The Economic Impact of Brazilian Coffee on America

Image
  For Brazilian agrobusiness, coffee is a very important crop. There is proof that both the types of coffee grown and the places where they are grown have changed over time in Brazil. It also looks like these changes are linked to structural changes that happened because the government stopped meddling in the coffee market and its effects on prices. This has set up a new way of producing coffee in the country. In this situation, the study's goal is to look at how coffee production changes over time in Brazil, find the micro-regions in Brazil that are best at coffee-related activities, and see how the locations of these micro-regions have changed over time. In this way, the study hopes to find out what economic factors make main coffee-producing regions unique. The study uses data from the Brazilian Institute of Geography and Statistics and various statistical methods like Pearson correlation, Granger causality test, location quotient, principal components, and clustering analyses t...

What Makes Brazilian Products Popular in the U.S.?

Image
  South American countries mostly provide food and minerals to the rest of the world. For example, the US buys iron ore and bauxite from Brazil, copper from Chile, coal from Colombia, silver, plum, and lithium from Bolivia and Peru, and crude oil from Brazil for Venezuela for a few years. As for food, they are always sending out different kinds of tropical fruits, like coffee, tea, nuts, suggar, orange juice, grapes, apples, mangoes, açaí, limes, bananas, and cocoa. The United States also gets most of its aluminum from South America. Alcoa and other companies are looking into bauxite, which is only found near the equator, for making alumina and aluminum bars. Embraer is a Brazilian company that makes airplanes. It is the third largest company in the world. Its major customers are US businesses and private owners who buy commercial and private jets.  The US Air Force also uses the Brazilian Tucano-powered plane as a first flight for trainers The USA also buys trucks from Brazil...

Cost of Living: Brazil vs. US Comparison

Image
  Goods and services are priced differently in different countries. For instance, travelers frequently detect that the cost of a product in a foreign country can be significantly different from that of the same product in their home country when employing the market currency exchange rate to compare prices. In general, prices are lower in impoverished countries and higher in wealthier ones. This phenomenon is referred to as the Penn effect, and it explains why it is frequently more cost-effective to purchase goods in a relatively impoverished nation than in a relatively wealthy one. We frequently seek to account for price discrepancies when comparing revenues across the globe. In order to evaluate living standards, it is necessary to determine the amount of products and services that an income can purchase on a local level. Comparing incomes through market currency exchange may result in an inaccurate representation of the situation, as prices vary across countries. Rather, we empl...

The Process for American Entrepreneurs to Open Businesses in Brazil

Image
  India, China, Indonesia, Russia, and Brazil are all natural candidates. Most analysts predict that the US economy will maintain its global leadership in the short term, owing to the Asian crisis and Europe's slow growth prospects. The US market should thus concentrate the majority of resources. The concentration of resources will continue as long as other opportunities do not arise elsewhere. Such opportunities are bound to arise in these large emerging economies, which may attract large sums of money (Mussi, 1997). In fact, the World Bank (1997) believes that the rapid growth and global integration of these five countries over the next quarter century will result in a dramatic increase in their role in the global economy, causing significant changes in global patterns of resource allocation, production, trade, and relative prices. Because of the magnitudes involved in these projections, some analysts have considered a number of countries separately, each with large dimensions....
