Country C imports 80,000 metric tons of steel from Country U and produces domestically 80,000 metric tons per year. The world price of steel is $500 per metric ton. Assuming linear schedules, research analysts estimated the price elasticity of domestic supply to be 0.50 and theprice elasticity of domestic demand to be -0.25 in the current market equilibrium. Country C imposes an import duty of $150 per metric ton that caused the world price to fall by 10%. Summarise and analyse the quantity of steel produced, consumed and imported in Country C. Analyse and discuss the welfare gain from trade in Country C. Show your answers of the steel market with a proper diagram.

Assume the US market of sunflower oil was described by the following domestic supply and demand equations: QDUS = 8000 - 4 P and QSUS = -2000 + 6 P where QDUS and QSUS represent the quantities demanded and supplied (in billions of metric tons) and P is the price per metric ton of sunflower oil (in $). Now add this information: In 2008, China entered into the World Trade Organization and became the largest importer of US sunflower oil. Assume the Chinese import demand for sunflower oil from the US in 2008 was QDCHINA = 20000 - 10 P Given this information, what was the new equilibrium price of sunflower oil in 2008? (Hint: what is the total demand for US sunflower oil?) $1600 $1400 $1000 $1500
