The Text Has Demonstrated That, Even If a Country's Production

question 27

Essay

The text has demonstrated that, even if a country's production does not change with the opening of the country to trade, a gain (the "consumption gain") can still occur even though there is no "production gain." Is the reverse situation possible - that is, can there be a "production gain" without there being a "consumption gain" for the country? Why or why not?
