1. Suppose Home is a small exporter of wheat. At the world price of $100 per ton, Home growers export 20 tons. Now suppose the Home government decides to support its domestic producer with an export subsidy of $40 per ton. Use the following figure to answer these questions. Home Price 140 100 D S 10 20 40 50 Quantity a. What is the quantity exported under free trade and with the export subsidy? b. Calculate the effect of the export subsidy on consumer surplus, producer surplus, and government revenue. c. Suppose that instead of an export subsidy of $40 per ton, the Home government applies an export subsidy of $60 per ton. Assume the domestic price after the $60 per ton export subsidy is $140 and at a price of $80 demand would be 25 and supply would be 35. Calculate the effect of the export subsidy on consumer surplus, producer surplus, and government revenue.

You are provided with the following information about the Canadian turkey market:1. The world price of turkey is $5.2. The Canadian turkey market is currently (before the new trade agreement) protected by a tariffrate quota (TRQ) of the following format:a) the in-quota tariff is $1 per unitb) the import quota volume is 100 unitsc) the over-quota tariff is $10 per unit.3. An excess demand (ED) (for imports) function for turkey has been estimated as? = 28 − 0.14?. Notes: Canada is a small importing country in the world market for turkeys. Answer the question below: The Canadian government is considering reducing the in-quota tariff to $0.50. Modify the diagram for this market, and solve for the Canadian turkey price and the volume of imports. Label all relevant functions, axes, etc.
There is a country which produces cars. It costs $11,000 for the domestic producers to produce one car, but they are not competitive on the world market where these cars are sold at $10,000. There is free trade between this country and the rest of the world right now. The government is thinking about applying export subsidies to promote car export. As a government advisor, try to give a hint whether it is good idea or not? Who wins and who loses by applying the subsidies? How much subsidy would allow domestic producers to sell on the world market? Provide the arguments on which your advice is based!

Suppose the world price of oil is $15 per barrel. At that price, the United States imports 400 million barrels daily and consumes 600 million barrels daily. The government then imposes a $5 per barrel tax on oil imports. For every dollar increase in oil prices, domestic consumption decreases by 20 million barrels per day, while domestic production increases by 40 million barrels per day. 3. What will be the cost of inefficient production, loss in consumer surplus, and deadweight loss? Use a diagram to help answer the question.
