Essay

-Refer to above figure. Two countries exist in this model, P and R. P is relatively labor (L) abundant, as is evident in the bottom right horizontal axis. If Country P were to be completely specialized in the labor-intensive product, C, it would be producing at point 4. In fact, it produces both C and P, at point 5. The (autarky) relative price of C (in terms of
F) of Country P is at point 3; and of Country R at point 1. If trade were to open up between these two countries, which would export C and which would export F? Is this consistent with the Heckscher-Ohlin model? Explain.
