If the size of a tariff raises the price of an imported item $20 per unit which in turn reduces the quantity of imports by 10%, what would be the effect on the price of an imported item, if the Government imposed a 10% import quota, which requires imports to fall by 10%
Discuss the price elasticity of demand and the price elasticity of supply of goods that have low value but are limited in supply. Discuss why the reduction in world price of such commodities can be considered harmful to an economy that exports such commodities.
What will be the quantity demanded by country 1 from the rest of the world at a price of $5?

In 1998, the total demand for wheat was Q = 3,244 - 283P. Of this, total domestic demand was Qn = 1700 - 107P, and domestic supply was Qs = 1,944 + 207P Suppose the export demand for wheat falls by 50 percent.
