Consider the world with two countries: Country A and Country B. There are two states of the world: State 1 and State 2. In State 1, output of Country A is $100 billion, and output of Country B is $80 billion. In State 2, output of Country A is $70 billion, and output of Country B is $120 billion. Assume that the share of labor income in output is 70% for Country A and 60% for Country B, respectively.

a.)Derive the income distribution in each country in each state when there is no foreign direct investment.

b.)Consider foreign direct investment such that residents in each country hold 50% of domestic portfolio and 50% of foreign portfolio. Derive the income distribution in each country in each state in this case.

c.)Based on your answers in Parts (a) and (b), does foreign direct investment help residents in the two countries diversify income risk? Explain your reasoning.

Fiscal Policy Actions

This rubric element wants you to examine what the fiscal policy initiatives were going forward, to respond to the changing economic landscape.

•You should specifically state what the intent of the actions were - for instance, it could be to decrease unemployment.

•Then, use our macroeconomic principles and models (like the AD-AS model or Keynesian consumption function) to explain why the action would lead to the outcome desired by the government.

•Keep the main points (and any use of graphs to show the economic models) on the slide and use the speaker notes to add full explanation.

I need the above explained/answered for the period of 1950-1960's. Any help would be appreciated - thanks!

This is for a discussion so can be short response.
