Part Ⅰ. Fill in the blank with suitable content.

1.Seven themes recur throughout the study of international economics. These

are , , , the balance of payments, exchange rate determination, international policy coordination, international capital market. 2. Countries engage in international trade for two basic reasons : and .

3. A country has a comparative advantage in producing a good if of producing that good in terms of other goods is lower in that country than it is in other countries.

4. Labor is the only one factor of production. LC a 、LW a and *LC a 、*

LW a are the unit labor requirement in cheese and wine at Home and Foreign, respectively. If , Home has a comparative advantage in cheese. C p /W p is the relative price of cheese, when Home and Foreign specialize in producing cheese and wine , respectively.

5. Labor is the only one factor of production. LC a 、LW a and *LC a 、*

LW a are the unit labor requirement in cheese and wine at Home and Foreign, respectively. L and L*are Home‘s and Foreign‘s labor force. If

LC a /LW a

a /*LW a , the world relative supply of cheese equals . Home‘s gains from indirectly producing wine can be shown as 6.

Part Ⅵ. Choose FOUR of the following questions and answer them.

Chapter 3

1. Suppose: Labor is the only one factor of production. L and L*are Home‘s and Foreign‘s labor

force.LC a 、LW a and *LC a 、*

LW a are the unit labor requirement in cheese 、wine at Home and Foreign, respectively. C p /W p is the retative price of cheese.Home and Foreign have a comparative advantage in cheese and wine,respectively.Please denote each of the following contents with one equation. (1)Home‘s comparative advantag e. (2)Foreign‘s specialization (3)World relative supply (4)Home‘s gains from trade

(5)Compare *LC a /LC a 、*

LW a /LW a and w/w* Answer:

⑴ aLC/aLW 1/aLW

⑸ aLC*/aLC>w/w*>a*LW/aLW [因为a*LC w*>aLC w ,所以a*LC/aLC>w/w*;因为a*LW w*a*LW/aLW ]

2.Japanese labor productivity is roughly the same as that of the United States in the manufacturing sector (higher in some industries, lower in others), while the United States is still considerably more productive in the service sector. But most services are nontraded. Some analysts have argued that this poses a problem for the United States, because its comparative advantage lies in things it cannot sell on world markets. What is wrong with this argument? Answer:

To determine comparative advantage need for all

four unit labor requirements (for both the

manufacture and the service sectors)

·*LC LC a a < is an absolute advantage in service ,this is neither a necessary nor a sufficient

condition for determining comparative advantage . ·The competitive advantage depends on both relative productivity and relative wages.

【该结论的问题在于没有考虑所有用来确定生产中比较优势的信息:本例中与4个部门对劳动有所需求(美国、日本各自的服务部门和工业部门),仅仅比较服务部门的单位产品劳动投入是不够的。如果aLS

3. In Ricardian model, trade benefit a country can be shown in two ways.

(1) Explain the two ways respectively; (2) Can these ways suit for other trade model? Answer: ⑴ ①To think of trade as an indirect method of production : Suppose Home has a comparative advantage in producing cheese, while Foreign in wine, that is *

*///LW

LC W C LW LC a a P P a a <<, so LW W C LC a P P a /1)/)(/1(.>. That is by producing

cheese and then trade for wine; Home can get more units of wine than just producing wine itself in one unit of time. Similarly,

产,―非直接‖生产需要投入的劳动比率比直接生产要少。】

②Trade expands consumption possibilities

Figure2-4

【②以消费可能线表示:贸易扩大了一个国家的消费可能性。】

⑵ Yes, because whatever the trade model is, resources are admitted to be used in producing goods which is can do with relatively more sufficiency, By producing what they are relative more efficient in and trade for other goods they can get more than just producing the other goods themselves.

4.The proposition that trade is beneficial is unqualified. That is, there is no requirement that a country be ―competitive‖ or that the trade be ―fair‖. Answer:

(1). Productivity and competitiveness ·The gains from trade depend on comparative advantage rather than absolute advantage. ·The competitive advantage of an industry depend on relative labor productivity and relative wage. ·Absolute advantage: neither a necessary nor a sufficient condition for comparative advantage (or for the gains from trade). (2). The pauper labor argument ·Whether the lower cost of foreign export goods is due to high productivity or low wages does not matter. All that matter to home is that it is more efficient to ―produce‖ those goods indirectly than to produce directly. (3). Exploitation ·if it refuse to trade, real wages would be even lower

5.―Free trade is beneficial only if your country is strong enough to stand up to foreign competition‖. Judge and explain the remark. Answer:

The gains from trade depend on comparative

advantage rather than absolute advantage.

