BUSINESS ADVANTAGE FACTORS
Absolute advantage exists when a country can produce a good or service at a lower cost than other countries.
• Example: Saudi Arabia-Oil production, Columbia-coffee, Virgin Islands-sand
Comparative advantage is a situation in which a country specializes in the production of a good or service at which it is relatively more efficient.
• Examples: China-manufacturing of clothes and household goods, America-Technology, Japan-Electroncs

MEASURING OF TRADE RELATIONSWhat is a way to measure trade relations?
Balance of trade or balance of payments

Foreign debt is the amount of money a country owes to other countries.

MEASURING OF TRADE RELATIONS CONTINUED
Balance of trade is the difference between a country’s total exports and total imports.
If a country exports more than it imports, it has a trade surplus. This is favorable.
If a country imports more than it exports, it has a trade deficit. This is unfavorable.

PRACTICE
http://www.census.gov/foreign-trade/balance/ Select 2 countries that you think the U.S. does the
most trading with and a third that you are just curious about.
Use the above website to find the values of its exports? Imports? Balance of Trade? For the most recent year.
Find previous balance of trades to discover a trend.

MEASURING OF TRADE RELATIONSCONTINUED
Balance of payments is the difference between the amount of money that comes into a country and the amount that goes out of it.
If a country receives more money in a year than it pays out, it has favorable balance.
If a country sends more money out than it brings in, it has an unfavorable balance.

WARM UP- COMPARATIVE VS. ABSOLUTE ADVANTAGE
Assume LeBron is both a great basketball player and a great lawn mower. However, LeBron has a young neighbor named Scotty who is willing to mow his lawn. Write the following facts on the board (perhaps in the form of a table):
LeBron can mow his lawn in two hours. He could also film a Nike commercial in two hours and make $10,000. So, James' opportunity cost of mowing his lawn is $10,000.
Neighbor Scotty can mow LeBron's lawn in four hours. He could also work at McDonald's for four hours and make $8 per hour. So, Scotty's opportunity cost of mowing LeBron's lawn is $32.
Who has an absolute advantage in mowing the lawn? (less resources- time)
Who has comparative advantage in mowing the lawn? (lower opportunity cost)
Would LeBron and Scotty both benefit from a trade? (if ..)

INTERNATIONAL CURRENCY EXCHANGE RATE MAIN FACTORS CONTINUED
Main factors affecting currency exchange rates are: Balance of payments
influenced by demand for a nations goods and services. If the balance of payment is favorable, then usually currency is steady
and rising in value. If unfavorable, then usually the currency is declining in value.
Economic conditions Inflation decreases buying power of currency Interest rates that are high decreases demand to borrow money.
Political stability Could be impacted by changes in government or laws.
