REVIEW Explain how you would use the concept of opportunity cost in everyday life. Differentiate between increasing and constant opportunity cost PPCs Explain why the Law of Increasing Opportunity Cost occurs. Explain how you calculate PER UNIT opportunity cost. Explain difference between productive and allocative efficiency on the PPC Identify the 3 Shifters of the PPC Give 2 SPECIFIC scenarios that would shift a PPC outward (Use Pizza and Robots) List 10 types of Soda Copyright ACDC Leadership 2015

Specialization and Trade Why do people trade? 3 Copyright ACDC Leadership 2015

Why do people trade? Assume people didn’t trade. What things would you have to go without? Everything you don’t produce yourself! (Clothes, car, cell phone, bananas, heath care, etc) The Point: Everyone specializes in the production of goods and services and trades it to others What would life be like if cities couldn’t trade with cities or states couldn’t trade with states? Limiting trade would reduce people’s choices and make people worse off. The Point: More access to trade means more choices and a higher standard of living. 4 Copyright ACDC Leadership 2015

Absolute and Comparative Advantage 5 Copyright ACDC Leadership 2015

Per Unit Opportunity Cost 1 hat costs a half of a shirt Per Unit Opportunity Cost Review Per Unit Opportunity Cost = Opportunity Cost Units Gained Assume it costs you $50 to produce 5 t-shirts. What is your PER UNIT cost for each shirt? $10 per shirt Now, take money our of the equation. Instead of producing 5 shirts you could have made 10 hats. What is your PER UNIT OPPORTUNITY COST for each shirt in terms of hats given up? 1 shirt costs 2 hats What is your PER UNIT OPPORTUNITY COST for each hat in terms of shirts given up? 1 hat costs a half of a shirt 6 Copyright ACDC Leadership 2015

Per Unit Opportunity Cost Review Ronald McDonald can produce 20 pizzas or 200 burgers Papa John can produce 100 pizzas or 200 burgers What is Ronald’s opportunity cost for one pizza in terms of burgers given up? What is Ronald’s opportunity cost for one burger in terms of pizza given up? What is Papa John’s opportunity cost for one pizza in terms of burgers given up? What is Papa John’s opportunity cost for one burger in terms of pizza given up? 1 pizza cost 10 burgers 1 burger costs 1/10 pizza 1 pizza costs 2 burgers 1 burger costs 1/2 pizza Ronald has a COMPARATIVE ADVANTAGE in the production of burgers Papa John has a COMPARATIVE ADVANTAGE in the production of pizza 7 Copyright ACDC Leadership 2015

Absolute and Comparative Advantage Absolute Advantage The producer that can produce the most output OR requires the least amount of inputs (resources) Ex: Papa John has an absolute advantage in pizzas because he can produce 100 and Ronald can only make 20. Comparative Advantage The producer with the lowest opportunity cost. Ex: Ronald has a comparative advantage in burgers because he has a lowest PER UNIT opportunity cost. Countries should trade if they have a relatively lower opportunity cost They should specialize in the good that is “cheaper” for them to produce 8 Copyright ACDC Leadership 2015

Benefits of Specialize and Trade 9 Copyright ACDC Leadership 2015

Ex: Trade 1 ton of wheat for 1.5 tons of sugar Terms of Trade Both countries can benefit from trade if they each have relatively lower opportunity costs. Terms of Trade- The agreed upon conditions that would benefit both countries Ex: Trade 1 ton of wheat for 1.5 tons of sugar 15 Copyright ACDC Leadership 2015

Who has an absolute advantage in Radios? Pineapples Radios Kenya 30 10 India 40 40 Who has an absolute advantage in Radios? What is the cost of one radio for India? What is the per unit opportunity cost for 1 pineapple for Kenya? Who has a comparative advantage in pineapples? Who has a comparative advantage in radios? Who should import pineapples? Trading 1 radio for how many pineapples would benefit both countries? Copyright ACDC Leadership 2015

What terms of trade benefit both countries? Pineapples Radios Kenya 30 10 (1P costs 1/3R) (1R costs 3 P) India 40 (1P costs 1R) 40 (1R costs 1P) Kenya wants Radios If the terms of trade for 1 radio is greater than 3 pineapples then Kenya is worse off and should make radios on their own. India wants Pineapples If the terms of trade for 1 radio is less than 1 pineapple then India is worse off and should make pineapples on their own. What terms of trade benefit both countries? Copyright ACDC Leadership 2015

Trading 1 radio for 2 pineapples will benefit both Radios Kenya 30 10 (1P costs 1/3R) (1R costs 3 P) India 40 (1P costs 1R) 40 (1R costs 1P) Trading 1 radio for 2 pineapples will benefit both If Kenya produces radios by themselves, they give up 3 Pineapples for each radio. If they can trade 2 pineapples for each radio they are better off. If India produces pineapples by themselves, they give up 1 pineapple for one radio. If they can get 2 pineapples for one radio they are better off. The countries trade at a lower opportunity cost than if they made the products themselves! Copyright ACDC Leadership 2015