·The competitive advantage of an industry depend

on relative labor productivity and relative wage.

·Absolute advantage: neither a necessary nor a

sufficient condition for comparative advantage

(or for the gains from trade).

①贸易的获益取决于比较优势而非绝对优势。一个部门

的比较优势不仅取决于该部门相对于其他国家同一部门的劳动生产率,也取决于本国相对于外国的工资率。

一个国家工资率又取决于其他产业部门的相对劳动生产率。因此,即使是劳动生产率比较低的国家也能拥有比较优势,从贸易中获益。 ②贫民劳动论:外国的低工资率和本国是否从贸易中获利的问题并没有多大关系,外国生产产品的成本比较低是因为劳动生产率高还是因为工资率低是一件无关紧要的事,关键是有哪个本国自己的劳动量,本国生产的产品换取外国产品比本国直接生产的更便宜。 ③剥削论:拒绝出口和贸易的机会恰恰会将他们陷入更加贫困的境地。

6. Judge and explain the following arguments:

(1)Foreign competition is unfair and hurts other countries when it is based on low wages.

(2)It is precisely because the relative wage is between the relative productivities that each country ends up with a cost advantage in one good. Answer:

Relative wage reflects relative productivity,

international trade can‘t change it.

·Trading with a less productive and low-wage

country will rise ,no lower its standard of living.

【贫民劳动论:外国的低工资率和本国是否从贸易中获利的问题并没有多大关系,外国生产产品的成本比较低是因为劳动生产率高还是因为工资率低是一件无关紧要的事,关键是有哪个本国自己的劳动量,本国生产的产品换取外国产品比本国直接生产的更便宜。】 Right If a*LC/aLC>w/w*>a*LW/aLW 因为a*LC/aLC>w/w*,推出a*LC w*>aLC w, that is home ends up with a cost advantage in cheese. 因为a*LW/aLW

7. Suppose that there are many countries capable of producing two goods, and that each country has only one factor of production, labor. What could we say about the pattern of production and trade in this case? (Hint: Try constructing the world relative supply curve.) Answer:

Label the countries so that N 2(aLC/aLW)

...(aLC/aLW)(aLC/aLW)<<<

Any country to the left of RD produces cheese and

trades it for wine. Any country to right of RD produces wine and trades it for cheese.

10. (1)What is Rybczynski effect ? Draw a figure using production possibility frontier to illustrate it. (2) How can we relate Rybczynski effect to H-O theorem ? Answer: ⑴罗布斯金效果:在相对商品价格不变,如果一种生产要素的供应增加,该要素密集型的产品产出会上升,而其他商品生产将下降。

·The economy could produce more of both cloth and food than before.

·A biased expansion of production possibilities.

·An economy will tend to be relatively effective at producing goods that are intensive in that factors with

which the country is relative well-endowed.

⑵H-O model is a proportion of Rybzynski effect.【H-O模型是罗布金斯基定理的推论,H-O理论认为各国倾向于出口国内丰富资源密集型的产品罗布金斯基认为一种要素供给的增加,密集使用这种要素的产品的产出将更大幅度增加,因此出口就会增加。】

11.What is Stolper-Samuelson effect ? Draw a figure relating goods price to factor price and factor input ratio and illustrate Stolper-Samuelson effect.

Answer:

Stolper-Samuelson effect :如果产品的相对价格上升,该产品集中使用的要素的实际收入上升,而其他要素实际收入下降P C/P F↑ w/r↑ T C/L C↑,T F/L F↑MPL C↑, MPL F↑ W/P C↑, W/P F

12. (1) Stolper-Samuelson effect.

(2) Immiserizing growth Answer:

(1) Stolper-Samuelson effect: If the relative price of a good rises the real income of the factor which intensively used that good will rise while the real income of the other factor will fall.

(2) Immiserizing growth: To export-biased growth, if the decline of the welfare caused by the deterioration of the terms of trade swap over the rise of the welfare caused by growth, the growth is immiserizing growth. 对于export-biased生长,如果贸易条件恶化造成福利的下降而贸易增长造成福利的上升,则称这种增长是贫困化增长。

Conditions:

(1) Economic growth is strongly export-biased

(2) The growing country is large enough to affect the world price

(3) RS and RD must be very steep.

