1. The following table shows the amount of good A and good B that two countries could produce if they devoted all their resources to that good. Assume both countries have the same quantity of resources and the trade-off between good A and good B remains constant as resources are shifted from one good to another. Answer the questions below and show calculations where appropriate. (25 points)
