-There are just 2 questions below, all that pharagraph its for information only.

After three centuries under the rule of Portugal, Brazil became an independent nation in 1822. By far the largest and most populous country in South America, with a population of over 205 million, Brazil has overcome more than a half century of military intervention in the gover- nance of the country to pursue industrial and agricultural growth and the development of the interior. After crafting a fiscal adjustment program and pledg- ing progress on structural reform, Brazil received a $41.5 billion IMF-led international support program in November 1998. In January 1999, the Brazilian Central Bank announced that the real would no longer be pegged to the U.S. dollar. The consequent devaluation helped moderate the downturn in economic growth in 1999, and the coun- try posted moderate GDP growth in 2000. Economic growth slowed considerably in 2001–2003—to less than 2 percent—because of a slowdown in major markets and the hiking of interest rates by the Central Bank to combat inflationary pressures. President Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva, who took office on January 1, 2003, gave high pri- ority to reforming the complex tax code, trimming the overblown civil service pension system, and continuing the fight against inflation. By exploiting vast natural resources and a large labor pool, Brazil is today South America’s leading economic power and a regional bell- wether as it continues toward a free-market society. After winning a landslide victory in 2002 on a cam- paign to revamp the economy and battle for the poor, President Lula da Silva reassured worried investors when he continued his predecessor’s plan of strict financial aus- terity. Instead of catching the jitters as predicted, the country’s bond and stock markets enjoyed stellar returns in 2003 and are still going strong. But within a year, pres- sure was mounting on Lula da Silva to keep true to his populist roots. After riding a wave of popular support through his first year, Lula da Silva faced some criticism from within his own Workers’ Party and governing coali- tion as well as from ordinary voters. Lula has also gained a reputation for being thin-skinned when it comes to criticism; he expelled a foreign journalist critical of his policies. Although Lula’s popularity dipped through this period, da Silva was reelected in 2006, and received more votes than any other Brazilian elected president. During his second term, Brazil continued its progress in modern- ization and da Silva’s support gained steam again. In 2010, da Silva entered the final year of his second four- year term as one of the most popular Brazilian politicians of all time. But in Latin America, any change in leader- ship is always met with nervousness from financial mar- kets because it creates uncertainty and reminds business of previous transitions that have been disruptive. Brazil’s economy rebounded sharply from the global economic recession in 2009, with GDP growth of 2.7 per- cent and unemployment of 6 percent in 2011. With a GDP of US$2.5 trillion, Brazil ranks ninth globally in GDP in terms of purchasing power parity. According to The Econ- omist, Brazil is likely to become the world’s fifth largest economy, overtaking Britain and France before 2025. Brazil’s progress in fighting poverty has been one of the most impressive of any developing country. Brazil boasts a number of world class companies, including Embraer, the global leader in short- and mid-range jet aircraft. In addi- tion, Brazil will be host to the World Cup soccer match in 2014 and Rio will host the summer Olympic games in 2016. Substantial infrastructure investment is expected in advance of these two events. Brazil announced in early 2007 the discovery of the Tupi and Carioca oil fields off the coast of Rio de Janeiro. The oil reserves in these fields are con- servatively estimated at between 30 billion and 80 billion barrels, which would put Brazil in the top ten countries in the world by reserves. In May of 2010, Brazil announced another large discovery in the Santos Basin. By 2012, oil exports exceeded 800,000 bbl/day, making Brazil the 24th largest oil exporter globally. Output from the existing Campos Basin and the discovery of the new fields could make Brazil an even more significant oil exporter by 2015. Brazil’s national oil company, Petrobras, is one of the larg- est in the world. The government has created a new state- owned company called Petrosal to manage licensing in the new fields. This new company will award some explora- tion and production rights straight to Petrobras without options for foreign firms. Also, by mandate, it will award over half of the shallow-water contracts to locally owned Oil Service Companies (LOSCs). In deeper and more challenging waters beyond the capacity of local companies, foreign companies will be invited to bid. Those pledging to incorporate Brazilian “content” would be more likely to succeed. Higher taxes and fees are expected as well. Nonetheless, this sector is likely to create substantial new opportunities for foreign firms in Brazil. Most recently, the government of President Delma Rousseff, who succeeded da Silva, has faced street pro- tests over corruption, taxation, and poor public services. While Brazil has made great strides, challenges remain.

