4. Effects of a tariff on international trade The following graph shows the domestic supply of and demand for wheat in New Zealand. The world price (Pw) of wheat is $255 per bushel and is represented by the horizontal black line. Throughout the question, assume that the amount demanded by any one country does not affect the world price of wheat and that there are no transportation or transaction costs associated with international trade in wheat. Also, assume that domestic suppliers will satisfy domestic demand as much as possible before any exporting or importing takes place.

Home Demand: 90 - 2Pt Foreign Demand: 50 - 4Pt*Home Supply: 30 + 2Pt Foreign Supply: 10 + 2Pt* There are demand and supply functions for good corn for the home country and demand and supply functions for good wheat for the foreign country. Home country as an importer and foreign country as an exporter trade with each other, at zero cost of transportation.A. Find and graph the equilibrium under free trade. What is the world price and thevolume of trade? Also, in the absence of trade, what are the prices that would prevailin home country for corn and in foreign country for wheat?.(Pt = Pt* = Pw -> Pw; world prices)B. Suppose home imposes a specific tariff of 5 on corn imports. Find and graph theeffects of tariff on price of corn in each country, on the quantity of corn supplied anddemanded in each country, on volume of trade? And briefly explain these results inrelation to the effects of the tariff?C. Let the tariff conditions in section (b) be valid. Determine and graph the effect of…

Assume that Canada is an importer of televisions and that there are no trade restrictions. Canadian consumers buy 1.2 million televisions per year, of which 600,000 are produced domestically and 600,000 are imported. Suppose that a technological advance among Japanese television manufacturers causes the world price to fall $800 to $700. Draw a graph to show how this change affects the welfare of Canadian consumers and Canadian producers and how it affects total surplus in Canada. Label the diagram carefully to show all the areas using letters of alphabets. (Do not shade the areas). After the fall in price, consumers buy 1.4 million televisions, of which 400,000 are produced domestically and 1 million are imported. Calculate the change (this will be only the area either gained or lost by consumers and producers) in consumer surplus, producer surplus and total surplus due to price reduction. Provide numerical answers by calculating the area of change in surplus due to fall in…