13.―The world‘s poorest countries can‘t find anything to export. There is no resource is abundant—certainly not capital or land, and in small poor nations not even labor is abundant.‖Answer:

what matters are not the absolute abundance of factors, but their relatives abundance. Poor countries have an abundance of labor relative to capital when compared to more developed countries.

【?充裕‘要素的充裕是相对的,指的并不是一国所拥有的该生产要素的绝对数量的充裕,而是指改生产要素相对于其他生产要素的相对充裕。可见,其作用的不是要素的绝对充裕程度,而是它们的相对充裕程度。根据H-O(赫克歇尔-俄林定理)理论,各国倾向于生产并出口国内充裕要素密集型的产品,一国充裕要素的所有者能够从国际贸易中获利。与发达国家相比,在发展中国家,相对于资本而言劳动比较充裕。】

14. According to an influential recent paper, the H-O model can predict not only the direction but the volume of trade. Factor trade in general turn out to be the same as the H-O model predicts. Answer:

It is wrong.

·Factor trade in general turns out to be much smaller than the H-O model predicts.

·A large part of the reason for this disparity comes from a false prediction of large-scale trade in

labor between rich and poor countries.

·This puzzle can be resolved only by dropping the H-O assumptions that technologies are the same across countries

15.In the discussion of empirical results on the Heckscher-Ohlin model, we noted that recent work suggests that the efficiency of factors of production seems to differ internationally. Explain how this would affect the concept of factor price equalization.

Answer:

the Heckscher-Ohlin theory would be applied to ―effective factors‖ which adjust for t he differences in technology or worker skills or land quality (for example).

The adjusted model has been found to be more successful than unadjusted model at explaining the pattern of trade between countries.

Factor-price equalization concepts would apply to the effective factors. 【如果各国生产要素效率不同,那么H-O理论可以适用于有效要素就是在工人技能或土地差异中考虑技术差异。结果表明调整后的模型比没有调整的模型能够更好的解释国家见的贸易模型。要素趋同概念也可以适用于有效要素。】

16. (1)What are the main conclusions of the H-O model? Are they confirmed by empirical evidences? Why?

(2)Can the H-O model predict the volume of trade? why? Does factor trade in general turn out to be the same as the H-O model predicts? why?

Answer:

(1) H-O proposition: Countries tend to export goods whose production is intensive in factors with which they are abundantly endowed.

It is not supported by the empirical evidenc e. ·U.S. exports were more skilled labor-intensive and technology-intensive than its imports. U.S. exports were less capital-intensive than U.S. imports. (Leontief paradox).

·Two-thirds of the factors were trading in the predicted direction less than 70 percents of the time. This result confirms the Leontief paradox on a broader level: Trade often doesn‘t run in the direction that the H-O theory predicts. ·This puzzle can be resolved only by dropping the H-O assumptions that technologies are the same across countries.

【H-O理论的结论:各国倾向于出口本国丰富资源密集型产品。该结论不能被实证检验所证实。根据美国和世界的数据,美国是一个资本相对丰富的国家,应该出口资本密集型产品,但事实并非如此,这就是所谓的里昂悌夫悖论。如果要素比例理论是正确的,一个国家总是要出口要素比利大于收入比例的生产要素,进口要素比例小于收入比例的生产要素,事实上,有2/3生产要素在不到70%的情况下是一要素比例理论所论断的方式进行贸易的。其中一个重要原因是H-O理论假定各国技术是一样的,但事实并不是这样的。】

(2)①Yes, If the factor-proportion theory was right,

a country would always export factors for which the factor share exceeded the income share, import factors for which it was less.

②No,Factor trade in general turn out to be much smaller than the H-O model prescribe.(要素贸易远小于H-O模型的规定

19.Countries A and B have two factors of production, capital and labor, with which they produce two goods, X and Y. Technology is the same in the two countries. X is capital intensive; A is capital abundant. Analyze the effects on the terms of trade and the welfare of the two countries of the following:

a. An increase in A‘s capital stock.

b. An increase in A‘s labor supply. Answer : ·Country A trade X for Y while Country B trade Y for X .

·An increase in the capital stock of either country

favors the production of X . While an increase

in the labor stock of either country favors the

22.(1)In monopolistic competition trade model, two key assumptions are made to derive the demand curve facing a typical monopolistically competitive firm: )](/1[P P b n S Q -?-?=, what is the two assumptions ?

