Assume that under free trade the U.S. can import good x from France for $50 and domestic consumption and production are 14 million and 6 million respectively. This is the free trade price at which the U.S. consumes good x. a) Summarize the above information in a graph and label it carefully. b) Now assume that the U.S. places a tariff of $5 + 15% of the free trade price of good x. Describe the type of tariff imposed and calculate the tariff per unit of good x. c) Assume the tariff above changes domestic consumption to 12 million and production to 8 million. Show this on a graph. [Please draw a new graph for this question and label it carefully.]. Calculate and explain who gains and who loses and the net effect on domestic welfare due to the tariff compared with free trade. d) Now assume that instead of a tariff, the U.S. imposed a quota on good x with similar results on price and quantity. This means that the quota is the same amount as imports under a tariff and the new price due to…
The graph above is the U.S. market for some imported good. Supply is a flat curve. The U.S. can import the Chinese good for $40 and the Mexican good for $48. Assume the U.S. imposes $10 tariffs on each unit of the imported good. What will be the quantity imported? From which country? How your answer will change if the U.S. keep the $10 tariffs but join a trade bloc with Mexico? Will the country’s wellbeing increase or decrease? By how much (hint find the change in consumer surplus and the change in government revenue)? Explain your answers.
plz help Assume country A produces and consumes cupboards. The autarky price of a cupboard in country A is USD100 and the domestic production and consumption in the absence of trade is 160 units. Assume further that the free trade of cupboards is USD40, explain the partial equilibrium effect of a 50% tariff imposed by Country A on cupboards.

[India is the world’s largest consumer of sugar. Assume the world price for sugar is $750 per ton.] [Assume India currently has a tariff of $50 per ton on sugar and imports 7 million tons of sugar. Show this situation in a graph. Label the quantity demanded and the quantity supplied domestically and imports clearly on a graph. Explain your graph in 3-4 sentences. 2. [ Suppose India decides to remove the tariff, show the effect of this change on India’s imports on the graph. Clearly label the new domestic quantity demanded and the quantity supplied. You must use the same graph as you have drawn in answer to Part a to show this new scenario. How does this policy affect consumers, producers, and the government in India?

1. Welfare effects of free trade in an exporting country Consider the New Zealand market for lemons. The following graph shows the domestic demand and domestic supply curves for lemons in New Zealand. Suppose New Zealand's government currently does not allow international trade in lemons. Use the black point (plus symbol) to indicate the equilibrium price of a tonne of lemons and the equilibrium quantity of lemons in New Zealand in the absence of international trade. Then, use the green point (triangle symbol) to shade the area representing consumer surplus in equilibrium. Finally, use the purple point (diamond symbol) to shade the area representing producer surplus in equilibrium. NOTE: for the drop down question. the optionfs for first 2 are (increases or decreases), and the last drop down question is (loss or gain)
The following graph shows the domestic market for oil in the United States, where SDSD is the domestic supply curve, and DDDD is the domestic demand curve. Assume the United States is considered a large nation, meaning that changes in the quantity of its imports due to a tariff influence the world price of oil. Under free trade, the United States faced a total supply schedule of SD+WSD+W, which shows the quantity of oil that both domestic and foreign producers together offer domestic consumers. In this case, the free-trade equilibrium (black plus) occurs at a price of $240 per barrel of oil and a quantity of 9 million barrels. At this price, the United States imports 6 million barrels of oil. Suppose the U.S. government imposes a $60-per-barrel tariff on oil imports.

1. Welfare effects of free trade in an exporting country Consider the Bolivian market for lemons. The following graph shows the domestic demand and domestic supply curves for lemons in Bolivia. Suppose Bolivia's government currently does not allow international trade in lemons. Use the black point (plus symbol) to indicate the equilibrium price of a tonne of lemons and the equilibrium quantity of lemons in Bolivia in the absence of international trade. Then, use the green point (triangle symbol) to shade the area representing consumer surplus in equilibrium. Finally, use the purple point (diamond symbol) to shade the area representing producer surplus in equilibrium.
On the following graph, use the tan line (rectangle symbol) to draw the new total schedule including the tariff (SD+SW+ST). Then use the grey point (star symbol) to indicate the new market equilibrium price and quantity as a result of the tariff. The tariff’s revenue effect (the import tariff multipled by the quantity of oil imported) can be broken into 2 opponents: domestic revenue effect and terms-of-trade effect. On the previous graph, use the green rectangle (triangle symbol) to indicate the dosmetic revenue effect of the tariff. Then use the purple rectangle (diamond symbols) to indicate the terms-of-trade effect. Now consider the effect of the tariff on welfare in the United States. On the previous graph, use the black triangles (plus symbol) to indicate the deadweight loss caused by the tariff. Question: True or false: National welfare in the United States decreases as a result of a $100-per-barrel tariff on oil imports. Explain.
