Essay Questions

1. Many countries in Sub-Saharan Africa have very low labor productivities in many sectors, in

manufacturing and agriculture. They often despair of even trying to attempt to build their industries unless it is done in an autarkic context, behind protectionist walls because they do not believe they can compete with more productive industries abroad. Discuss this issue in the context of the

Ricardian model of comparative advantage.

Answer: The Ricardian model of comparative advantage argues that every country must have a comparative advantage in some product (assuming there are more products than countries).

However, the Ricardian model is not a growth model, and cannot be used to identify

growth nodes or linkages.

2. In 1975, wage levels in South Korea were roughly 5% of those in the United States. It is obvious

that if the United States had allowed Korean goods to be freely imported into the United States at

that time, this would have caused devastation to the standard of living in the United States, because no producer in this country could possibly compete with such low wages. Discuss this assertion in

the context of the Ricardian model of comparative advantage.

Answer: Regardless of relative wage levels, the United States would be able to provide its populace with a higher standard of living than would be possible without trade. Also, low wages

tend to be associated with low productivities.

3. The evidence cited in the chapter using the examples of the East Asia New Industrializing Countries

suggests that as international productivities converge, so do international wage levels. Why do you suppose this happened for the East Asian NICs? In light of your answer, what do you think is likely to happen to the relative wages (relative to those in the United States) of China in the coming decade?

Explain your reasoning.

Answer: Following the logic of the Ricardian model of comparative advantage, the East Asian countries played to their respective comparative advantages. This allowed the world

demand to provide excess demands for their relatively abundant labor, which in turn

tended to raise these wages. If China follows the same pattern, their wages levels should

also be expected over time to converge to those in their industrialized country markets.

4. When we examine the 2 Good 2 Country version of the Ricardian model of comparative advantage,

we note that comparative advantage is totally determined by physical productivity ratios. Changes in wage rates in either country cannot affect these physically determined comparative advantages, and hence cannot affect, which product will be exported by which country. However, when more than

2 goods are added to the model (still with 2 countries), changes in wage rates in one or the other

country can in fact determine which good or goods each of the countries will export. How can you

explain this anomaly?

Answer: This is not really an anomaly. As long as only two goods exist, then as long as trade takes place, each country must have a comparative advantage in one of them (or none).

However, if there are more goods than countries, then the physical productivity definition

of comparative advantage becomes ambiguous. Changes in relative wage rates will shift

the international competitiveness along the “chain of comparative advantage.”

5. An examination of the Ricardian model of comparative advantage yields the clear result that trade is

(potentially) beneficial for each of the two trading partners since it allows for an expanded

consumption choice for each. However, for the world as a whole the expansion of production of one

product must involve a decrease in the availability of the other, so that it is not clear that trade is

better for the world as a whole as compared to an initial situation of non-trade (but efficient

production in each country). Are there in fact gains from trade for the world as a whole? Explain.

Answer: If we were to combine the production possibility frontiers of the two countries to create a

single world production possibility frontier, then it is true that any change in production

points (from autarky to specialization with trade) would involve a tradeoff of one good for

another from the world’s perspective. In other words, the new solution cannot possibly

involve the production of more of both goods. However, since we know that each country

is better off at the new solution, it must be true that the original points were not on the

trade contract curve between the two countries, and it was in fact possible to make some

people better off without making others worse off, so that the new solution does indeed

represent a welfare improvement from the world’s perspective.

6. It is generally claimed that a movement from autarky to free trade consistent with Ricardian

comparative advantage increases the economic welfare of each of the trade partners. However, it

may be demonstrated that under certain circumstances, not everyone in each country is made better

off. Illustrate such a case.

Answers: (a) If inter-generational, or economic growth considerations are taken into account, then

a country may end up specializing in a good that has no or few growth linkages with

the rest of the economy (e.g. an “enclave” sector).

(b) If some of the residents of a country have tastes biased toward their exportable, then

they may suffer due to the trade-affected increase in the market price of the

exportable good.

