Please solve 4th,5th,6th Suppose the world price for a good is 100 and the domestic demand-and supply curves are given by the following equations Demand: P=160-Q Supply: P= 10 + 15Q How much is consumed? How much is produced at home? What are the values of consumer and producer surplus? If a tariff of 10 percent is imposed, by how much do consumption and dopest production change? What is the change in consumer and producer surplus? How much revenue does the government earn from tariff?
Assume the United States is an importer of televisionsand there are no trade restrictions. U.S. consumersbuy 1 million televisions per year, of which 400,000 areproduced domestically and 600,000 are imported.a. Suppose that a technological advance amongJapanese television manufacturers causes theworld price of televisions to fall by $100. Draw agraph to show how this change affects the welfareof U.S. consumers and U.S. producers and how itaffects total surplus in the United States.b. After the fall in price, consumers buy 1.2 milliontelevisions, of which 200,000 are produced domesticallyand 1 million are imported. Calculate thechange in consumer surplus, producer surplus,and total surplus from the price reduction.c. If the government responded by putting a$100 tariff on imported televisions, what wouldthis do? Calculate the revenue that would beraised and the deadweight loss. Would it be agood policy from the standpoint of U.S. welfare?Who might support the policy?d. Suppose that the…

Suppose Home is a small exporter of wheat. At the world price of 100 US dollars per tonne, Home growers export 20 tons of wheat. Now suppose the Home government decides to support its domestic producers with a specific export subsidy of 40 US dollars per tonne. Use Figure 1 to answer the following questions: (a) Explain why consumer and producer surplus can be used to gauge the change in welfare caused by the export subsidy on individuals and firms? (b) What is the quantity exported by Home under free trade and with the export subsidy? (c) Calculate the effect of the export subsidy on consumer surplus, producer surplus, and government revenue; depict each of these in a graph. What is the overall net effect of the export subsidy on Home welfare?
Refer to above Figure. Suppose the free-trade price is $85. Also, assume an export subsidy of $10. Calculate the total cost to the government for the export subsidy. $10,000 $14,000 $5,000 $19,000.
Consider a small country. The domestic (home) demand is Qd = 120−3P and supply is Qs = 2P −20 whereQs and Qd are the quantity supplied and demanded, respectively, and P is the price per unit.A) Suppose the government impose a quota that limits the quantity of imports to 20 units. Find thenew equilibrium price, domestic quantity supplied and demanded, and quantity imported.B) Calculate Consumer surplus, producer surplus, and total surplus, with free tradeC) Calculate Consumer surplus, producer surplus, tax revenue, total surplus, and deadweight loss withtrade and the tariff in place.D) How would the deadweight loss and total surplus differ with trade and a quota in place, be specific.
The market for pencils has a domestic demand equation P=20−0.5Q�=20−0.5�, and a domestic supply equation P=5+Q�=5+�, where quantity is measured in thousands. The world supply equation for pencils is PW=10��=10. If trade is allowed, what is the resulting equilibrium price and quantity?
Part F. If home country imposes a specific tariff of $15 per unit of good Y imported, what is the tariff revenue? Show your work. Part G. Assume that instead of a specific tariff, an import quota will be used on good Y. What is the amount of the quota that will have identical effects (in terms of amount of good Y imports and the domestic price of good Y) as the specific tariff of $15? Explain your reasoning. Part H. Consider the use of import tariff vs. import quota in Home country that will result in the same amount of good Y imports and the domestic price of good Y. If quota rents are given to Foreign country, which policy, i.e., import tariff vs. import quota, is preferable by Home country on the basis of its effect on social welfare? Explain your reasoning.
The demand and supply functions for a product in two large countries are given as: Country A Country B Qd = 56 - 4P Qd = 110 – 4P Qs = -4 + 2P Qs = -10 + P The importing country imposes an ad valorem tariff of 20%. Calculate the change in consumer surplus, producer surplus, government revenue and social welfare after the imposition of tariff in the importing nation.
