 - producing 1 bottle wine requires 4 hours.

 Brazil also has 10,000 hours of labor/month:

 - producing 1 lb. coffee requires 1 hour;

 - producing 1 bottle wine requires 5 hours.

And which and how much of their products will they exchange with each other (exports and imports)? Explain why each country is willing to accept the amount of exports and imports that you suggest (there can be many possible answers for this part of the question).