(2)If the cost of the firm take the form C=F+ c×Q , We can derive AC=n×F/S+c and P=c+1/(b+n). How can we get the equilibrium number of firms from figure and algebra ? (3)What is the dilemma (or constraint) of a single country ?

(4)International trade increases market size. What are the effects of the increased market size? Draw a figure to illustrate them. (5)How will the pattern of trade be?

Answer:

(1) Two assumptions:

①Each firms is assumed to be able to differentiate its product from that of its rivals. (It behaves as if it were a monopolist)

②Each firms is assumed to take the prices charged by its rivals as given. (It behaves as if it were a competitor). (2)Market equilibrium

·We assume that all firms in this industry are symmetric, that is typical firms. All we want to know is n and P .

·The more firms there are, the less each firm sells and therefore the higher is its average cost. (curve cc: AC=F/Q + c=n×F/S + c , n ↑, AC ↑) The more firms there are, the more intensive they compete, and hence the lower is the

industry price.

(curve pp: P=c+1/(b×n ) (P 129-130) , n ↑, P ↓) ·According to the long-run-equilibrium monopolistic competition: P e =AC e (zero-profit), n =bF S /.

23. ―In the monopolistic competition model, trade may be divided into two kinds. Two -way trade in differentiated products within an industry is called intraindustry trade; trade that exchanges the products of one industry for the products of another is called interindustry trade‖.

Model: Home 、Foreign; K 、L ; Manufacture and

Food. Home is capital abundant. Manufacture is

capital-intensive and monopolistic competition

The length of the arrows indicates the value of trade in each direction. Because manufactures is monopolistically competitive industry, Home and Foreign will produce differentiated goods, it will import as well as export manufactures, giving rise to intraindustry trade.

24. ―External economies can cause countries to get ?locked in‘ to undesirable pattern of

specialization and can even lead to losses from international trade‖. Explain the argument with example.

Answer:

⑴ external economies an specialization

Figure 6-9

The average cost curve for Thailand, AC THM , lies below the average cost curve for Switzerland, AC SWISS . Thus Thailand could potentially supply the world market more cheaply than Switzerland. If the Swiss industry gets established first, however, it may be able to sell watches at the price P, which is below the cost Co that an individual

Thai firm would face if it began production on its own. So a pattern of specialization established by historical accident may persist even when new producers could potentially have lower costs. ⑵ External economies and losses form trade. Figure 6-9

When there are external economies, trade can

国际经济学练习题 一、判断题 1、当开放贸易时,所有消费者的境况都会得到改善。 2、根据简单贸易模型,在贸易发生之前,如果各国的某种商品价格相同,这些国家之间就不会有交换该种商品的动机。 3、如果一国中某生产者通过贸易能使自己的境况得到改善,那么,该国中所有的生产者都会通过贸易来改善自己的境况。 4、在两国间均衡贸易价格条件下,一国对某种商品的过度供给必然与另一国对该商品的过度需求相等。 5、不存在free lunch,但却存在free trade。 6、一国即便在某种商品的生产上具有绝对劣势,它也可以在该商品的生产上具有相对优势。 7、根据H—O理论,一国如果比他国拥有更多英亩的土地,该国便是“土地丰富”的国家。 8、在成本递增的条件下,各国并不一定要完全专业化于一种商品的生产。 9、H—O理论假设各国拥有相同的商品偏好。 10、我们或许可以通过更为细分化的生产要素定义而解决Leontief Paradox。 11、Stolper-Samuelson定理认为,贸易将使丰富要素的所有者得到更低的实际收入,同时使稀缺要素的所有者得到更高的实际收入。 12、如果各国的生产技术相同,贸易便不会使生产要素价格均等化。 13、一国的非技术性工人会比技术性工人更加反对贸易自由化。 14、大国可投资发展进口替代产业而不是出口产业,进而改善本国的贸易条件。 15、按照定义,小国的经济增长将不会使贸易条件发生变化。 16、青春期是一个贫困化增长的好例子。 17、一国生产要素的增长总会使该国更加自给自足,进而减少对国际贸易的依赖。 18、一个与外界隔绝的国家一定会降低其公民的生活水平。 19、产业内贸易在充分竞争性产业中更为盛行。 20、根据H—0理论,各国应进行大量的产业内贸易。 21、规模经济是指资源的平衡增长导致平均成本上升。 22、产业内贸易发生的原因包括产品差异化、规模经济以及收入分配效应。 23、如果瑞士旅行鞋的进口增加,英国皮鞋制造商就会受到损失。 24、自由贸易总是一种比征收关税更好的政策。 25、从量关税的优越性之一是其保护价值量与进口商品的价格上涨保持同步。 26、关税对一个国家来说可能是最优的,但对全球来说不会是最优的。 27、关税给消费者带来的损失要大于它给生产者带来的收益。 28、与关税相比,配额给政府官员以更大的管理灵活性。 29、只要进口许可证是被拍卖的,配额的福利效应就与关税相同。 30、如果一国政府的税收收入很少,它就会倾向于采用关税而不是配额。 31、对于进口国来说,自愿出口限制比进口配额效果更差。 32、自愿出口限制实际上很少是自愿的。 33、对症规则(specificity rule)认为,关税通常不是纠正一国经济中扭曲的最佳方法。 34、贸易保护的国防理论和国家荣誉理论基本上是次优的。 35、如果“learning by doing”意味者今天更多的生产会使未来的成本降低,那么最好的政策就是实行保护性关税。

