Step by step
Solved in 2 steps
- Suppose that, as part of an international trade agreement, the U.S. government reduces the tariff on imported coffee. Will this affect the supply or the demand for coffee? Why?Suppose the market for steel is expressed as follows: Domestic demand: p = 40 - 0.2q, or q = 200 - 5p Domestic supply: p = 0.2q, or q = 5p Domestic supply (foreign): p = 0.1q, or q = 10p a) What is the equilibrium price and quantity if there is free trade, with no restriction on imports? b) What is the equilibrium price and quantity if the government imposes a binding import quota of 20 units? Depict parts a and b on a single graph. c) How are US steel firms affected by the quota? US automakers? Explain briefly.Which of the following is an example of a quota? a) The United States sets a minimum or maximum price that can be charged for baked goods. b)The United States limits the number of immigrants allowed to enter the country. c) The United States sets a limit on how many firms can operate in the market for cell phones. d) The United States imposes a regulation requiring consumers to be licensed before buying pens.
- Suppose the equilibrium price for soccer tickets in a free market results in 15,000 tickets being purchased. Major League Soccer has decided to impose a price control of $19 per ticket. At a price of $19, soccer teams would be willing to supply 11000 tickets. At this price, consumers are willing to purchase 25500 tickets. Which of the following is a result of the price control?There will be a __ of ___ ticketsTaxes on producers cause the equilibrium price of a good towhat sort of shift in supply or demand would result in a market equilibrium with higher prices and sales volume?
- The market for rice in an East Asian country has demand and supply given by QD = 28 – 4P and QS = -12 + 6P, where quantities denote millions of bushels per day. a. If the domestic market is perfectly competitive, find the equilibrium price and quantity of rice. Compute the triangular areas of consumer surplus and producer surplus. b. Now suppose that there are no trade barriers and the world price of rice is $3. Confirm that the country will import rice. Find QD, QS, and the level of imports, QD – QS. Show that the country is better off than in part (a), by again computing consumer surplus and producer surplus. c. The government authority believes strongly inSuppose the government put into place a program where steel makers were given a subsidy based on the weight of nails produced. What would you expect to happen to the size and quantity of nails produced? Why? (Think about what the incentive is here.)If the US government reduces the tariff on imported coffee will this affect the supply or the demand for coffee
- An increase in taste for the good with a simultaneous decrease in subsidies will cause the equilibrium price to fall and equilibrium quantity to increase. True or FalseMuch of the demand for U.S. agricultural output has come from other countries. In 1998, the total demand for wheat was Q = 3244 - 283P. Of this, total domestic demand was QD = 1700 - 107P, and domestic supply was QS =1944 + 207P. Suppose the export demand for wheat falls by 40%. a. U.S. farmers are concerned about this drop in export demand. What happens to the free-market price of wheat in the United States? Do farmers have much reason to worry? b. Now suppose the U.S. government wants to buy enough wheat to raise the price to $3.50 per bushel. With the drop in export demand, how much wheat would the government have to buy? How much would this cost the government?what sort of shift in supply or demand would result in a market equilibrium with higher prices but lower sales volume?
