(01.01–01.03, 05.06 HC) Assume that Athens and the Sparta use equal resources to produce consumer and capital goods, as illustrated in the table below showing maximum possible production figures. Country Capital Goods Consumer Goods Athens 70 units 210 units Sparta 50 units 100 units Draw a fully labeled production possibility curve for Athens. Place capital goods on the vertical axis and consumer goods on the horizontal axis. Assume constant opportunity cost. On your graph from part (a), label an inefficient point of production I, an efficient point of production E, and an unattainable point of production U. Which country has the comparative advantage in the production of consumer goods? Explain. If Athens shifted from producing 50 units of capital goods and 60 units of consumer goods to producing 60 units of capital goods and 30 units of consumer goods, what would be the impact on its economic growth in the long run? Based on the data table, what range of capital goods could be traded for 60 units of consumer goods that would be mutually beneficial?

(02.01 MC)This question refers to the following excerpt.”French pirates or corsairs, a nuisance in times of peace, had become a menace to Spanish shipping and to the Spanish economy as relations between France and Spain deteriorated in the 1550s. In 1556–60, the Crown’s revenue from the New World fell to half of its levels in the previous years, with much of the treasure stolen by French corsairs who preyed on Spanish vessels along the sea lanes that connected Spain and the Caribbean. For Spain’s homeward-bound mariners, one of those sea lanes lay along the Atlantic Coast of North America…A Spanish base on the Florida coast, then, would help protect the homebound silver fleets.”Source: David J. Weber, historian, The Spanish Frontier in North America, 1992How do the events described in this excerpt connect to rivalry with another European power?