国际经济学习题及参考答案

国际经济学作业 一、名词解释 幼稚产业:所谓幼稚产业是指某一产业处于发展初期,基础和竞争力薄弱但经过适度保护能够发展成为具有潜在比较优势的新兴产业。 倾销:是指一国(地区)的生产商或出口商以低于其国内市场价格或低于成本价格将其商品抛售到另一国(地区)市场的行为。 提供曲线:也称相互需求曲线,是由马歇尔和艾奇沃斯提出的,它表明一个国家为了进口一定量的商品,必须向其他国家出口一定量的商品,因此提供曲线即对应某一进口量愿意提供的出口量的轨迹。两个国家的提供曲线的交汇点所决定的价格,就是国际商品交换价格(交换比率)。 国际收支:国际收支分为狭义的国际收支和广义的国际收支。狭义的国际收支指一个国家或地区与世界其他国家或地区之间由于贸易、非贸易和资本往来而引起的国际间资金收支流动的行为。包括两种具体形式:直接的货币收支和以货币表示的资产的转移。反映了以货币为媒介的国际间的债权、债务关系。广义的国际收支为系统记载的、在特定时期内(通常为一年)一个国家或经济体的居民与世界其他地方居民的全部各项经济交易,不仅包括外汇收支的国际借贷关系,还包括一定时期全部经济交易与往来。 二、简答题 试画出出口贫困化增长的图形并作出分析 答:出口贫困化增长,是指某国的传统出口产品的出口规模极大地增长,但结果不仅使该国的贸易条件严重恶化,而且该国的国民福利水平也出现下降,这种现象一般出现在发展中国家。

贸易条件变化前,该国生产均衡点为A,消费点为C;由于该国传统出口产品X 的出口规模极大增长,使得该国贸易条件恶化,此时,生产点变为A’,消费点变为C’。由图中的无差异曲线可以看出,该国贸易条件的变化使得它的福利水平低于增长前。这种情形就成为“出口贫困化增长”。 产生出口贫困化增长的原因主要有:(1)该国在该种出口产品的出口量中占到相当大的比重,这样,当其出口大幅度增加时,会导致世界市场上出现供大于求的情况,导致价格大幅下跌。(2)该种产品的需求国的需求弹性很低,当产品价格降低时,需求是并不会相应大幅增长。(3)该国经济结构十分单一,依赖该种产品的出口来促进经济的发展,因此在贸易条件恶化的时候也不能压缩出口,而是进一步扩大出口量从而保持一定的出口收入。 试说明国际贸易中要素密集度逆转的情况 答:这是解释列昂惕夫反论的观点之一,它认为,某种商品在资本丰富的国家属于资本密集型产品,而在劳动力相对丰富的国家则属于劳动密集型产品,如小麦在非洲是劳动密集生产过程的产品,而在美国则是资本密集型的产品,也就是大机器和高效化肥生产的产品。所以,同一种产品是劳动密集型产品还是资本密集型产品并没有绝对的界限。在国外属于劳动密集型的产品,也有可能在国内属于资本密集型的产品。 即如果两种要素在行业间的替代弹性差异很大,以至于两种等产量曲线相交两次,那么,可能产生生产要素密集度逆转的现象。即一种产品在A国是劳动密集型产品在B国是资本密集型产品。可能就无法根据H-O的模式预测贸易模式了。