3. Considering the economic and political environ- ment, what types of companies would benefit the most by expanding operations to Brazil?

4. How should BellSouth, AES, and other companies address concerns about government policies in Brazil?

Consider the following article and answer the questions that follows: "Globalisation has raised questions in terms of emerging volatility, uncertainty, rise in poverty, and inequality in economic status of people in developing countries. Globalisation has raised questions in terms of emerging volatility, uncertainty, rise in poverty, and inequality in economic status of people in developing countries. It is said that globalisation is a hallow gift for the developing world and an award for rich countries from the WTO—hence a painful gap is visible between haves and have nots. However, globalisation is not a recent phenomenon; it started since the dawn of colonisation, including of India, when traders of the British Empire took away raw materials like cotton and jute for production in Lancashire and the same returned to India in the form of fine fabrics. Because India was a colony of Britain, this trade was imposed upon us. The same process was taking shape in the colonies of Portugal and Spain, especially in Africa. But this form of trade changed after independence of India and other countries, and since then, a new turn took place in the structure of global trade—a kind of distortion of global trade on account of cut-throat competition that was followed by the forming of regional trading blocks such as the European Economic Community and European Free Trade Association, Latin American Free Trade Association, Andean Group, ASEAN, and COMECON. We can call this movement regional globalisation, which partially related to the whole world in terms of trade and technology. Later on, these regional trading blocks started intervening among each other’s trade, shifting their professional labour and technology. Following the birth of the WTO came professionalised globalisation—the age we are living in today. Of course, globalisation offers advantages such as production-scale efficiency, innovative technology, efficient utilisation of labour, net of tax price equalisation, and equalisation of productive world savings and investment resources. In fact, the WTO provided incentives to free flow of investment, technical knowledge, professionals and consumers. However, globalisation has facilitated both investing and withdrawing funds at such speed that even financial growth finds it hard to keep up with the frequency of volatility in financial markets. Take the example of Intel. The company has been making its microchips faster while lowering the cost per chip to gain market share at an accelerated rate. It’s nothing but expelling rivals to retain competitiveness and achieving monopolisation. Intel also moved most of its manufacturing capacities from the West to countries like Malaysia, Ireland, Israel, Turkey, North Korea and China, giving the company access to cheap and trained labour, and making it geographically close to its major markets. In India, globalisation is leading to growth of a new generation of young and rich, and then there are millions of rural and urban poor—and this inequality is growing. The rich are becoming preoccupied with their own advancement, given global complexities, the poor are in a state of existential poverty. A step to improve the excessively low poverty line in India is to base it on a “nutritious” food security line, and then include education, sanitation, permanent housing and so on as part of the criteria. Considering the size of India and her economic growth, poverty differs greatly from one state to another, so poverty lines should be adapted to each state and updated regularly. India is also infamous for child labour and underpayment. Solving this issue requires a different approach for towns and cities (factories) and for rural areas (agriculture). For the last few years, India has not been able to attract substantial foreign capital, its exports have slowed, and agriculture and manufacturing are registering muted growth. If a major part of the population remains poor and is denied opportunities to become self-sufficient, the impact would be felt across the country and the results could be destabilising. Yet another unrest is seen among retired citizens. Public expenditure on pensions and healthcare could double by 2040. So, India has to focus on two issues—slowing of population growth and increasing employment opportunities by augmenting agricultural and industrial production. Agricultural sector would need better irrigation resources, fertilisers and mechanisation. India also lacks skilled staff in sectors like manufacturing, transport and financial. The government is working to reduce inequality and is extending its forces to unite the scattered countries into one universe of peace and productivity." Evaluate the following statement : "Globalisation has raised questions"?? Ofcourse Globalisation offers advantages . Explain using examples of globalised advantages? Identify and provide a detailed of any two drivers of globalisation discussed above?

'From the point of view of MNEs the process of globalisation can be seen as a movement from negative to postive location advantages.' explain this view. why can it be interpreted as suggesting that MNEs have helped to achieve the realisation of potentioal benefits from globalisation?

How are people benefitted by globalisation?

Assume that the production function is Cobb_Douglas(CD) in capital K and effective units of labor E*L:Y=F(K,EL)=(K)^a(EL)^(1-a).

