Essay Questions

1.Why is it that if an industry were operating under conditions of domestic internal scale economies

(applies to firm in the country) —then the resultant equilibrium cannot be consistent with the

pure competition model?

Answer: Because once one firm became bigger than another, or if one firm began the industry, then no other firm would be able to match its per unit cost, so that they would be driven out

of the industry.

2.Is it possible that if positive scale economies characterize an industry, that its equilibrium may be

consistent with purely competitive conditions? Explain how this could happen.

Answer: Yes. If the scale economies were external to the firm, then there is no reason why the firms may not be in perfect competition.

3.If a scale economy is the dominant technological factor defining or establishing comparative

advantage, then the underlying facts explaining why a particular country dominates world markets

in some product may be pure chance, or historical accident. Explain, and compare this with the

answer you would give for the Heckscher-Ohlin model of comparative advantage.

Answer: This statement is true, since the reason the seller is a monopolist may be that it

happened to have been the first to produce this product in this country. It may have no

connection to any supply or demand related factors; nor to any natural or man-made

availability. This is all exactly the opposite of the Heckscher-Ohlin Neo- Classical

model ' s

explanation of the determinants of comparative advantage.

4.It is possible that trade based on external scale economies may leave a country worse off than it

would have been without trade. Explain how this could happen.

Answer: One answer is that the terms of trade effects may dominate any other factors.

5.If scale economies were not only external to firms, but were also external to individual countries.

That is, the larger the worldwide industry (regardless of where firms or plants are located), the

cheaper would be the per-unit cost of production. Describe what world trade would look like in

this case.

Answer: Presumably each country would specialize in some component of the final product. This would result in much observed intra-industry trade.

6.Why are increasing returns to scale and fixed costs important in models of international trade and

monopolistic competition?

Answer: There are many answers. Three of these are

(a)Increasing returns to scale, and high fixed costs may be inconsistent with perfect competition.

In such a case, the initial autarkic state may be a suboptimal equilibrium. For example,

relative prices may not equal marginal rates of transformation. It follows from this that a

change in output compositions associated with trade may result in a national welfare for one or

both trading countries that is inferior to that associated with the initial autarkic

conditions. Hence no “ gains from trade.

(b)In a case of increasing scale economies at the firm or plant level, the determination of which

product will be exported by which country is ex-ante indeterminate. Therefore, deriving clear

implications concerning the effects of trade on income distributions such as may be derived

from the Samuelson-Stolper Theorem is no longer generally possible.

(c)Market structures containing positive scale economies and imperfect competition may allow for

“-wtawyotrade, ” or i-nintrdaustry trade. As in b. above, the various theorems derivable from the Heckscher-Ohlin model concerning directions of trade and income

distributions are no longer generally applicable.

7.Explain why it may be argued that the relative importance of the intra-industry component of world

trade is likely to lessen economic strife or confrontation (a la Stolper-Samuelson) associated with

commercial policy within countries in which overall trade is expanding?

Answer: In the case of the Neo-Classical H-O model, the expansion of trade will tend to increase the incomes of those factors in which the exports are relatively intense. This may create situations in which

unskilled labor 's already relatively low relative incomes would

worsen in a country such as the U.S., hence heating up “ class warfare. ” In

the

intra-industry trade, the expanding exports will tend to be in relatively fragmented subsets of

products ( “ brands ”). Such export expansion will have no determinant or systematic tendency to

affect relative factor returns in any deterministic manner.

8.Explain why positive economies of scale in one (of two) sectors may establish a comparative

advantage for the large (as compared to the small) country in the production of the commodity which exhibits positive scale economies.

Answer: In the case of the H-O model, the actual size of the country is irrelevant in the determination of the direction of trade (though it may affect the equilibrium terms of trade). When positive scale

economies apply to the production of one product, the country that can devote more resources (in

absolute terms) will be able to sell that product cheaper, and therefore will be more like ly to

gain a “ revealed ” comparative

advantage in that product. This will be the country with more factors (both labor and capital) —

the larger country.

Quantitative/Graphing Problems

1.The figure above represents the demand and cost functions facing a Brazilian Steel producing

monopolist. If it were unable to export, and was constrained by its domestic market, what quantity would it sell at what price?

Answer: It would sell 5 (million tons) at a price of $8/ton.

2.Now the monopolist discovers that it can export as much as it likes of its steel at the world price of

$5/ton. It will therefore expand for-export production up to the point where its marginal cost equals $5.