社科院题库-国际经济学

1.林德重叠需求论的假设条件和主要观点。 重叠需求理论是由瑞典经济学家林德提出,其理论核心是:两国之间贸易关系的密切程度是由两国的需求结构与收入水平决定的。 重叠需求理论有两个假设条件: 1、消费者行为假设:假设在一国之内,需求受消费者的收入水平决定。不同收入阶层的消费者偏好不同,收入越高的消费者就越偏好奢侈品,收入越低的消费者就越偏好必需品,但如果消费者收入水平相同,则其偏好也相同。2、两国需求重叠的假定:厂商根据消费者的收入水平与需求结构来决定其生产方向与内容,而生产的必要条件是对其产品有效需求的存在;如果两国的平均收入水平相近,则两国的需求结构也必定相似。反之,如果两国的收入水平相差很大,则他们的需求结构也必存在显著的差异。 重叠需求理论的基本观点是,重叠需求是国际贸易产生的一个独立条件。两国之间的需求结构若是越接近,则两国之间进行贸易的基础就越雄厚。当两国的人均收入水平越接近时,则重叠需求的范围也就越大,两国重复需要的商品都有可能成为贸易品。如果各国的国民收入不断提高,则由于收入水平的提高,新的重复需要的商品便不断地出现,贸易也相应地不断扩大,贸易中的新品种就会不断地出现。所以,收入水平相似的国家,互相间的贸易关系就可能越密切;反之,如果收入水平相差悬殊,则两国之间重复需要的商品就可能很少,贸易的密切程度也就很小。 2.国际贸易比较优势理论 比较优势可以表述为:在两国之间,劳动生产率的差距并不是在任何产品上都是相等的。每个国家都应集中生产并出口具有比较优势的产品,进口具有比较劣势的产品(即“两优相权取其重,两劣相衡取其轻”),双方均可节省劳动力,获得专业化分工提高劳动生产率的好处。假设条(1)假定贸易中只有两个国家和两种商品(X与Y商品),这一个假设的目的是为了用一个二维的平面图来说明这一理论。(2)两国在生产中使用不同的技术。技术的不同导致劳动生产率的不同进而导致成本的不同。(3)模型只假定在物物交换条件下进行,没有考虑复杂的商品流通,而且假定1个单位的X产品和一个单位的Y产品等价(不过他们的生产成本不等)。(4)在两个国家中,商品与要素市场都是完全竞争的。(5)在一国内要素可以自由流动,但是在国际间不流动。(6)分工前后生产成本不变。(7)不考虑交易费用和运输费用,没有关税或影响国际贸易自由进行的其他壁垒。但是,在贸易存在的条件下,当两国的相对商品价格完全相等时,两国的生产分工才会停止比较优势理论。如果存在运输成本和关税,当两国的相对价格差小于每单位贸易商品的关税和运输成本时,两国的生产分工才会停止。(8)价值规律在市场上得到完全贯彻,自由竞争,自由贸易。(9)假定国际经济处于静态之中,不发生其他影响分工和经济变化。(10)两国资源都得到了充分利用,均不存在未被利用的资源和要素。(11)两国的贸易是平衡的,即总的进口额等于总的出口额。

