B. after they are fully trained; before the training period is over
C. within unskilled occupations; into high-skill jobs
D. domestically; internationally - Answer-D. domestically; internationally
Suppose that the United States and China each produce steel and cloth. In the
Heckscher-Ohlin model, if the United States enjoys a comparative advantage in steel
production, then:
A. the United States must have an absolute advantage in steel production.
B. the United States will also have a comparative advantage in cloth production.
C. China must have a comparative advantage in cloth production.
D. China must have an absolute advantage in cloth production. - Answer-C. China must
have a comparative advantage in cloth production.
The implication of resources being mobile domestically is that:
A. labor is paid the same wage and capital receives the same rental price in all
domestic industries
B. there is often unemployment
C. they lose the chance to become guest workers in other nations.
D. capital and land are often not suited for use in other industries - Answer-A. labor is
paid the same wage and capital receives the same rental price in all domestic industries
The Heckscher-Ohlin model assumes that a nation's two industries use labor and
capital:
A. at different intensities depending on changing technology.
B. at the same intensity in each industry; that is, the capital-labor ratio is the same in
each industry.
C. at different intensities, with one being more capital-intensive than the other.
, D. in no definite pattern. - Answer-C. at different intensities, with one being more capital-
intensive than the other.

A. There are increasing opportunity costs of producing more of each good.
B. Labor is specific to the production of the other good.
C. Labor is not perfectly mobile between the production of the two goods.
D. Capital is specific to the production of one good. - Answer-A. There are increasing
opportunity costs of producing more of each good.
There are many real-life examples of factor-intensity (the ratio of capital to labor)
differences in the same industries in different nations. How does the Heckscher-Ohlin
model handle this?
A. Factor-intensity differences do not change the predictive value of the model.
B. The Heckscher-Ohlin model ignores the possibility of different factor intensities and
instead assumes that each industry has the same factor intensity in every nation.
C. The Heckscher-Ohlin model makes no assumptions about different factor intensities.
D. The Heckscher-Ohlin model assumes that all firms require equal amounts of capital
and labor just to be on the safe side. - Answer-B. The Heckscher-Ohlin model ignores
the possibility of different factor intensities and instead assumes that each industry has
the same factor intensity in every nation.
According to the short-run (specific-factors) model, how will FDI affect the marginal
productivity of labor in the recipient nation?
A. The MPL will rise only in the production of the labor-intensive good.
B. The MPL will fall in the production of both the labor- and capital-intensive goods.
C. The MPL will rise only in the production of the capital-intensive good.
D. The MPL will rise in the production of both the labor- and capital-intensive goods. -
Answer-D. The MPL will rise in the production of both the labor- and capital-intensive
goods.
