If the domestic demand curve is – 0.5 Q = 10p the domestic supply curve is Q = 5p0.5, and the world price is $7.00, use calculus to determine the changes in consumer surplus, producer surplus, and welfare from eliminating free trade. The change in consumer surplus (ACS) from eliminating free trade is $. (Enter your response rounded to two decimal places.)

Suppose Zambia is open to free trade in the world market for soybeans. Because of Zambia's small size, the demand for and supply of soybeans in Zambia do not affect the world price. The following graph shows the domestic soybeans market in Zambia. The world price of soybeans is Pw = $400 per ton. Throughout this problem, assume that changes in trade policies in other nations do not significantly affect the world market for soybeans and that there are no transportation or transaction costs associated with international trade in soybeans. Also assume that domestic supplies will satisfy domestic demand as much as possible before any exporting or importing takes place. On the following graph, use the green triangle (triangle symbols) to shade the area representing consumer surplus (CS) when the economy is at the free-trade equilibrium. Then, use the purple triangle (diamond symbols) to shade the area representing domestic producer surplus (PS). PRICE (Dollars perton) 1200 Domestic Demand…
Consider two countries, Home and Foreign. In the figure below, the import demand ("IDHome") curve depicts Home's demand for Foreign's flash drives, and the import supply curve ("ISForeign") depicts Foreign's supply of flash drives to Home. Assume Home is a "large" country that levies a tariff against Foreign imports of flash drives, thereby shifting the relevant supply curve from ISForeign to ISForeign +t. For the following questions, please refer to the figure below.

With a tariff of $ 12 per flash drive, Home's consumer surplus equals $72, Foreign's producer surplus equals $ 36, Home's tariff revenue equals $72, and Home's deadweight loss equals $45. Of the Home's tariff revenue, $36 comes from Foreign's producers, and the rest comes from Home's consumers.…

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.
Consider a small open economy country that produces coffee. The world price of coffee is greater than the country’s autarky price of coffees. Opening to trade will decrease the consumer surplus of domestic coffee consumers. True/False. Remember to include your explanation.
Consider the case of the following large country (all prices are measured in euros, and quantities are measured in single units): – Domestic demand curve: P = 3600 –3Q– Domestic supply curve: P = 2Q– World free trade price of imports = 140 euros per unit– When the tariff is introduced, domestic prices rise by exactly one third of the amount of the tariff. Calculate the following. Give any decimal answers to 1 decimal place. Put your answers in the spaces provided. Also show your workouts so as I know how you arrived to your answers.Draw a diagram depicting the importing country market under free trade and with a tariff. 3Under free trade equilibrium:The quantity consumed domestically: ___________________________________________________The quantity produced domestically: ___________________________________________________The quantity imported: _ This homework is really confusing to me, especially when im tring to draw the diagrams
Suppose Colombia is open to free trade in the world market for soybeans. Because of Colombia’s small size, the demand for and supply of soybeans in Colombia do not affect the world price. The following graph shows the domestic soybeans market in Colombia. The world price of soybeans is PW=$400 per ton.
Consider the market for wheat as shown in the Wheat Exports figure. In that figure, the world price p., for wheat is $300 per tonne. a) Perform a Welfare Analysis on the free trade equilibrium. That is, describe and show the Consumer Surplus, Producer Surplus, Government Tax Receipts, Total Surplus, and any Deadweight Loss. b) Suppose the government introduces a tax on exported wheat, so that firms must pay the government $75 per tonne of wheat exported. (i) Argue why this would reduce the price paid by domestic consumers, even though wheat sold to them does not attract the tax. (ii) Perform a Welfare Analysis on the effect of this tax. That is, describe and show the Consumer Surplus, Producer Surplus, Government Tax Receipts, Total Surplus, and any Deadweight Loss. (iii) For any Deadweight Loss identified, give an intuitive description of why this deadweight loss exists. c) Suppose instead the tax were $150 per tonne for exports. (i) What price would domestic consumers now pay for…
The following graph shows the domestic supply of and demand for maize in Burundi. The world price (Pw) of maize is $270 per ton 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 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. 450 Domestic Demand Domestic Supply 430 410 390 370 350 330 310 290 P 270 250 40 80 120 180 200 240 280 320 360 400 QUANTITY (Tons of maize) If Burundi is open to international trade in maize without any restrictions, it will import tons of maize. Suppose the Burundian government wants to reduce imports to exactly 160 tons of maize to help domestic producers. A tariff of per ton will achieve this. A tariff set at this level would raise $ in revenue for the…
5. Welfare effects of a tariff in a small còuntry Suppose Burundi is open to free trade in the world market for malze. Because of Burundl's small size, the demand for and supply of malze in Burundi do not affect the world price. The followling graph shows the domestic malze market in Burundi. The world price of malze Is Pw =$350 per ton. On the following graph, use the green triangle (triangle symbols) to shade the area representing consumer's surplus (CS) when the economy is at the free-trade equllibrium. Then, use the purple triangle (diamond symbols) to shade the area representing producers' surplus (PS). 710 Domestic Demand Domestic Supply 670 CS 630 590 550 PS 510 W 470 430 390 350 310 3 9 12 15 18 21 24 27 30 QUANTITY (Thousands of tons of maize) If Burundi allows international trade in the market for maize, it will import tons of maize.

Assume that Canada is an importer of televisions and that there are no trade restrictions. Canadian consumers buy 1.2 million televisions per year, of which 600,000 are produced domestically and 600,000 are imported. Suppose that a technological advance among Japanese television manufacturers causes the world price to fall $800 to $700. Draw a graph to show how this change affects the welfare of Canadian consumers and Canadian producers and how it affects total surplus in Canada. Label the diagram carefully to show all the areas using letters of alphabets. (Do not shade the areas). After the fall in price, consumers buy 1.4 million televisions, of which 400,000 are produced domestically and 1 million are imported. Calculate the change (this will be only the area either gained or lost by consumers and producers) in consumer surplus, producer surplus and total surplus due to price reduction. Provide numerical answers by calculating the area of change in surplus due to fall in…