计算题及答案 1. 在古典贸易模型中,假设A国有120名劳动力,B国有50名劳动力,如果生产棉花的话,A国的人均产量是2吨,B国也是2吨;要是生产大米的话,A国的人均产量是10吨,B国则是16吨。画出两国的生产可能性曲线并分析两国中哪一国拥有生产大米的绝对优势?哪一国拥有生产大米的比较优势? 思路:B国由于每人能生产16吨大米,而A国每人仅生产10吨大米,所以B 国具有生产大米的绝对优势。 从两国生产可能性曲线看出A国生产大米的机会成本为0.2,而B国为0.125,所以B 国生产大米的机会成本或相对成本低于A国,B国生产大米具有比较优势。 2.下表列出了加拿大和中国生产1单位计算机和1单位小麦所需的劳动时间。假定生产计算机和小麦都只用劳动,加拿大的总劳动为600小时,中国总劳动为800小时。 (1)计算不发生贸易时各国生产计算机和小麦的产量。 (2)哪个国家具有生产计算机的比较优势?哪个国家具有生产小麦的比较优势? (3)如果给定世界价格是1单位计算机交换22单位的小麦,加拿大参与贸易可以从每单位的进口中节省多少劳动时间?中国可以从每单位进口中节省多少劳动时间?如果给定世界价格是1单位计算机交换24单位的小麦,加拿大和中国分别可以从进口每单位的货物中节省多少劳动时间? (4)在自由贸易的情况下,各国应生产什么产品,数量是多少?整个世界的福利水平是提高还是降低了?试用图分析。(以效用水平来衡量福利水平)思路: (1)中国生产计算机的机会成本为100/4=25,加拿大为60/3=20 (2)因为加拿大生产计算机的机会成本比中国低,所以加拿大具有生产者计算机的比较优势,中国就具有生产小麦的比较优势。 (3)如果各国按照比较优势生产和出口,加拿大进口小麦出口计算机,中国进口计算机出口小麦。 加拿大进口一单位小麦需要出口1/22单位计算机,折合成劳动时间来算,生产 一单位小麦本国要用3小时,但生产1/22单位计算机本国要用60/22小时劳 动,所以加拿大进口一单位小麦相当于用60/22小时的劳动换回本国3小时生 产的产品,节省了3-60/22=3/11小时的劳动时间。中国进口一单位计算机需 要出口22单位小麦,相当于用22*4=88小时的劳动换回本国需用100小时生产 的产品,节省了100-88=12小时的劳动时间。 如果世界价格是1单位计算机交换24单位的小麦,则相当于用60/24小时的劳动 换回本国3小时生产的产品,节省了3-60/24=1/2小时的劳动时间。中国进口 一单位计算机需要出口24单位小麦,相当于用24*4=96小时的劳动换回本国 需用100小时生产的产品,节省了100-96=4小时的劳动时间。

国际经济学复习题

比较利益:由英国经济学家托伦斯提出、嘉图发展的国际贸易理论。认为:即使一个国家生产每种产品都具有最高生产率,处于绝对优势,而另一个国家生产每种产品都处于绝对劣势,只要它们的劳动生产率在不同产品上存在区别,遵循“两利相权取其重,两弊相衡取其轻”的原则,便能从国际分工和贸易中获得利益。 出口的贫困增长:是指一国生产要素增加使产品出口增加时,该国的出口收入不但没有增加,反而减少了。造成这种局面的直接原因就是国际比价贸易条件的恶化。出口的贫困化增长主要发生在发展中国家,根源在于出口量随着生产能力提高而增加,引起国际市场价格下跌,进而造成贸易条件恶化。 要素禀赋:是指一国所拥有的可利用的经济资源的总量。它既包括自然存在的资源(如土地和矿产),也包括“获得性”资源(如技术和资本)。这是一个绝对量的概念。 要素禀赋理论:即赫克歇尔—俄林定理,简称H-O模型。在国际贸易中,一国的比较优势是由其要素丰裕度决定的。一国应生产和出口较密集地使用其较丰裕的生产要素的产品,进口较密集地使用其较稀缺的生产要素的产品。 要素价格均等化定理:即使生产要素不具备国际流动的条件,只要商品自由贸易得到充分的发展,那么各国同种生产要素的相对价格会趋于相等。同时,绝对价格也会趋于相等。要素密集度逆转:是指生产的某种商品,在劳动力相对丰富的国家中属于劳动密集型产品,但在资本相对丰富的国家中则属于资本密集型产品。 产业贸易理论:一国即出口又进口某种产业产品的贸易现象。具体主要指的是同一产业部门部的差异化产品的交换和中间产品的交流。按国际贸易标准分类至少前三位数相同的产品既出现在一国的进口项目中、又出现在该国的出口项目中。规模收益:当所有投入要素的使用量都按同样的比例增加时,这种增加会对总产量的影响。 规模收益是指涉及到厂商生产规模变化与产量变化之间的关系,如果生产规模的变化是由所有生产要素以相同比例扩大或减少而引起的,那么对应的产量变动就有三种情况:(1)如果产量增加的比率大于生产要素增加的比率,则生产处于规模收益递增阶段;(2)如果产量增加的比率等于生产要素增加的比率,则生产处于规模收益不变阶段;(3)如果产量增加的比率小于生产要素增加的比率,则生产处于规模收益递减阶段。 出口补贴:出口补贴又称出口津贴,是一国政府为了降低出口商品的价格,增加其在国际市场的竞争力,在出口某商品时给予出口商的现金补贴或财政上的优惠待遇。 进口配额:一国政府对一定时期进口的某些商品的数量或金额加以直接控制。在规定的期限,配额以的货物可以进口,超过配额不准进口,或征收较高关税后才能进口。简单而言,配额是对进口商品设置一定的限额,其目的与征收关税一样,为了限制进口,保护国工业。但与关税不同的是,进口配额是直接的数量控制而不是通过提高进口商品价格间接地减少进 口。 生产者剩余:生产者剩余是指生产者愿意接受的价格和实际接受的价格之间的差额。 消费者剩余:消费者在购买一定数量的某种商品时愿意支付的总数量和实际支付的总数量之间的差额 幼稚产业:某种产业由于技术经验不足、劳动生产率低下、产品成本高于世界市场价格,因而无法与国外产业竞争,但在关税、补贴等保护措施下继续生产一段时间,经过一段时间的生产能够在自由贸易条件下获利,达到其他国家水平而自