7. It is generally claimed that state trading, or centrally controlled trading will tend to reach a lower

economic welfare than would be reached by allowing market forces to determine trade flow

directions and terms of trade. Illustrate a counter-example to this proposition.

Answer: In general, if we begin with any suboptimal distortion, the theory of the second best tells

us that an additional “distortion” may move a country in the correct direction of a welfare

improvement. For example, If a country has an overvalued exchange rate (that is, its

currency is overpriced in the foreign exchange markets), it is possible that it will find itself

in an autarkic equilibrium (that is, it might “overprice itself out of the international

market”). In such a case it is easy to demonstrate that if the government exports the goods

in which the country enjoys comparative advantage, and imports the other (bypassing

market prices and mechanisms), the country’s economic welfare will improve.

8. The Ricardian proposition that international trade will benefit any country (“gains

long as the world terms of trade do not equal its autarkic relative prices is a straightforward and

powerful concept. Nevertheless, it is impossible to demonstrate empirically. Why?

Answer: This is because there is no way of knowing exactly what are, or would have been, the

autarky MRTs or MRSs. This is because there is no single example in the world of

a country that is totally unengaged in international trade.

U.S. Croatia

Soy 300 20

Toys 100 20

(a) What is the marginal cost of a toy in each country?

Answer: 3 units of Soy in the U.S., and 1 Soy unit in Croatia.

(b) How might you demonstrate (quantitatively) that a country with absolute productivity advantage

in a product may find that its production is more costly than in the other (unproductive) country?

Answer: The U.S. have absolute productivity advantage in toys. Nevertheless, toys are three times more costly than they are in Croatia.

(c) Demonstrate the fact that trade produces imports (indirectly) cheaper, even in the relatively

unproductive country.

Answer: In Croatia, one unit of wheat will cost one toy. However, if the terms of trade fall between the two autarkic price ratios (a condition necessary for both countries to enjoy gains from

trade), say at 2 Soy units per toy, then Croatia will gain each Soy unit with less of

a sacrifice of toy production.

第一章 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:参见教材第一章第二节内容,将图1-6a中,以横坐标表示y商品的供给,以纵坐标表示x商品供给,得出相应生产可能性边界线,然后将图1-6b中,以横坐标表示y商品供给,以纵坐标表示y的相对价格,通过类似推导可得出国民供给曲线,国民需求曲线作类似推导可得。 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? 答:两种商品同时达到均衡。一种商品均衡时,由其相对价格,机会成本,需求可知另一种商品得相对价格,机会成本和需求。 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:略,参见书上 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?

