Demand and Supply, Offer Curves, and the Terms of Trade The Equilibrium Relative Commodity Price with Trade : Partial Equilibrium Analysis Offer Curves The Equilibrium Relative Commodity Price with Trade: General Equilibrium Analysis Relationship Between General and Partial Equilibrium Analyses The Terms of Trade * Offer Curves Offer curve of a nation shows the nation’s willingness to import and export at various relative commodity prices. The offer curve was first derived by English economists Edgeworth and Marshall to help explain international trade. Alfred Marshall (1842-1924) Principles of Economics (1890) * Derivation of the Offer Curve of Nation 1 Autarky Here, an increase in the price of X leads country 1 to buy MORE imports from country 2, but uses fewer exports to purchase the imports. An increase in the price of X means ? * Derivation of the Offer Curve of Nation 2 * Ch4.