十三、试述H—O模型的主要内容并予以评价。 1、基本内容: 资本丰富的国家在资本密集型产品上相对供给能力较强,劳动丰富的国家则在劳动密集型产品上相对供给能力较强.根据比较优势原则,一国出口密集使用其丰富要素的产品,进口密集使用其稀缺要素的产品. 要素的自然禀赋—要素供给—要素的相对富饶程度-要素相对价格-生产成本差异—商品价格差异—贸易的发生 2、评价: 贡献:a、从一国经济资源优势解释国际贸易发生的原因;b、从实际优势出发决定贸易模式;c、从贸易对经济的影响分析贸易的作用。 局限性:a、禀赋并非贸易发生的充分条件;b、对需求因素未予以充分考虑,影响了理论对实际情况的分析;c、过分强调静态结果,排除技术进步及实际存在的情况,影响了理论的适用性。 十四、结合货币市场和外汇市场,以美元为本币,请画图美联储增加货币供给后,美元对欧元的汇率将如何变动。 外汇指的是以外国货币表示的,为各国普遍接受的,可用于国际间债权债务结算的各种支付手段。货币政策是指政府或中央银行为影响经济活动所采取的措施,尤指控制货币供给以及调控利率的各项措施。 一国货币供给的增加会使该国货币在外汇市场上贬值。美国的货币市场决定美元的利率,美元利率则影响维持利率平价的汇率.所以当美联储增加货币供给后,会导致美元相对欧元的贬值。但美元供给的变 动对长期利率和实际产出没有影 三、什么是恶性通货膨胀,可能导致恶性通货膨胀的原因以及应对措施。 恶性通货膨胀又称“超速通货膨胀”,是三位数以上的通货膨胀。指流通货币量的增长速度大大超过货币流通速度的增长,货币购买力急剧下降,物价水平加速上升,整体物价水平以极高速度快速上涨的现象,使民众对货币价值失去信心。由于货币的流通量增加快速,使货币变得没有价值时,人们会急于要以货币换取实物,人心惶惶的结果只会更加速通货膨胀的恶化,整体经济濒临崩溃边缘. 恶性通货膨胀是一种不能控制的通货膨胀,在物价很快地上涨的情况下,就使货币失去价值.在社会经济发展和运行中,如果某一国家或地区出现了恶性的通货膨胀、剧烈的汇率波动或严重的地区政治冲突,其发行的信用货币(纸币)将存在很大的风险。导致恶性通货膨胀的经济原因一般是纸币发行过多。 措施:控制货币供应量,调节控制社会总需求,增加商品有效供给. 四、为什么现实生活中会出现严重违背购买力平价的情况? 1。贸易壁垒和非贸易品 运输费用和贸易管制会使得商品在不同国家之间的流通成本变高,从而削弱作为购买力评价理论基础的一价定律的作用机制.由于非贸易品的存在,即使是相对购买力,也会出现系统性的偏差。 2.非自由竞争 当贸易壁垒和不完全竞争市场结构同时存在时,各国价格水平之间的联系会进一步弱化。 3。不同国家消费模式和价格水平计量方面的区别 生活在不同国家的人们的消费方式不同,而且由于相对购买力平价预测的是价格变动而非价格水平,所以不管各国用什么样的商品篮子来定义价格水平,它都是一种切合实际的概念,商品篮子中不同商品的相对价格发生变动可能会使得相对购买力平价无法经手不同官方价格指数的检验。 五、什么是比较优势,如何评价比较优势。 比较优势是指如果一个国家在本国生产一种产品的机会成本(用其他产品来衡量)低于在其他国家生产该产品的机会成本的话,则这个国家在生产该种产品上就拥有比较优势。
