Quizplus · Accepted Answer

In autarky, the East's labor force of 400 produces 60 kilos of fish per person and 20 kilos of chips per person. Therefore, total fish production is 400 * 60 = 24,000 kilos, and total chip production is 400 * 20 = 8,000 kilos. However, since people spend half their income on each good, the production is adjusted to 12,000 kilos of fish and 4,000 kilos of chips.
