Answer to Question 1

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.

Answer to Question 2

FALSE
