Relative factor abundance, International Economics

Assignment Help:

Q. "No country is abundant in everything." Discuss.

Answer: the idea of relative (country) factor abundance is (like factor intensities) a relative concept. When we recognize a country as being capital intensive, we signify that it has more capital per worker than does the other country. If one country has supplementary capital worker than another, it is an arithmetic impossibility that it also has more workers per unit capital.
