Export subsidies result in a welfare loss to the home country due to the protective and consumption effects. In order to determine the magnitude ofthese effects, you must compare the change in consumer and producers surplus against the cost of the subsidy.On the previous graph, use the green quadrilateral (triangle symbols) to indicate the loss in consumer surplus due to the export subsidy. Then use thepurple quadrilateral (diamond symbols) to indicate the gain in producer surplus as a result of the export subsidy.The taxpayer cost of the export subsidy equalsUsing all of the previous information, compute the value of deadweight loss in Canada as a result of the export subsidy.Deadweight Loss = Loss in Consumer Surplus + Cost of Subsidy - Gain in Producer Surplus$ 8.

Assume that Canada is a relatively small producer of wheat, so changes in its output do not affect the world price of wheat. Also assume thatCanada is currently open to free trade, and domestic consumers are able to purchase wheat at the world price with negligible transportation costs.Suppose a subsidy of $80 per ton is granted to exporters in Canada, allowing them to sell their products abroad at prices below their costs. Assumethat trade restrictions are also put in place in order to prevent domestic consumers from buying wheat abroad at the world price.Use the grey line (star symbols) to indicate the world price of wheat plus the subsidy on the following graph. Then use the black point (plus symbol) toindicate the price of wheat in Canada and the quantity demanded at that price.

Below is a domestic supply and demand graph for cotton. Label the free trade equilibrium point (FTE). Assume a tariff is placed on imported cotton that eliminates all imports. 1. Label the tariff equilibrium point (TE). 2. Shade in the lost gains from trade (LGT) because of this tariff. Lost gains from trade are also called deadweight loss. 3.

Kazakhstan is a grape producer, as well as an importer of grapes. Suppose the following graph shows Kazakhstan's domestic market for grapes, where SK is the supply curve and Dk is the demand curve. The free trade world price of grapes (Pw) is $800 per ton. Suppose Kazakhstan's government restricts imports of grapes to 120,000 tons. The world price of grapes is not affected by the quota. Analyze the effects of the quota on Kazakhstan's welfare. 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.)

Suppose the world price of corn, P*, is higher than Mexico’s autarky price, and Mexico currently offers its corn producers an export subsidy $s/unit. Use a domestic-market graph to: a) show the effect of removing the export subsidy on Mexico’s domestic price, domestic supply, domestic demand, export quantity, consumer surplus, producer surplus, and government expenditure assuming that Mexico is a small country; b) Assuming that consumers are also taxpayers that used to pay for the government’s subsidy expenditure in the above graph, identify the change in consumer surplus due to the removal of the export subsidy.

The small nation of Capralia has an abundant stock of Pashmina goats, a breed that yields high-quality cashmere. Capralia's authorities are still debating whether to open their economy to international trade. The international price of cashmere is $70,000 per metric ton, and the Capralian cashmere sells for $50,000 per metric ton.

Consider a large country with a domestic demand characterized by the inverse demand function P=1000-Q. Domestic supply is represented by the equation P=400+Q. Finally, the world price of the good is 900. You know that an export tariff pass-through is 10%, meaning that foreign price decreases by 10% value of an export tariff t; more generally, 10% of any change in the domestic price is absorbed by the world market. a) Draw a diagram of a free trade case, label imports, consumer and producer surplus. b) Now you want to introduce export quota restrictions g. Calculate the value of the optimal export quota q, which maximizes domestic welfare. Illustrate CS, PS, QR, and DWL on your graph. Calculate their numerical values.
When China’s clothing industry expands, the increase in the world supply lowers the world price of clothing. Draw an appropriate diagram to analyze how this change in price affects consumer surplus, producer surplus, and total surplus in a nation that imports clothing, such as the United States. Now, draw an appropriate diagram to show how this change in price affects consumer surplus, producer surplus, and total surplus in a nation that exports clothing, such as the Dominican Republic. Compare your answers (a) and (b). what are the similarities, and what are the differences? Which country should be concerned about the expansion of the Chinese textile industry? Which country should be applauding it? Explain.
Suppose the United States provides a production subsidy to its import-competing producers of solar panels (a product the United States imports). For simplicity, assuming the United States is a small open economy,(a) Use a domestic-market graph to show the effect of the production subsidy on domestic consumer surplus, domestic producer surplus, government expenditure, and total welfare; (b) How would the effect on domestic consumer surplus change if the consumers have to pay taxes to finance the government expenditure? (c) Between a tariff and a production subsidy, which policy leads to a greater deadweight loss? Illustrate your answer graphically and identify the extra deadweight loss. (d) Between a tariff and a production subsidy, which policy is more preferred by domestic consumers assuming that consumers have to pay taxes to finance the government expenditure?

One of the accomplishments of the Uruguay Round that took place between 1986 and 1993 was significant across-the-board tariff cuts for industrial countries, as well as many developing countries. Suppose that as a result of the Uruguay Round, Canada reduces its import tariffs to 13%.
