Suppose that nation A is a small nation with demand and supply of commodity X given by Qd = 120 - 20P and Qs = 20P, respectively. Assume that the free trade price of commodity X is $1, and nation A imposes an import quota of 20X. Draw a figure similar to Figure 9.1 in Salvatore and compute the following: * nation A’s price, production, consumption and imports of commodity X under free trade *nation A’s price, production, consumption and imports of commodity X under the import quota * consumption, production and trade effects of the import quota *dollar value of the consumer surplus and producer surplus before and after the imposition of the import quota *dollar value of the deadweight loss of the import quota, assuming that import licenses are distributed to selected domestic importers free of charge *the maximum price government can charge for the import licenses, and the subsequent dollar value of the deadweight loss of the import quota

Answer the given question with a proper explanation and step-by-step solution. Consider the rest of the world with free trade (production at S1 and consumption at C1 ), as shown in the graph on the right in figure 4.4A of your textbook. The international relative price of cloth now changes to 1.3 W/C. a. Using a graph, show the effects of this change in the international relative price on production and consumption in the rest of the world. b. Is this change in the international relative price an improvement or deterioration in the terms of trade of the rest of the world? According to your graph, does the rest of the world gain or lose well-being? Explain Figure 4.4A
A free-trade equilibrium exists in which United States exports Food and imports clothing from China. The goods are produced with two factors: capital and labour. The trade pattern is the one predicted by the H-O theory. Analyse the effects on the terms of trade and on the two countries’ welfare of the following:a. An import tariff on food imposed by China. b. An export subsidy on cloth by China.
