5.Suppose that a worker in Freedonia can produce either 6 units of corn or 2

years the two countries traded, each completely specializing in producing
the grain for which it has a comparative advantage. Now, however, war has
broken out between them and all trade has stopped. Without trade, Freedonia
produces and consumes 30 units of corn and 10 units of wheat per year.

price rises.
(b) vertical, because buyers purchases the same amount whether the price
rises or falls.
(c) positively sloped, because buyers respond by increasing their purchases
when price rises.
(d) horizontal, because buyers increase their purchases by huge amounts
with slight changes in price.
12.If the demand curve is liner and downward sloping, which of the following
would NOT be correct?
(a) The upper part of the demand curve is more elastic than the lower part.
(b) Elasticity will change with a movement down the curve.

part.
(d) Slope will change with a movement down the curve.
13.Suppose that 50 candy bars are demanded at a particular price. If the price
of candy bars rises by 4 percent, the number of candy bars demanded falls
to 46 candy bars. According to the mispoint method, this means that the
(a) demand for candy bars in this price range is elastic.
(b) demand for candy bars in this price range is inelastic.
(c) price elasticity of demand foe candy bars is 0.
(d) demand for candy bars is unit elastic.
14.A tax on the sellers of TVs
(a) leads sellers to supply a smaller quantity at every price.
(b) leads buyers to demand a smaller quantity at every price.
(c) leads sellers to supply a larger quantity at every price.
