Question 31
Consider a small country where the domestic market for sandals is described by the following demand and supply equations, respectively: P = 100 – (1/2)Q and P = 20 + (1/3)Q where P represents the price of a pair of sandals and Q represents the quantity of sandals. The world price for a pair of sandals is $45. Therefore the gains from trade would be
$135.00
$102.50
$88.75
$122.50
Suppose the demand and the supply for lumber (harvested wood processed in a sawmill) used for construction in Australia are given by
QD =100 – 2P
QS = 2P
Assume also that the market is perfectly competitive.
2.1. Compute the equilibrium price P* and quantity Q*.
3.1 Suppose the lumber market described in 2.1 was closed to the rest of the world. Now it opens to trade and the world price of lumber is 20. Compute the equilibrium price, quantity supplied by domestic producers, and quantity demanded by domestic consumers.
Consider the market for sneakers. The domestic demand equation is given by P=20−0.6QP=20−0.6Q, and the domestic supply equation is given by P=Q−10P=Q−10. The resulting no-trade equilibrium quantity is_____ and price is ________.
Suppose the world supply equation is P=5P=5. The resulting equilibrium price will be _______, the total quantity of sneakers purchased is ________, the quantity of sneakers produced domestically is _______ and the quantity of sneakers imported is then _________.
Suppose the government imposes an import tariff on sneakers of $4 per unit. The new equilibrium price of sneakers is _______, total imports will decrease by ________ units of sneakers, and the total revenue collected from the tariff is $______.

- Suppose that Canada has domestic firms that could supply its entire market for radios at a price of $50, while U.S. firms could supply radios at $40 and Mexico at $30. Suppose that Canada initially has a 50 percent tariff on imports of radios and then forms a free trade area with Mexico. As a result, Canada realizes: Group of answer choicesarrow_forwardSuppose that when a country opens to free trade in a good, the price of that good rises from $10 to $15. As a result, the domestic quantity supplied rises from 1,000 to 1,020 and the domestic quantity demanded falls from 1,000 to 500. What are the gains from trade?
