You have two countries, A and B, two factors of production, L and K, and two commodities, X and Y. A is labor-abundant, B is capital-abundant, X is labor-intensive, Y is capital intensive, and the tastes in the two countries are identical.

(b) Explain the problems involved in using the individual indifference curves as community indifference curve and under what conditions we can use them.
