Topic 3 Assignment The following graph shows the domestic supply of and demand for maize in Bangladesh. Bangladesh is open to international trade of maize without any restrictions. The world price (Pw) of maize is $245 per ton and is represented by the horizontal black line. Throughout this problem, assume that the amount demanded by any one country does not affect the world price of maize and that there are no transportation or transaction costs associated with international trade in maize. Also, assume that domestic suppliers will satisfy domestic demand as much as possible before any exporting or importing takes place. Use the graph input tool to help you answer the following questions. You will not be graded on any changes you make to this graph.
