Rewrite the standard including synonyms or brief definitions in parentheses and in a different color following the key terms found in step 1. The student will be able to explain (clarify) why individuals, businesses (firms), and governments trade (commerce) goods and services. NEXT International Economics International Trading Goods and Services SSEIN1 The student will explain why individuals, businesses, and governments trade goods and services. NEXT International Trade KEY CONCEPT • Economic interdependence involves producers in one nation that depend on producers in other nations to supply them with certain goods and services. WHY THE CONCEPT MATTERS • Nations choose to produce some things and trade for others. For example, Japan trades for the raw materials it uses to produce automobiles. It then turns around and trades the automobiles for other goods. NEXT Benefits and Issues of International Trade KEY CONCEPTS • Nation’s economic patterns are based on the factors of production it has –patterns change over time; for example, U.S. originally agricultural • Specialization occurs when narrow range of products made –increased productivity and profit – Economic interdependence—reliance on others for products not made NEXT Resource Distribution and Specialization Example: Specialization • Costa Rica exports bananas; has warm, wet climate bananas need – relatively low agricultural wages are beneficial— production is labor intensive • New Zealand exports wool, lamb, and mutton (sheep meat) – has temperate climate, water, open grasslands needed for grazing – has low population density, scientific breeding, mechanized processing NEXT Specialization and Trade A. When nations specialize in producing the things they can make most cheaply and easily they benefit the most. B. It depends on their resources. –i.e. Climate, metals, etc. NEXT Why do nations participate in International trade? 1. To increase WEALTH! 2. Consumers get more choices. NEXT NEXT Absolute and Comparative Advantage KEY CONCEPTS Absolute advantage—nation’s ability to make product more efficiently – due to uneven distribution of production factors in different areas • Comparative advantage—ability to produce at lower opportunity cost – absolute cost of product not important, just opportunity cost • NEXT Absolute and Comparative Advantage Example: Absolute Advantage • Australia produces more iron ore and steel than China with same labor –Australia has absolute advantage NEXT Absolute and Comparative Advantage Example: Comparative Advantage • Law of comparative advantage—countries gain when: –produce items they are most efficient at producing –and are at the lowest opportunity cost • If Australia’s ratio of steel to iron ore is 1:5 tons and China’s is 1:3 –China has comparative advantage in steel production NEXT Absolute and Comparative Advantage Example: Advantages of Free Trade • If China, Australia specialize, set trade ratio steel to iron ore at 1:4 –China gets 4 tons iron ore for 1 of steel, got 3 before –Australia gets 1 ton of steel for 4 of iron ore; cost 5 before • Specialization, trade raise nations’ production ratios, world output • Increased output is mark of economic growth NEXT International Trade Affects the National Economy KEY CONCEPTS Exports—goods and services produced in one country, sold in others • Imports—products produced in one country, purchased by another –Costs and benefits of international trade vary by nation –economists examine impact of exports and imports on prices and quantity • NEXT International Trade Affects the National Economy Impact 1: Exports on Prices and Quantity • If a country begins exporting product, foreign buyers increase total demand –demand curve shifts right, sets higher equilibrium price • Higher prices at home is offset by more jobs and more income –created by production expanded to meet demand NEXT International Trade Affects the National Economy Impact 2: Imports on Prices and Quantity • Imports shift supply curve right, lower equilibrium price • Lower prices lead domestic producers to offer less of product – improve efficiency, worker productivity, customer service • Trade gives consumers increased selection of goods, lower prices • Gives producers new markets, chance for more profits NEXT International Trade Affects the National Economy The United States in the World Economy • U.S. is world’s largest exporter; exports more services than imports – tourism, transportation, architecture, construction, information systems • Also world’s largest importer; imports more goods than it exports – oil and refined oil products, machinery, raw materials • Main trading partners: Canada, China, Mexico, Japan NEXT Show What You Know! Georgia Milestone Questions International trade benefits ONLY nations that Export more than they import Import more than they export Participate in trade associations Trade according to the law of comparative advantage NEXT Show What You Know! Georgia Milestone Questions The ability of one trading nation to make a product more efficiently than another trading nation is called Comparative advantage Favorable balance of trade Voluntary export restraint Absolute advantage NEXT Show What You Know! Georgia Milestone Questions If Country A decides to export some of its televisions to Country B because the market for televisions in Country A is already well satisfied, then the Demand for televisions in Country B would decline Demand for televisions in Country A declines Price of televisions in Country A rises Price of televisions in Country B rises NEXT The End.