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》(国际金融)习题答案要点

〈〈国际经济学》(国际金融)习题答案要点 第12章国民收入核算与国际收支 1、如问题所述,GNP仅仅包括最终产品和服务的价值是为了避免重复计算的问题。 在国民收入账户中,如果进口的中间品价值从GNP中减去,出口的中间品价值加 到GNP中,重复计算的问题将不会发生。例如:美国分别销售钢材给日本的丰田公司和美国的通用汽车公司。其中出售给通用公司的钢材,作为中间品其价值不被计算到美国的GNP中。出售给日本丰田公司的钢材,钢材价值通过丰田公司进入日本的GNP,而最终没有进入美国的国民收入账户。所以这部分由美国生产要素创造的中间品价值应该从日本的GNP中减去,并加入美国的GNP。 2、(1)等式12-2可以写成CA =(S P-I)? (T -G)。美国更高的进口壁垒对私人储蓄、投资和政府赤字有比较小或没有影响。(2)既然强制性的关税和配额对这些变量没有影响,所以贸易壁垒不能减少经常账户赤字。 不同情况对经常账户产生不同的影响。例如,关税保护能提高被保护行业的投资,从而使经常账户恶化。(当然,使幼稚产业有一个设备现代化机会的关税保护是合理的。)同时,当对投资中间品实行关税保护时,由于受保护行业成本的提高可能使该行业投资下降,从而改善经常项目。一般地,永久性和临时性的关税保护有不同的效果。这个问题的要点是:政策影响经常账户方式需要进行一般均衡、宏观分析。 3、 (1)、购买德国股票反映在美国金融项目的借方。相应地,当美国人通过他的瑞士银行账户用支票支付时,因为他对瑞士请求权减少,故记入美国金融项目的贷方。这是美国用一个外国资产交易另外一种外国资产的案例。 (2)、同样,购买德国股票反映在美国金融项目的借方。当德国销售商将美国支票存入德国银行并且银行将这笔资金贷给德国进口商(此时,记入美国经常项目的贷 方)或贷给个人或公司购买美国资产(此时,记入美国金融项目的贷方)。最后,银行采取的各项行为将导致记入美国国际收支表的贷方。 (3)、法国政府通过销售其持有在美国银行的美元存款干预外汇市场,代表美国金融项目的借方项目。购买美元的法国公民如果使用它们购买美国商品,这将记入美国国际收支账户经常项目的贷方;如果用来购买美国资产,这将记入美国国际收支账户金融项目的贷方。 (4)假定签发旅行支票的公司使用支票账户在法国进行支付。当此公司支付餐费给 法国餐馆时,记入美国经常项目的借方。签发旅行支票的公司必须销售资产(消耗 其在法国的支票账户)来支付,从而减少了公司在法国拥有的资产,这记入美国金融项目的贷方。 (5)、没有市场交易发生。 (6)离岸交易不影响美国国际收支账户。 4、购买answering machine记入New York收支账户的经常项目借方,记入New Jersey 收支账户经常项目的贷方。当New Jersey的公司将货款存入New York银行时,记入New York的金融项目的贷方和New Jersey金融项目的借方。如果交易用现金进 行支付,则记入New Jersey金融项目的借方和New York金融项目的贷方。New Jersey 获得美元现钞(从New York进口资产),而New York则减少了美元(出口美元资产)。最后的调整类似于金本位制下发生的情况。5、

第三章 要素禀赋理论 国际经济学 教案

第三章要素禀赋理论 上章介绍了技术条件差异对国际贸易的决定作用,这章将放宽第二个条件,即放松各国相对要素禀赋相同这一假设,从要素禀赋差异的角度探讨国际贸易的起因与影响。要素禀赋理论是由两位瑞典经济学赫克歇尔和俄林师生提出,后经萨缪尔森等人不断完善,该理论又称赫克歇尔-俄林模型或H-O模型。 第一节 H-O理论的基本内容 一、H-O模型的提出 1)李嘉图的比较利益说认为,比较利益产生自各国之间劳动生产率的差异。 国际贸易←价格差←成本差异←劳动生产率的相对差异 2)后人以机会成本差异代替了劳动成本差异,形成了比较利益学说的当代理论的解释。但仍未说明劳动生产率差异产生的原因。 3)如果两国相同要素的生产率相同,贸易是否会产生。 H-O模型从要素存量差异的角度对国际贸易进行分析。其出发点有两个: 1)不同国家的要素存量的比例是不同的; 2)不同商品的生产所使用的要素比例是不同的。 二、要素禀赋和要素密集度 1、要素禀赋:指一国所拥有的两种生产要素的相对比例。如果一国的要素禀赋(K/L)大于他国,则称该国为资本(相对)丰富或劳动(相对)稀缺的国家;反过来,他国则为劳动丰富或资本稀缺的国家。也可从价格的角度进行定义:如果一国劳动与资本的价格之比(w/r)大于另一国的劳动与价格之比,则称该国为资本丰富型国家;也即一国劳动的相对价格高高于另一国,则该国为资本丰富型国家。 图中,E A、E B分别表示A、B两国的要素总量组合ρA>ρB ,故A国为资本丰富的国家,B国则为劳动丰富的国家。 2、要素密集度:指生产某种产品所投入两种生产要素的比例。如果生产A商品的资本和劳动投入之比(K/L)大于生产B商品的资本和劳动投入之比,那么A商品就是资本密集型产品,而B商品是劳动密集型产品。要素密集度这也是一个相对的概念,与生产要素的绝对投入量无关。 定义:kx=Kx/Lx;ky=Ky/Ly,若kx>ky,则X是资本密集型产品,Y是劳动密集型产品在H-O理论中,两种商品的要素密集度是给定的,不随着要素价格的变化而变化;也就是说,即便要素价格变化导致两种商品生产的要素投入之比变化,也不会改变两种商品的要素密集度。

