Consider two countries (Home and Foreign) that produce goods 1 (with labor and capital) and 2 (with labor and land) according to some constant returns to scale production functions. Initially, both countries have the same supply of labor, capital, and land. The capital stock in Home then grows. Show how the increase in the supply of capital for Home affects its production possibility frontier. Draw the relative supply curve for both the Home and the Foreign economy. If those two economies open up to trade, what will be the pattern of trade (i.e., which country exports which good)? Describe how opening up to trade affects all three factors (labor, capital, land) in both countries.
