3. Consumer surplus and producer surplus from market exchange Consider the Venezuelan market for soybeans. The following graph shows the domestic demand and domestic supply curves for soybeans in Venezuela. Suppose Venezuela's government currently does not allow the international trade in soybeans. Use the black point (plus symbol) to indicate the equilibrium price of a ton of soybeans and the equilibrium quantity of soybeans in Venezuela in the absence of international trade. Then, use the green point (triangle symbol) to shade the area representing consumer surplus in equilibrium. Finally, use the purple point (diamond symbol) to shade the area representing producer surplus in equilibrium. Note: Select and drag a fill area point from the palette to the graph. To fill in regions on the graph, merely drop the fill area point on the desired region. 550 Domestic Demand Domestic Supply 525 No Trade Equilibrium 500 A 475 450 Consumer Surplus 425 400 Producer Surplus 375 350 325 300 40 80…

3. Consumer surplus and producer surplus from market exchange Consider the Bolivian market for lemons. The following graph shows the domestic demand and domestic supply curves for lemons in Bolivia. Suppose Bolivia's government currently does not allow the international trade in lemons. Use the black point (plus symbol) to indicate the equilibrium price of a ton of lemons and the equilibrium quantity of lemons in Bolivia in the absence of international trade. Then, use the green point (triangle symbol) to shade the area representing consumer surplus in equilibrium. Finally, use the purple point (diamond symbol) to shade the area representing producer surplus in equilibrium. Note: Select and drag a fill area point from the palette to the graph. To fill in regions on the graph, merely drop the fill area point on the desired region. Based on the previous graph, total surplus in the absence of international trade is $____ million.