第一章国际收支 ●国际收支:是在一定时期内一国居民对其他国家居民所进行的全部经济交易的系统记录。 国际收支分文狭义和广义的概念:狭义上是指一国的外汇收支,即凡是在国际经济交易中必须通过外汇收支进行清算的交易,都属于国际收支的内容。广义上指不涉及外汇收支的各种经济交易,如清算支付协定项目上的记帐、易货贸易等也包括在内。 ●国际收支平衡表(Balance of Payments Statements)也叫国际收支账户,是一国将其一 定时期内的全部国际经济交易,根据交易的内容与范围,按照特定账户分类和复式记账原理表示的会计报表。 ●经常账户(Current Account)又称为往来账户,反映了一个经济体与其他经济体之间真 实资源的转移情况,并在整个国际收支账户中占主要地位。具体包括货物、服务、收益和经常转移等四个子账户。 ●货物(Goods)。包括一般商品、用于加工的货物、货物修理、各种运输工具在购买的 货物和非货币黄金。IMF建议,货物按边境的离岸价格(FOB)计价。 ●服务(Services)。包括运输、旅游、通讯、建筑、金融、保险、计算机和信息服务、专 有权的使用费和特许费以及其他商业服务。 ●收益(Income)。包括居民和非居民之间的两大类交易:一是职工报酬,主要指支付给 非居民工人(如季节性的短期工人)的工资报酬。二是投资收益,包括直接投资、证券投资和其他投资的收入和支出,以及储备资产的收入。 ●经常转移(Current Transfer)。是排除了以下资产所有权转移的单方面价值转移:一是 固定资产所有权的转移;二是同固定资产收买/放弃相联系或以其为条件的资产转移; 三是债权人不索取任何回报而取消的债务。经常转移包括各级政府的转移(如政府间经常性的国际合作、对收入和财政支付的经常性税收等)和其他转移(如工人汇款)。 ●资本和金融账户(Capital and Financial Account)主要反映资本所有权在一国与其他国 家之间的移动,即国际资本流动。具体包括资本账户和金融账户两大部分。 ●资本转移。即固定资产所有权的转移、同固定资产收买/放弃相联系或以其为条件的资 产转移和债权人不索取任何回报而取消的债务。 ●直接投资(Direct Investment)。主要特征是投资者对另一经济体的企业拥有永久利益。 这一永久利益意味着直接投资者和企业之间存在着长期的关系,并且投资者对企业经营管理施加着相当大的影响。直接投资可以采取在国外直接设立分支企业的形式,也可以采取购买国外企业一定比例以上股票(最低10%)的形式。 ●证券投资(Portfolio Investment)。主要对象是股本证券和债务证券。股本证券包括股票、 参股和其他类似文件(如美国的存股证);债务证券可以分为期限一年以上的中长期债券、货币市场工具(如国库券、银行承兑汇票、大额可转让存单等)和其他派生金融工具。 ●储备资产(Reserve Assets)。包括货币当局可随时动用并控制以达到一定目的的外部资 产,主要有货币黄金、特别提款权、在IMF的储备头寸、外汇资产和其他债权。 ●自主性交易(Autonomous Transaction),又叫事前交易(Ex-ante Transaction),是指那 些基于商业(利润)动机或其他考虑而独立发生的交易,如商品、劳务、技术交流,收益的转移,无偿的转让,各种形式的对外直接投资和证券投资等等。 ●国际收支均衡(Equilibrium of BP),即国内经济处于均衡状态下的自主性交易平衡, 或者说,国内经济处于充分就业、物价稳定和经济增长状态下的自主性交易平衡。 ●偶发性失衡(Accidental Imbalance) ●又称临时性失衡(Temporary Imbalance),即短期的、由非确定和偶然因素引起的国际 收支失衡。
