Assume a perfectly competitive market and the exporting country is small. Using a demand and supply diagram, show the impact of increasing standards on a low-income exporter of toys. Show the tariffs impact. Is the effect on toy prices the same or different? Why is a standards policy preferred to tariffs?
8. What is the welfare loss to producers (decrease in producer's surplus) resulting from trade in country 2? (a) $3 (b) $27 (c) $31.5 (d) $40.5 (e) $45
PROBLEM (5) (tariff) The domestic (US) demand and supply for soy is p = 80 − QD and p = QS + 10 respectively. US market is very small relative to the world market, and the world (equilibrium) price is $20. Draw one graph for the market marking all intercepts and intersections to help you with (a) and (b) below. (a) If there is NO trade, what is the CS, PS, net domestic benefits, DWL?(b) If there is free trade, what is the CS, PS, net domestic benefits, DWL? How many units are imported? Now the state imposes a tariff of t dollars per unit.(c) What should be the tariff amount t to maximize tariff revenues? In this case, what is the DWL?(d) What should be the tariff amount t so that consumers and producers equally well off (CS equals PS)? (e) What should be the tariff amount t to maximize PS?(f) What is the most efficient tariff amount t? What is the least efficient tariff amount t? (i.e. that minimizes and maximizes DWL respectively.)
3. Consumer surplus and producer surplus from market exchange 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 the international trade in lemons. Use the black point (plus symbol) to indicate the equilibrium price of a ton 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. Note: Select and drag a fill area point from the palette to the graph. To fill in regions on the graph, merely drop the fill area point on the desired region. Based on the previous graph, total surplus in the absence of international trade is $____ million.

World Trade Organization 1. Explain the agreement under the Uruguay Round on the tariff and tariff quotas of agricultural products? 2. What countries used special treatment provisions on imports of sensitive products? Indicate the country and the assigned products. 3. Do you think that WTO can ensures strict health and safety regulations are not being used as an excuse to protect domestic producers? Why? 4. How the least -developed countries became dependent on the on the subsidized exports?5. Discuss the effects of domestic support on imports and export? Give example.
Suppose country B is a small export country (price taker) in the world market of lamp trade. Its domestic demand on and supply for lamp are: D＝18－P, S＝－12＋2P. The world market price of lamp is 14. (a) Calculate the equilibrium price and quantity of lamp in country B before trade. (c) Calculate B’s quantity of exported lamp under free trade. (c)Draw graph and calculate the net welfare effect of free trade on B’s consumers, producers and the whole country.
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.
Economics 4. Depict on graph and briefly explain economic consequences of export subsidy: • for domestic exporters; • for domestic consumers; • for government budget; • for national economic welfare as a whole.
How do I figure these out? Please show the steps. Thanks. Refer to a graph that shows a domestic market for COVID19 Vaccine in Korea and U.S. to answer the following questions. Suppose that each country is an open economy and the world price of vaccine is $30. Which country is an importing country? (How do I figure this out?) How much is the amount of import? Which country is an exporting country? How much is the amount of export? 2) Calculate the consumer surplus, producer surplus, total surplus, and gains from trade in Korea. Also, do the same for the U.S. Thanks
The president of the United States issues a quota on the amount of steel that can be imported from England. England thinks the quota is unfair and that the quota has been imposed as a punishment for recent political activity in England that reflects badly on the United States. The proper body to resolve this dispute between the United States and England is: 1. the United Nations. 2. the World Trade Organization. 3. a United States court. 4. an English court.
Hi can you please help me with the calculations and working? Imagine a market with demand and supply as follows: D: p=10-q and S: p=q. 1. Find the equilibrium price, quantity, producer and consumer surplus, and total welfare 2. Now suppose there is a world price of $1 for the good. Which party (consumers or producers) would refuse to transact at the autarky price? Describe the new equilibrium in terms of: I. Consumer and producer surplus and welfare II. Imports 3. Now suppose a $1 tariff is introduced, making the local price $2. You may assume for now the imposition of a tariff does not change the world price. Compare welfare (including the government tariff revenue)I. With the situation before the tariffII. With the situation in autarky 4. Suppose this country is the only country in the world that demands this good. Derive a world demand for the good over the range from Price = 0 to Price = autarky Price. (hint: The world demand is the demand for imports to this country.) 5. Go back…
