Question 2

Suppose, as a result of various dynamic factors associated with exposure to international competition, Albania's economy grew, and is now represented by the rightmost production possibility frontier in the figure above.
 
  If its point of production with trade was point c, would you consider this growth to be export-biased or import biased? If Albania were a large country with respect to the world trade of A and B, how would this growth affect Albania's terms of trade? Its real income?

Answer to Question 1

D

Answer to Question 2

If point c is the production point with trade, then Albania has a comparative advantage in good B. Therefore, from the shape of the new production possibility frontier (as compared to the original one), this is clearly an export-biased growth. This ceteris paribus would tend to worsen Albania's terms of trade. The terms of trade effect would, again ceteris paribus, worsen its real income. However, the growth itself acts in the opposite direction.

Although the Roman numeral for the number 4 has always been taught to have been "IV," according to historians, the ancient Romans probably used "IIII" most of the time. This is partially backed up by the fact that early grandfather clocks displayed IIII for the number 4 instead of IV. Early clockmakers apparently thought that the IIII balanced out the VIII (used for the number 8) on the clock face and that it just looked better.
