Kazakhstan is an apple producer, as well as an importer of apples. Suppose the following graph shows Kazakhstan's domestic market for apples, where Sx is the supply curve and Dx is the demand curve. The free trade world price of apples (Pw) is $200 per ton. Suppose Kazakhstan's government restricts imports of apples to 120,000 tons. The world price of apples 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.) Then use the grey line (star symbol) to indicate the new price of apples with a quota of 120,000 apples.

Kazakhstan is an apple producer, as well as an importer of apples. Suppose the following graph shows Kazakhstan's domestic market for apples, where SK is the supply curve and Dk is the demand curve. The free trade world price of apples (Pw) is $200 per ton. Suppose Kazakhstan's government restricts imports of apples to 200,000 tons. The world price of apples 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.) Then use the grey line (star symbol) to indicate the new price of apples with a quota of 200,000 apples.

The following graph shows the domestic supply of and demand for soybeans in Honduras. The world price (Pw) of soybeans is $530 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 soybeans and that there are no transportation or transaction costs associated with international trade in soybeans. Also, assume that domestic suppliers will satisfy domestic demand as much as possible before any exporting or importing takes place. 890 Domestic Demand Domestic Supply 850 810 770 730 690 650 610 570 Pw 530 490 50 100 150 200 250 300 350 400 450 500 QUANTITY (Tons of soybeans) PRICE (Dollars per ton)

The graph above is the U.S. market for some imported good. Supply is a flat curve. The U.S. can import the Chinese good for $40 and the Mexican good for $48. Assume the U.S. imposes $10 tariffs on each unit of the imported good. What will be the quantity imported? From which country? How your answer will change if the U.S. keep the $10 tariffs but join a trade bloc with Mexico? Will the country’s wellbeing increase or decrease? By how much (hint find the change in consumer surplus and the change in government revenue)? Explain your answers.

A small country imports salt. With free trade at the world price of $10 per pound, the country's national market is as follows: Domestic production: 100 million pounds per year Domestic consumption: 200 million pounds per year The country's government now decides to impose a $3 tariff per pound that limits salt imports to 40 million pounds per year. With the tariff in effect, the domestic production increases to 130 million pounds per year. Answer the following 3 questions according to this information. How much is the domestic producers gain or loss from the quota? How much is the domestic consumers' gain or loss after tariff? What is the government revenue from tariff?

Vietnam has a policy of free trade in motorcycles which are sold in world markets at a price of 10,000 per motorcycle. Under free trade, Vietnam produces 100,000 motorcycles and imports 100,000 motorcycles. To provide some protection to the domestic industry, Vietnam imposes an import tariff of $1500 per motorcycle. With this tariff in place, production in Vietnam rises by 5,000 motorcycles and consumption drops by the same amount. Calculate the effects of the tariff on: a. Consumer Surplus b. Producer Surplus c. Government Revenues d. Overall Welfare e. If the tariff imposed by the Vietnamese had led to small reduction in world prices of, say, 250 dollars, how, qualitatively, would the welfare calculations (a), (b), (c) and (d) above change?
