Answer to Question 1

If the firm has numerous production facilities close to their various international markets, trade costs will be relatively low. However, when there are numerous production facilities, each will be relatively small, and opportunities for economies of scale will be foregone.

Answer to Question 2

Explanation: At best, recent tests provide mixed evidence on the question and largely negative evidence on the general validity of the Heckscher-Ohlin model.
