6. The country of Pugelovia has an endowment of 20 units of labor and 5 units of land, whereas the rest of the world has 80 units of labor and 10 units of land. Based on your calculation, is Pugelovia labor or land abundant? _________________
Write down the pre trade price rations, labor capital ratios and the w/r before trade! Given that Wheat is land intensive (x) and cloth is labor intensive (y), write explain and illustrate – (1) Which country has a comparative advantage in the production of which good, and therefore establishing the pattern of trade, (2) Draw the pre trade prices before and after trade. (3) The pre and post trade consumption and finally (4) the trade triangle!
7. A country in Latin America, exports coffee (x) and imports other goods (y). It is a small supplier of coffee. A long term drought now reduces coffee production in the countries of this region. Assume that they still remain exporters of coffee. Illustrate clearly on a diagram, why this long term drought in this small country, may result in decreasing the welfare of this country.

Kim is a 27-year-old woman who recently moved from a small
town in Texas to work in the city of Dallas as a reporter for one
of the major newspapers. She is 5’6” tall and weighs 115 lb. To
keep in shape she likes to jog, which she did regularly in her
hometown. She doesn’t know anyone in Dallas and has been
lonely for her family since arriving. But she has moved into a
small apartment in a quiet neighborhood and hopes to meet
young people soon though her work and church.
On the first Saturday morning after she moved into her new
apartment, Kim decided to get up early and go jogging. It was
still dark out, but Kim was not afraid. She had been jogging
alone in the dark many times in her hometown. She donned her
jogging clothes and headed down the quiet street toward a nearby
park. As she entered the park, an individual came out from a
dense clump of bushes, put a knife to her throat, and ordered her
to the ground. She was raped and beaten unconscious. She
remained in that condition until sunrise when she was found by
another jogger who called emergency services, and Kim was
taken to the nearest emergency department. Upon regaining
consciousness, Kim was hysterical, but a sexual assault nurse
examiner (SANE) was called to the scene, and Kim was assigned
to a quiet area of the hospital, where the post-rape examination
was initiated.
Answer the following questions related to Kim:
1. What are the initial nursing interventions for Kim?
2. What treatments must the nurse ensure that Kim is aware
are available for her?
3. What nursing diagnosis would the nurse expect to focus on
with Kim in follow-up care?

You and your spouse have found your town home in San Marcos, CA. The selling price is $360,000; you will put $60,000 down and obtain a 30–year fixed-rate mortgage at 7.25% for the rest.
3. Refer to above.
Assume that monthly payments begin in one month. What will each payment be?
A. $2,325.01
B. $2,046.53
C. $1,876.48
D. $1,938.72
E. $2,173.46
4. Refer to above. Although you will get a 30-year mortgage, you plan to prepay the loan by making an additional payment each month along with your regular payment. How much extra must you pay each month if you wish to pay off the loan in 20 years? (Hint: first, compute the monthly payments as if it were a 20 year-year loan, then calculate the difference)
A. $548.38
B. $413.75
C. $383.62
D. $276.34
E. $324.67
5. Refer to above. Your banker suggests that, rather than obtaining a 30-year mortgage and paying it off early, you should simply obtain a 15-year loan for the same amount. The rate on this loan is 7%. By how much will your monthly payment be (higher/lower) for the 15-year loan than the regular payment be (higher/lower) for the 15-year loan than the regular payment on the 30-year loan?
A. Lower; $311.57
B. Lower; $554.72
C. Higher; $485.26
