1 Trade in the Global Economy

1. In this question, you are asked to update the numbers for world trade that are shown in Table 1-1.
Go to the World Trade Organization’s website at wto.org, and under “Documents, data and
resources,” look for “Statistics” and “WTO Data Portal”; you can also find this site directly by
going to data.wto.org. In the Indicators menu, choose “International trade statistics,” where you
will expand the menu and choose only “Merchandise trade values” and expand it to choose
“Merchandise exports by product group and destination – annual (million U.S. dollars).” (Hint:
You can use the Deselect All button to eliminate choices that you do not want, and then choose
only the variables that you do want.) In the menus for Reporting Economy and Partner
Economy, choose the following regions: World; Africa; Asia; Australia and New Zealand;
Commonwealth of Independent States; Europe; Middle East; North America; and South and
Central America and the Caribbean. In the menu for Product/Sector, expand it to choose only
“Total Merchandise.” Finally, choose the most recent year for which trade data are available.
Then click “Apply” on the right screen to show the values of these trade flows between
regions, which you can download to Excel if you wish, and answer the following questions:

a. What is the value of World exports to the World? (Even if you choose 2018, you will not
get the same total as in Figure 1-2, because the sources of the data are different.)
Answer: $17.7 trillion as of 2017.

this?

e. What is the total value of exports from Europe and the Americas, and what percentage of
the world total is this?
Answer: $(586  2,377  6,506)  $9,469 billion , or 53.4% of the world total
($9,469/17,729  53.4%) .
