The time needed to produce one unit of Rice and Clothing is given in the following table: Rice Clothing Asia 10h 30h Europe 20h 20h Demand for Rice in Asia is: DA = 1000 (1 - PR/PV) Demand for Rice in Europe is: DE = 500 (1 - PR/PV) a) Graphically represent the supply of rice as a function of the relative PR/PV price in Asia b) What are the productions of balance in autarky in Asia?