Labor L is growing at rate n, productivity E increases at rate g, depreciation rate is & and savings rate is s. Marginal product of 1 unit capital goes to the capital owner and compensates him/her for depreciation & and opportunity cost r of this 1 unit: MPK=r+&. Thus, the real interest rate in Solow model is equal to r=MPK-&.

1. In his book " Capital in the Twenty_first Century" T. Piketty show that for many countries real interest rate r is greater than the growth rate of real GDP: r>n+g. What does this fact tell us about the level of capital per effective worker k=K/EL in these countries relative to the "Golden Rule"level?

2.Piketty argues that if all capital income is reinvested then the total amount of capital will grow at rate r>n+g-faster than GDP. Let's check if this is possible in the steady state in our model. Namely, assume that investments are equal to capital income, ie. i=MPK(k) * k rather than i=s*f(k)as in the standard Solow model. What will the steady state level of capital per effective worker (k*)be under this investment function? Would r>n+g still hold in that steady state?

3. When the conditions i=MPK * k and r>n+g hold simulataneously in Solow model with CD production function? Illustrate this situation with a graph.[Hint:remember that the economy may for some periods be ourside the steady state]

Which conclusion does the proportion support?

Policy issues:
Evaluating the rate of saving

? Use the Golden Rule to determine whether the U.S. saving rate and capital stock are too high, too low, or about right.

?If (MPK ? ? ) > (n + g ),
U.S. is below the Golden Rule steady state and should increase s.

?If (MPK ? ? ) < (n + g ),
U.S. economy is above the Golden Rule steady state and should reduce s.

Policy issues:
Evaluating the rate of saving

To estimate (MPK ? ? ), use three facts about the U.S. economy:

k = 2.5 y
The capital stock is about 2.5 times one year’sGDP.

? k = 0.1 y
About 10% of GDP is used to replace depreciating capital.

MPK ? k = 0.3 y
Capital income is about 30% of GDP.

Policy issues:
Evaluating the rate of saving

k = 2.5 y

? k = 0.1 y

MPK ? k = 0.3 y

To determine ? , divide 2 by 1:

?k ? 0.1y k 2.5y

? ??0.1?0.04 2.5

Policy issues:
Evaluating the rate of saving

k = 2.5 y

? k = 0.1 y

MPK ? k = 0.3 y

To determine MPK, divide 3 by 1:

MPK?k ?0.3y k 2.5y

? MPK ? 0.3 ?0.12 2.5

Hence, MPK?? = 0.12 ?0.04 = 0.08

Policy issues:
Evaluating the rate of saving

? From the last slide: MPK ? ? = 0.08
? U.S. real GDP grows an average of 3% per year,

so n + g = 0.03? Thus,

MPK?? =0.08>0.03=n+g? Conclusion:

The U.S. is below the Golden Rule steady state: Increasing the U.S. saving rate would increase consumption per capita in the long run.

Policy issues:
How to increase the saving rate

? Reduce the government budget deficit (or increase the budget surplus).

? Increase incentives for private saving:
?reduce capital gains tax, corporate income tax,

estate tax as they discourage saving.

?replace federal income tax with a consumption tax.

?expand tax incentives for IRAs (individual retirement accounts) and other retirement savings accounts.

Applications: Green Growth

? Debate among economists, environmentalists, and others about the effects of economic growth on the environment.

? Pessimists point to the fact that increased production of goods and services may imply increased degradation of the natural environment, both because production uses scarce natural resources and because it generates pollutants as a by-product.

? Hence, they argue that economic growth should not be an aim of policymakers.

Applications: Green Growth II

? Optimists note that newer, more productive technologies often are less polluting and use fewer natural resources than older production methods.

? Moreover, richer countries may wish to invest more resources in cleaning up the environment. From this perspective, growth is good for the environment.

? The truth seems to be in the middle.

Applications: Green Growth III

? Next Figure reproduces the relationship between income and the environment for various indicators of environmental quality.

? For some aspects of the environment, rich certainly does seem to be better:

? Rich countries enjoy safe water and good sanitation while poor countries do not.

? But the environmental problems of municipal waste (which fills landfills) and carbon dioxide emissions (which may contribute to global warming) are relatively worse in richer countries.