How much steel will the monopolist sell, and at what price?

Answer: It would sell 10 million tons at $5/ton.

3.Given the opportunity to sell at world prices, the marginal (opportunity) cost of selling a ton

domestically is what?

Answer: $5/ton.

4.While selling exports it would also maximize its domestic sales by equating its marginal

(opportunity) cost to its marginal revenue of $5. How much steel would the firm sell domestically, and at what price?

Answer: 4 million tons at $10/ton.

5.The Brazilian firm is charging its foreign (U.S.) customers one half the price it is charging its

domestic customers. Is this good or bad for the real income or economic welfare of the

United States? Is the Brazilian firm engaged in dumping? Is this predatory behavior on the part

of the Brazilian steel company?

Answer: Good. Yes, if you define dumping as selling abroad at a price lower than domestically. No, if by dumping you mean selling below marginal cost. No —this is not being done in order to capture

market shares, but rather is “ mere ” static profit maximization

beha

as is expected of any self-respecting monopolist.

国际经济学课后答案解析

第一章绪论 1、列举出体现当前国际经济学问题的一些重要事件,他们为什么重要?他们都是怎么影响中国与欧、美、日的经济和政治关系的?当前的国际金融危机最能体现国际经济学问题,其深刻地影响了世界各国的金融、实体经济、政治等领域,也影响了各国之间的关系因此显得尤为重要;其对中国与欧、美、日的政治和经济关系的影响为:减少中国对上述国家的出口,影响中国外汇储备,贸易摩擦加剧,经济联系加强,因而也会导致中国与上述国家在政治上的对话与合作。 2、我们如何评价一国与他国之间的相互依赖程度?我们可以通过一国的对外贸易依存度来评价该国与他国之间的相互依赖程度,也可以通过其他方式来评价比如一国政府政策的溢出效应和回震效应以及对外贸易对国民生活水平的影响。 3、国际贸易理论及国际贸易政策研究的内容是什么?为什么说他们是国际经济学的微观方面?国际贸易理论分析贸易的基础和所得,国际贸易政策考察贸易限制和新保护主义的原因和效果。国际贸易理论和政策是国际经济学的微观方面,因为他们把国家看作基本单位,并研究单个商品的(相对)价格。 4、什么是外汇交易市场及国际收支平衡表?调节国际收支平衡意味着什么?为什么说他们是国际经济学的宏观方面?什么是宏观开放经济学及国际金融?外汇交易市场描述一国货币与他国货币交换的框架,国际收支平衡表测度了一国与外部世界交易的总收入与总支出的情况。调节国际收支平衡意味着调节一国与外部世界交易出现的不均衡(赤字或盈余);由于国际收支平衡表涉及总收入和总支出,调节政策影响国家收入水平和价格总指数,因而他们是国际经济学的宏观方面;外汇交易及国际收支平衡调节涉及总收入和总支出,调整政策影响国家收入水平和价格总指数,这些内容被称为宏观开放经济学或国际金融。 5、浏览报刊并做下列题目:(1)找出5条有关国际经济学的新闻(2)每条新闻对中国经济的重要性或影响(3)每条新闻对你个人有何影响 A (1) 国际金融危机: 影响中国整体经济,降低出口、增加失业、经济减速等 (2) 美国大选:影响中美未来经济政治关系 (3) 石油价格持续下跌:影响中国的能源价格及相关产业 (4) 可口可乐收购汇源被商务部否决:《反垄断法》的第一次实施,加强经济法治 (5) 各国政府经济刺激方案:对中国经济产生外部性效应B 以上5条新闻对个人影响为:影响个人消费水平和就业前景 第二章比较优势理论 1、重商主义者的贸易观点如何?他们的国家财富概念与现在有何不同?重商主义者主张政府应当竭尽所能孤立出口,不主张甚至限制商品(尤其是奢侈类消费品)。重商主义者认为国家富强的方法是尽量使出口大于进口,而出超的结果是金银等贵重金属流入,而一个国家拥有越多的金银,就越富有越强大。现在认为一个国家生产力即生产商品的能力越高则一国越富强 2、亚当.斯密主张的贸易基础和贸易模式分别是什么?贸易所得是如何产生的?斯密倡导什么样的国际贸易基础?他认为政府在经济生活中的适当功能是什么?亚当.斯密主张的贸易基础是绝对优势;贸易模式为两国通过专门生产自己有绝对优势的产品并用其中一部分来交换器有绝对劣势的商品。通过生产绝对优势商品并交换,资源可以被最有效的使用,而且两种商品的产出会有很大的增长,通过交换就会消费比以前更多的商品从而产生了贸易所得;斯密倡导自由贸易,主张自由放任也就是政府尽可能少干涉经济

克鲁格曼国际经济学第八版上册课后答案

Overview of Section II: International Trade Policy Section II of the text is comprised of four chapters: Chapter 8The Instruments of Trade Policy Chapter 9The Political Economy of Trade Policy Chapter 10Trade Policy in Developing Countries Chapter 11Controversies in Trade Policy n Section II Overview Trade policy issues figure prominently in current political debates and public policy discussions. The first two chapters of this section of the text are concerned with the instruments of trade policy and the arguments for free trade and managed trade. The second two chapters consider these concepts in the context of specific sets of countries that face common problems. Throughout, the use of case studies provides the student with real world examples that clearly illustrate the theoretical arguments. Chapter 8 discusses various instruments of trade policy including tariffs, quotas, voluntary export restraints, and local content requirements. The effects of these policies on prices and trade volumes are determined in the context of a partial equilibrium framework. The chapter reviews the analytical tools of consumer and producer surplus, and uses these tools to consider the welfare effects of various protectionist measures. The specific incidents of trade restrictions presented as case studies include import quotas on sugar entering United States markets, voluntary export restraints on Japanese autos, and oil import quotas. Chapter 9 presents the set of ideas known as the political economy of trade theory. These ideas enable you to understand why certain trade restrictions exist, despite the force of general economic arguments which suggest that they reduce aggregate welfare. Possible motivations for trade restrictions are identified as those which increase national welfare, such as the optimum tariff, and those which foster either income

国际经济学第十版课后答案(萨尔瓦多、杨冰译)

国际经济学(第十版)多米尼克.萨尔瓦多(著) P16页练习题 6.(1)根据消费者需求理论,当其他条件不变时,一种商品价格的提高(如由于税率的上浮所致),会带来需求量的什么变化? 答:根据消费者需求理论,当其他条件不变时,一种商品价格的提高,则该商品的需求量将会下降。 (2)根据消费者需求理论,一种进口商品价格的提高(如由于进口关税的上浮所致),会带来需求量的什么变化? 答:根据消费者需求理论,一种进口商品价格的提高,则该商品的出口量将会下降。 7.(1)一国政府如何能消除或减少预算赤字? 答:一国政府可以通过减少政府支出、增加税收,来消除或者减少预算赤字。(2)一个国家如何能消除或减少贸易逆差? 答:一个国家要消除或减少其贸易逆差的方式有:对进口商品增税、补贴出口,借如更多的国外债券、减少借出外国债券,降低该国的国民收入水平。 8.(1)国际经济关系与地区经济关系有何区别? 答:在国际经济关系下,国家通常限制在国际间的自由流动的货物、服务和因素,不同的语言、消费习惯和法律规定同样也阻碍了它们在国际间的流动,此外,国际收支会在各种货币收据和付款中流通。 而在地区经济关系下,就关税和进行相同的货币而言,区际流动的货物、服务和因素没有面临这样的限制因素,它们经常是在同样的语言环境下,在类似的消费习惯和法律规定下进行的,这就与国际经济关系形成了鲜明对比。 (2)它们在哪方面相似? 答:国际经济关系和地区经济关系的相似点:两者都跨越了空间距离,事实上,它们都是在远距离贸易下的产物,把经济看待成在一个进行着生产、交换和消费的空间中的单一点,这也是从经济学的复位空间将它们区分。 1

国际经济学复习课后答案

第一章练习与答案 1.为什么说生产和消费只取决于相对价格? 答:经济主体的经济行为考虑的是所有商品的价格,而不是单一价格因素。 3.在只有两种商品的情况下,当一个商品达到均衡时,另外一个商品是否也同时达到均衡?试解释原因。 答案:是 4.如果生产可能性边界是一条直线,试确定过剩供给(或需求)曲线。 答案提示: 5.如果改用Y商品的过剩供给曲线(B国)和过剩需求曲线(A国)来确定国际均衡价格,那么所得出的结果与图1—13中的结果是否一致? 答案提示:不一定一致,x商品的价格是Px/Py,而y商品的价格是Py/Px. 7.如果国际贸易发生在一个大国和一个小国之间,那么贸易后,国际相对价格更接近于哪一个国家在封闭下的相对价格水平? 答案提示:贸易后,国际相对价格将更接近于大国在封闭下的相对价格水平。 8.根据上一题的答案,你认为哪个国家在国际贸易中福利改善程度更为明显些? 答案提示:小国。 第二章答案 1.根据下面两个表中的数据,确定(1)贸易前的相对价格;(2)比较优势型态。 表1 X、Y的单位产出所需的劳动投入

A B X Y 6 2 15 12 表2 X、Y的单位产出所需的劳动投入 A B X Y 10 4 5 5 答案提示:首先将劳动投入转化为劳动生产率,然后应用与本章正文中一样的方法进行比较。(表2-2(a)和表2-2(b)部分的内容) 2.假设A、B两国的生产技术条件如下所示,那么两国还有进行贸易的动机吗?解释原因。 表3 X、Y的单位产出所需的劳动投入 A B X Y 4 2 8 4 答案提示:从绝对优势来看,两国当中A国在两种产品中都有绝对优势;从比较优势来看,两国不存在相对技术差异。所以,两国没有进行国际贸易的动机。 3.如果一国在某一商品上具有绝对优势,那么也必具有比较优势吗? 答案提示:不一定,比较优势的确定原则是两优取最优,两劣取最劣。

克鲁格曼《国际经济学》中文版·第九版 课后习题答案

克鲁格曼《国际经济学》中文版·第九版课后习题答案 第一章练习与答案 1.为什么说在决定生产和消费时,相对价格比绝对价格更重要? 答案提示:当生产处于生产边界线上,资源则得到了充分利用,这时,要想增加某一产品的生产,必须降低另一产品的生产,也就是说,增加某一产品的生产是有机会机本(或社会成本)的。生产可能性边界上任何一点都表示生产效率和充分就业得以实现,但究竟选择哪一点,则还要看两个商品的相对价格,即它们在市场上的交换比率。相对价格等于机会成本时,生产点在生产可能性边界上的位置也就确定了。所以,在决定生产和消费时,相对价格比绝对价格更重要。 2.仿效图1—6和图1—7,试推导出Y商品的国民供给曲线和国民需求曲线。 答案提示: 3.在只有两种商品的情况下,当一个商品达到均衡时,另外一个商品是否也同时达到均衡? 试解释原因。 答案提示: 4.如果生产可能性边界是一条直线,试确定过剩供给(或需求)曲线。 答案提示: 5.如果改用Y商品的过剩供给曲线(B国)和过剩需求曲线(A国)来确定国际均衡价格,那么所得出的结果与图1—13中的结果是否一致? 答案提示:国际均衡价格将依旧处于贸易前两国相对价格的中间某点。 6.说明贸易条件变化如何影响国际贸易利益在两国间的分配。 答案提示:一国出口产品价格的相对上升意味着此国可以用较少的出口换得较多的进口产品,有利于此国贸易利益的获得,不过,出口价格上升将不利于出口数量的增加,有损于出口国的贸易利益;与此类似,出口商品价格的下降有利于出口商品数量的增加,但是这意味着此国用较多的出口换得较少的进口产品。对于进口国来讲,贸易条件变化对国际贸易利益的影响是相反的。 7.如果国际贸易发生在一个大国和一个小国之间,那么贸易后,国际相对价格更接近于哪一个国家在封闭下的相对价格水平? 答案提示:贸易后,国际相对价格将更接近于大国在封闭下的相对价格水平。 8.根据上一题的答案,你认为哪个国家在国际贸易中福利改善程度更为明显些? 答案提示:小国。 9*.为什么说两个部门要素使用比例的不同会导致生产可能性边界曲线向外凸? 答案提示: 第二章答案 1.根据下面两个表中的数据,确定(1)贸易前的相对价格;(2)比较优势型态。

国际经济学第六章

Chapter 6 The Standard Trade Model 一、选择题 1、“在一个贸易快速增长的国家中,新资本的迅速积累会使该国进口更多的自然资源。”隐含于这一论断的定理是: A.赫克歇尔—俄林定理。 B.斯托伯—萨缪尔森定理。 C.罗伯津斯基定理。 D.要素价格均等化定理。 2、如果一国在资本密集型产品的生产方面具有比较优势,而且,资本增长的速度快于其他投入品(如劳动力)的增长速度,那么,根据贸易理论,由此而导致的增长模式为:A.进口替代。 B.资本密集型商品和其他贸易商品均衡增长。 C.出口扩张。 D.以上三者都不对。 3、贫困化增长的一个必要条件为: A.国家的增长偏向于出口产业。 B.外国对该国的出口需求具有价格弹性。 C.国家的消费偏好高度偏向于出口商品。 D.贸易在国民经济中比重不大。 4、赫克歇尔—俄林理论成功地解释了: A.发生于美国之外的产品创新过程和产业的布局与发展。 B.出口和进口同类产品的国家变得更为重要。 C.由于在要素禀赋方面的类似性,美国和加拿大之间的贸易在日益增加。 D.具有不同要素禀赋的工业化国家和发展中国家之间的贸易模式。 二、问答题 1、在某些情况下,相对供给和价格的变动之间可能没有联系。例如,如果生产要素在部门之间完全不可流动,生产可能性边界就成了直角形状,两种产品的产出不取决于它们的相对价格。在这种情况下,贸易条件的改善是否会提高一国的福利水平?画图分析。 2、和供给方面要素不可流动性相当的就是需求方面的产品不可替代性。试想一个国家的消费者购买的产品的比例是固定的。例如,不论两种产品的相对价格是多少,每买1磅粮食就买1码布。画图分析贸易条件的改善是否会提高这个国家的福利水平。 3、日本原本出口制造品进口原材料如石油、粮食。分析以下情况下日本贸易条件的变化:(1)中东战争使石油供应紧缺。 (2)韩国扩展了汽车的生产能力,并在美国和加拿大进行销售。 (3)美国的工程师建立了核反应堆以代替石油燃料发电厂。 (4)俄罗斯农业歉收。 (5)日本降低牛肉和柑橘的进口关税。

第一章国际经济学教案导论(可编辑修改word版)

一、国际经济学的含义 第一章绪论 第一节国际经济学的产生与发展 研究开放条件下的生产、交换行为以及价格、货币和宏观政策。由国际贸易经济学和国际货币经济学组成。(研究世界范围内商品、服务和资本的生产、分配和消费活动的学科) 二、国际经济学的产生 1、家政学:家庭是经济行为的基本单位,追求在收入既定情况下的福利最大化。 家政学――家庭―――收入既定福利最大 2、微观经济学:微观经济学以企业为经济活动中心,研究企业在资源既定的条件下获得最大的利润,消费者在收入既定的条件下获得最大的效用。 微观经济学着重探讨生产什么、为谁生产、如何生产。 3、宏观经济学:研究国民经济,对一个国家的经济总量(如经济增长、就业等)进行分析。宏观经济的目标包括经济增长、充分就业、稳定物价和国际收支平衡。 4、国际经济学 随着历史的发展,国家间的经济往来日益频繁,彼此经济关系日益紧密,国家于是成为国际经济往来和活动的主体,出现了各种国际经济往来的形式,国际经济因而产生。为了探讨国际经济关系的内在联系,就有必要产生独立的经济学分支学科,即国际经济学。 国际经济学是西方经济学的一般理论在国际经济中的延伸和应用,是西方经济学的分支 学科。 国际经济学的两大特征 (1)国际交易不同于国内交易。国际交易中普遍存在对贸易和要素流动的自然的和人为的阻碍。如,劳动力和资本在国家间的流动性远远低于其在一国之内自由流动的程度;关税和非关税壁垒在一国之内一般是不存在的;各国使用不同的货币,使得国际交易远比国内交易复杂得多。 (2)国际经济关系发生在各个独立的经济实体之间。各国政府制定政策考虑的往往是本国的福利和稳定,而非全世界的福利和稳定,因此往往导致在一国看来是最佳的选择,而在世界范围内看并非最佳;此外,经济间的连锁机制使得一国的经济政策,如财政政策和货币政策,不仅会影响着本国的资源配置,同时还会影响他国的资源配置。 三、国际经济学的发展 1、国际贸易理论的发展 (1)古典贸易理论:斯密的绝对优势理论、李嘉图的比较优势理论 (2)新古典贸易理论:国际贸易理论的标准模型、H-O 模型 (3)当代贸易理论:打破了已往的“规模收益不变和完全竞争”的基本假设,研究重点由国家间的差异转向市场结构和厂商行为方面,着重研究不完全竞争市场下国际贸易的新特点以及贸易政策。 2、国际金融理论的发展 (1)金本位制下的“价格-铸币流动机制” (2)布雷顿森林体系下的国际收支收入调节机制 (3)浮动汇率下的国际收支货币分析方法 (4)开放经济动态变化的跨时分析方法
