Hello, Hope all is well. In Layman Terms, please help construct a production possibility frontier curve on a graph with R & D as y-axis and components on X-Axis illustrating a no-trde equilibrium for a US automobile producer firm(Home firm). On a tangent now,, my amaeteur nderstanding of the no-trade equilibrium is quoted here." the PPF shows the combinations of components and R&D that can be produced by said firm with a given amount of labor and capital. in the absence of offshore/outsourcing the firm produces at A. I know A is the relative price and it using quantity Qc of components and Qr of R & D to produce at an indifference curve of Y 0 of the final good. I don't understand how you analyze indifference curves or utility, as it relates to gains from trade in a no trade equilibrium or the purpose of the demand curve. please help answer this question using your expert knowledge.

4. Consider a U.S. firm's production of automobiles, including research and development and compo- nent production. a. Starting from a no-trade equilibrium in a PPF diagram, illustrate the gains from offshoring if the United States has a comparative advantage in component production. b. Now suppose that advances in engineering abroad decrease the relative price of research and development. Illustrate this change on your diagram and state the implications for produc- tion in the United States.R&D Home firm PPF Relative price of components = (Pc/PR) A No-trade Home firm equilibrium No-Trade Equilibrium for the Home Firm The PPF shows the combinations of components and R&D that can be produced by a firm with a given amount of labor and capital. In the absence of offshoring, the firm produces at A, using quantity Qc of components and QR of R&D to produce Home firm amount Yo of the final good. The line tangent to isoquants the isoquant at point A measures the value that the firm puts on components relative to R&D, or their relative price, (Pc/PR)A. Amount Y, of the Components final good cannot be produced in the absence of offshoring because it lies outside the firm's PPF
