International Trade Assignment (ONLY COMPLETE QUESTIONS #2, 3) 1) Consider a simple world in which there are two Continue the analysis of Atlantis and Beltran countries, Atlantis and Beltran, each producing two trading at the rate of 1 unit of food for 1 unit of goods, food and cloth. The production possibility cloth. frontier for each country is given in the table below. a) Assuming a constant opportunity cost in each country, complete the table. b) What is the opportunity cost of food in Atlantis?

(2) Suppose that Atlantis and Beltran engage in trade. @In which good will each country specialize? b) If 1 unit of food trades for I unit of cloth, what will happen to the production of each good in each country? If 1 unit of food trades for 1 unit of cloth, draw 10 the consumption possibility frontiers for each country on the corresponding graph from prob- lem 1(d). d Before trade, if Atlantis consumed 600 units of food, the most cloth it could consume was 200 units. After trade, how many units of cloth can be consumed if 600 units of food are consumed
