A century ago, most British imports came from relatively distant locations: North
America, Latin America and Asia. Today most British imports come from other
European countries. How does this fit in with the changing types of goods that make
up world trade? ( LO 1) (20%)
France and the United Kingdom have very similar trading patterns. Both trades
considerably more with the United States than with the European Union (EU), even
though they are EU members and are closer to the EU common market than the
American market. Explain this anomaly using the gravity model!(LO 1) (20%)

Suppose Upin and Ipin produce two products – Fried Chicken and Shirts. Upin
produces 20 units of fried chicken or 8 shirts per day and Ipin produces 12 units of
fried chicken or 4 shirts. Assuming they can devote time to making either Fried
Chicken or Shirts:
a. Draw the production possibility curve for each individual! (10 points)
b. Who enjoys the absolute advantage of producing both Fried Chicken and Shirts?
(10 points)
c. Who has the higher opportunity cost of making shirts? (10 points)
