5. OPEC The New York Times (Nov. 30, 1993) reported that "the inability of OPEC to agree last week to cut production has sent the oil market into turmoil ... [leading to] the lowest price for domestic crude oil since June 1990." Statements True False The members of OPEC were trying to agree to cut production so they could lower the price. OPEC was unable to agree on cutting production because each country has a different production capacity. The newspaper also noted OPEC's view "that producing nations outside the organization, like Norway and Britain, should do their share and cut production." What does the phrase "do their share" suggest about OPEC's desired relationship with Norway and Britain? O OPEC would like Norway and Britain to act competitively. O OPEC would like Norway and Britain to join the cartel. O OPEC would like Norway and Britain to keep their production levels high.

The U.S. is one of the main producers of oil in the world. Still, at the current world price, there is a shortage of oil in the U.S. market and the country has to cover it through imports. Suppose the U.S. government decided to introduce an import tariff St on oil imports. i. Draw a diagram that shows the effect of this policy on the U.S. oil market and on the global oil market. Indicate the effect of oil import tariff on U.S. consumers, producers and government revenue. ii. How does this tariff affect U.S. welfare? Explain (you may use a diagram from part (a) if you want).
Use the supply and demand model to explain the price change indicated. You will likely have to do some research to find the supply and/or demand shifters. NOTE: These price changes are meant to be a little more challenging than those in the first discussion so you are probably missing something if you stop with a simple solution. Post your solutions including graphs and a detailed explanation of your reasoning
