5.
i. How does this affect the production possibility frontier for the U.S.?
ii. How does the trade pattern change? Make your argument using changes in com-
parative advantages.
iii. Discuss changes in the world equilibrium with respective to the population growth
in the U.S.
(i) ([Extra Credit] Challenging) Let us go back to the initial population size in the U.S.
But, now assume that productivity changes in the U.S.: each field can produce the
same amount of clothing and food, but this amount is now a variable x > 0 (previously
x = 2). How does the equilibrium trade relative price PC/PF depend on x? Clearly
indicate how to compute PC/PF given any value ...

ETF1100 Business Statistics
Group Assignment – 2021S1
A. How it works
• This project will be undertaken in small groups and involve analysing a data set using the
approaches to quantitative problems you have learnt in this unit.
• The final product will be a set of presentation slides which you will submit via Moodle by Friday
11pm on 14 May 2021 (the end of Week 10). A penalty of 10% per day applies for late
submissions. The assignment should contain no more than 15 slides.
• The slides should show, in an interesting way, the main things you have done and learned in
addressing the main question of the assignment. Usually, you would present these slides to
your workshop members and tutor. However, given there is some uncertainty around COVID-
19, and we have students in Melbourne and overseas, you will not actually present the slides
this semester.
• The assignment is structured such that it gives groups some freedom to explore the problem
in ways they see fit. There is no single correct answer for the assignment. It is a research project
and different groups will approach things differently. This is encouraged.
• Students have been put in groups based on their preferences. All group members will generally
be enrolled in the same workshop. There will be around 5 members in each group (though
some groups may have more or less members than this). You should get in touch with your
group members, organise to meet regularly and share ideas and the workload. It can be
challenging, but also rewarding, to work in groups. The assignment is aimed at building your
groupwork experience as well as fostering contact with your peers in this unit. If you find you
are not in a group, then contact us as soon as possible. Also, it is possible that some of your
allocated group members may have dropped the unit, or you may find that your group
members may not be entirely cooperative. If you email someone and do not get a response,
then proceed with the remaining group members.
• All group members must contribute to the assignment. There will be an opportunity to give
feedback on the contributions of other members of your group, and this feedback will be used
when allocating an individual’s final mark for this assessment. If you do not participate fully in
the assignment, and cooperate with your group members, then you should expect your grade
to be adjusted downwards as a result.
• The project is worth 18% of your final mark and your grade will depend on the quality and
content of your presentation slides as well as your participation in the assignment. See the
marking guide at the end of this document.
• You will receive written feedback on the assignment. In addition, we will run a workshop where
the tutor will talk through each of the assignments submitted by groups in the workshop. This
will provide useful feedback to you. It will also to be helpful, I think, to see how others
approached the exercise.

Chips or Salsa?
In this assignment, you will demonstrate your ability to draw a simple production possibilities curve given data on the quantity of one input (labor) and the amount of labor required to produce each of two outputs (bags of chips and cases of salsa). You should also be able to identify the opportunity cost of one good in terms of the other as the slope of the Production Possibilities Frontier. You will explain your analysis of the figures to explain why it’s not possible to produce combinations of the two goods outside the PPF.
Chips or Salsa?
Suppose a nation has a total of 12 units of labor, which can be used to produce either chips or salsa.
One bag of chips takes 2 units of labor to produce and one case of salsa takes 6 units of labor to produce.
· Explain why scarcity exists in this economy. Use the data as evidence of your reasoning.
· What is the maximum quantity of chip bags that can be produced?
· What is the maximum quantity of salsa cases than can be produced?
· Draw the nation’s production possibility frontier.
· What is the opportunity cost of bags of chips in this nation?
· Explain why the nation can’t produce both 4 bags of chips and 3 cases of salsa.
· Explain why the nation shouldn’t produce both 2 bag of chips and 1 cases of salsa.

In this assignment, you will design an educational pamphlet to describe
the impact of a growing human population to the environment, the
effects of the population on natural resources, and alternative materials
individuals can use to reduce the stress on natural resources.
Resource: Brochure Builder
In recent years, there have been growing concerns about the effects of
human population on the environment, especially in areas of increasing
population growth such as India. One of the ramifications of greater-
density populations is the strain on natural resources and the
environmental health of the world. Much of the strain on the world’s
natural resources is due to the increase in the disposing of
nonbiodegradable trash. The decomposition of plastics can never occur
at the level of a paper bag.
Create a 5-panel educational pamphlet that includes the following
information:
♣ Define natural resources, environmental health, and the world/global
community.
9. ♣ Describe the Pacific Trash Vortex, its location, its effect on the water
cycle, and ramifications to the environment.
♣ Explain how human activity can promote a responsible use of natural
