Answer to Question 1

All else equal, countries that specialize in capital goods will likely grow more than those that specialize in consumer goods, because specializing in capital goods will allow for more goods to be produced in the future. The opportunity cost of this decision is that the economy will experience a lower standard of living in the present than they would otherwise.