NEXT Barriers to Trade KEY CONCEPTS • Most nations pass trade limit laws to protect domestic industries • Laws lead to higher prices, economic retaliation by other nations • In long run, industries can only be saved by becoming competitive • Trade restrictions are basically a political issue NEXT Barriers to Trade Types of Trade Barriers • Trade barrier—law limiting free trade among nations; most mandatory • Quota—limits on the amount of a product that can be imported • Dumping—sale of product in other country at lower price than at home – hurts domestic producers; gives consumers lower price NEXT Barriers to Trade BMW Types of Trade Barriers • Tariff—fee charged for goods brought from another country • Revenue tariff—tax on imports, specifically to raise money –rarely used today • Protective tariff—tax on imported goods to protect domestic products –raise price of goods more cheaply elsewhere NEXT Barriers to Trade Types of Trade Barriers • Voluntary Export Restraint (VER)—nation’s self-imposed limit on exports – VER used to avoid a quota or tariff • Embargo—law that cuts most or all trade with a specific country • Informal trade barriers—licenses, environmental, health, safety laws NEXT The Impact of Trade Barriers KEY CONCEPTS • Trade barriers may temporarily save domestic jobs –lack of competition promotes inefficiency, higher prices • Trade limits can lead to a trade war—succession of increasing trade barriers between nations NEXT The Impact of Trade Barriers Impact 1: Higher Prices • Trade barriers raise prices or keep them high – In 2000, U.S., Japan set tariffs on South Korean semiconductor chips – Korean and domestic chip prices went up in U.S. and Japan Mabach NEXT The Impact of Trade Barriers Impact 2: Trade Wars • Trade wars often result from disagreements over quotas or tariffs • Can result over other issues – EU banned U.S hormone-treated beef, U.S. set 100% tax on many EU foods Angus Beef NEXT Arguments for Protectionism KEY CONCEPTS • Protectionism—use of trade barriers to protect domestic industries –Purpose to protect jobs, national security, infant industries *new industries unable to compete with larger, established competitors NEXT Arguments for Protectionism Argument 1: Protects Domestic Jobs? • U.S. workers upset over jobs lost to countries with cheaper labor • Trade barriers generally protect inefficient production, higher prices • Laid-off voters influenced government to fund job training programs NEXT Arguments for Protectionism Argument 2: Protects Infant Industries? • Protection expected to allow new industries to grow until competitive –This is used by developing nations to keep out goods from developed nations • Some critics say that freedom from competition maintains perpetual (continuous) infancy, therefore the need for perpetual (lasting) support NEXT Arguments for Protectionism Argument 3: Protects National Security? • National security affects industries considered vital (absolutely necessary) for safety – energy industry considered vital by most nations • Political differences exist over which industries are truly vital – 2006 Dubai forced to abandon deal to operate several port facilities – critics doubted security concerns, worried over interference with trade NEXT What is the primary reason for corporations leaving the U.S.? Outsourcing • Companies move jobs to other nations with lower labor costs. NEXT What is a Trade Bloc? A large free trade area that is formed by one or more tax, tariff, and trade agreements NAFTA • North American Free Trade Agreement eliminated all tariffs and other trade barriers between the U.S., Canada & Mexico EU • European Union has 27 nations and shares currency called the euro.
