What is the Heckscher-Ohlin theorem? Using the case studies in
the chapter on U.S. trade with China describe the theory and the
resulting trade patterns that would support it.
Once trade opens up in a two country two commodity model
of the Heckscher-Ohlin theorem, what happens to the prices of the
two commodities in each country? What happens to the returns to the
factors of production in each country?
Explain how the Heckscher-Ohlin theorem supports international
trade between nations.
2. What is international price equalization? give examples
3. explain two differences between the new trade theory and the
traditional trade theory.
4. Explain why America is better suited to export computers
while Kenya is better suited to produce hides-and-skin
5. Explain why the infant-industry argument is valid.
6. Explain one reason why the U.S. dollar has higher value than
the Indian Ruppies in the international exchange rate
marketplace.

Explain in your own words (50 words maximum) each
concept below:a) The Ricardian Model vs. the Heckscher-Ohlin Trade Model.b) Shallow vs. Deep Integrationc) The OLI Theory
) State the Heckscher-Ohlin (H-O) Theorem, and explain what it
means. What are the initial assumptions? Use diagrams with PPFs,
indifference curves, and price lines to demonstrate the H-O theorem
and to show the existence of (A) Comparative advantage and (B)
Gains from trade. What happens to the production of each good in
each country under free trade as opposed to autarky?
Briefly explain what the Heckscher-Ohlin Theorem is about, what
the limitations are, and why economists use this model to analyze
trade pattern between two countries. Additionally, research two
countries and describe the trade pattern between the two countries
chosen. Can you apply the HO Theorem to the trade patterns? Why or
why not? Minumum word count: 650 words