Applications: Green Growth IV

? Perhaps most interestingly, measures of air quality indicate that air pollution is worst in middle-income countries. As countries grow, their air quality apparently worsens for a while but then improves when they become sufficiently rich.

Applications: Growth and Corruption I

? Paolo Mauro (1995) has investigated the link between growth and corruption.

? He combines assessments of the degree of corruption, and the integrity of the judicial system into a measure that he termsbureaucratic efficiency (BE).

? Countries such as the United States, Finland, Japan, New Zealand, and Singapore do well in terms of the BE index; countries like Egypt, Haiti, Indonesia, Nigeria, and Thailand do poorly.

Applications: Growth and Corruption II

? There is a clear positive association: Countries with high levels of corruption and bureaucracy tend to have lower income.

? It might be the case that high-income countries develop better institutions.

? But Mauro’s statistical analyses suggest that thelink does indeed run the other way: More corrupt countries tend to be poorer and also tend to grow more slowly.

Part I Evaluation of the saving rate using the Solow model.

For China collect the data that would help you to determine the following three empirical facts: (Hint: read lecture 16)
1.1. What is the relationship between country’s capital stock and GDP?
1.2. What fraction of a country’s GDP is used to replace depreciated capital?

Use the same fact as for the U.S. economy (Lecture 16)

1.3. What fraction of a country’s GDP is equal to country’s capital income?

Kwok and Tadesse (2006) indicate that MNCs act as an agent to change a host country’s institutions and therefore help to lower incidences of corruption. Explain why MNCs often attempt to change host country institutions incidences instead of just paying their way to get things done. Explain the reasons.

1) What is an “infant industry” policy? Is it generally a good idea for the long-term health of developing economies? Explain pros and cons.

2) Give 3 specific ways in which the Internalization and Ownership parts of the OLI framework tie into VRIO based advantages,? Explain, giving at least 2 specific examples,

3) What is a “black hole” subsidiary? What should an MNC do if they identify such a subsidiary? (5 points)

4) Give four reasons why and when a strong USD would cause US-based MNCs to worry. (5 points)

5) What are three advantages and three disadvantages of Chinese inbound FDI for the USA (be specific). If the host country is a small developing country like Jamaica, would the disadvantages be any different? Explain briefly.

6)) What is a “black hole” subsidiary? What should an MNC do if they identify such a subsidiary? (5 points)

7) Give four reasons why and when a strong USD would cause US-based MNCs to worry. (5 points)

8) Guanxi is a form of collectivism that is based upon deep long term personal ties usually formed early in life. Should this be related to (a) Uncertainty avoidance and/or (b) recent government subsidies for private entrepreneurial activity. Take and firm position for both (a) and (b) and explain. The Hofstede framework should be particularly useful.

In the right triangles shown, the measure of angle HFI is the same as the measure of angle JGH. What is the length of side GH? 

Give four reasons why and when a strong USD would cause US-based MNCs to worry.

How do MNCs work?

(9 pts). In the mouse, the genetic linkage among 3 gene loci isbeing studied. The loci are not part of a sex chromosome (e.g. X orY); but, they may be part of the same autosome. There are twoalleles at each locus. At the hair locus, allele H is for hairy, and h is for thehairless phenotype. At the ear locus, allele E isfor big, and e is for small. At the tail locus,allele T is for long, and t isfor short. Upper case alleles are completely dominant to theirrespective lower case allele. No interactions.

Kahn, a hairy, long-tailed,big-eared male mouse was mated with female mice, all hairless,short-tailed and small-eared. Those matings produced 900 childrenas described in the table below

a._______________: If the 3loci were segregating independently of each other, how manychildren would be expected in the genotypic class,

Tom, a wild, male turkey (Meleagrisa gallopavo, 2N=80),had a very big night: he jumped the fence to the farm andsuccessfully mated with the entire flock of female, domesticturkeys. Tom had big wattles (w⁺), darkfeathers (d⁺) and green feet (g⁺). Thefemales were true-breeding for small wattles (w), white feathers(d) and yellow feet (g). Alleles are in parentheses and the “+”indicates the dominant allele. The three loci are notpart of a sex chromosome but they could be part of the sameautosome. No interactions among the loci and 100 %penetrance. The result of Tom’s big night, manychildren, is summarized in the table:
