The demand for cameras in a certain country is given by D = 8000 – 30P, where P is the price of acamera. Supply by domestic camera producers is S = 4000 + 10P. If this economy opens to tradewhile the world price of a camera is $50, and the government imposes a tariff of $30 per camera,what will be the quantity of cameras that this country imports or exports?
The demand for cameras in a certain country is given by D = 8000 - 30P, where P is the price of a camera. Supply by domestic camera producers is S 4000 + 10P.

E1 Kazakhstan is a “small” country that cannot affect world prices. Their demand for coffee is given by D : QD = 400–10P and their supply of coffee is given by S : QS = 50 + 5P. The world price of coffee is $10. a) If Kazakhstan engage in free trade, determine whether Kazakhstan imports or exports coffee, and in what quantity. Suppose Kazakhstan imposes an import quota on coffee of 50 units. b) Determine the price of coffee in Kazakhstan. c) Determine the size (numerically) of the quota rents. d) Determine the overall effect on welfare in Kazakhstan (again, with a numerical value) of the quota, relative to free trade. [Hint: it might be VERY helpful to draw an accurate graph, or use a graphing program to help you identify and calculate the relevant areas you are looking for]
On the following graph, use the purple line (diamond symbol) to draw the Kazakhstan's supply curve including the quota SK+Q. (Hint: Draw this as a straight line even though this curve should be equivalent to the domestic supply curve below the world price.) Then use the grey line (star symbol) to indicate the new price of grapes with a quota of 120,000 grapes. PRICE (Dollars per ton) 4000 3600 3200 2800 2400 2000 1600 Q1200 800 400 0 0 40 S.

In the previous graph, use the green area (triangle symbol) to shade the area that represents the effect of the quota on domestic producer surplus (PS) relative to domestic producer surplus under free trade. Use the tan quadrilateral (dash symbols) to shade the area that represents the quota rents. Finally, use the black areas (plus symbol) to indicate…

The figure shows a country’s domestic supply and demand curves for a good, as well as the world price, Pw, for the good that it faces, as a small country, on the world market. Initially, the country is exporting X1 units of that good at that price. Suppose that producers in this industry lobby policy makers to provide them with some sort of assistance to help them export even more. Policy makers are considering an export subsidy. What area represents the benefit to the producers from this subsidy? Group of answer choices b+c+d a+b+c c+d a+b

The following graph shows the domestic supply of and demand for wheat in New Zealand. The world price (PWPW) 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.
