Explanation:

In general, an increase in international trade often leads to economies of scale, access to cheaper resources, etc., which typically result in lowered costs (as businesses can source cheaper inputs or produce more efficiently), more jobs (due to expanded production and market reach), and increased workers' wages (as businesses grow and demand for labor increases). Higher costs are not a typical result of increased international trade; instead, trade usually aims to reduce costs.

Answer:

B. higher costs
