All quantities are in millions of tons and all prices are in dollars per ton. Since steel is produced more cheaply in the ROW, the US imports it from the ROW under international trade. At any price, p, the imports of the Us, QM, is the excess demand for steel given by the difference between the quantity demanded and the quantity supplied domestically in the US: QM = Q8 - Qủ. Similarly, the exports of the ROw, QE, is the excess supply of steel given by the difference between how much they produce and how much they demand: QE = Qk - Q%.

Problem #3. Suppose the official price of 1 ounce of gold in the US is 21.60 dollars and the official price of gold in the UK is 3.5 pounds sterling. 3A. Assuming no transport costs, the value of 1 pound sterling is US dollars. Now suppose there are transport costs for shipping gold from one market to another. The value of one currency in terms of another will no longer be constant; instead, it can fluctuate within a range. These we referred to as gold points. If the exchange rate should fall outside of this range, gold will be snipped from one market to another. Assume that it costs 5% of the purchase price (paid by the buyer) to ship gold from one market to O another. 3B. The lower value of 1 pound sterling in terms of the dollar in this range will be and the wor upper value of this range will be Show your work and explain your answer below.
The United States simultaneously limits imports of ethanol for fuel purposes, and provides incentives for the use of ethanol in gasoline, which raise the price of ethanol by about 15 percent relative to what it would be otherwise. We do, however, have free trade in corn, which is fermented and distilled to make ethanol, and accounts for approximately 55 percent of the cost. The effective rate of protection on the process of turning corn into ethanol is percent. (Round your response to the nearest whole number.)

Assume that the United States, as a steel-importing nation, is large enough so that changes in the quantity of its imports influence the world price of steel. The following table shows the U.S. supply and demand schedules for steel, along with the overall amount of steel supplied to U.S. consumers by domestic and foreign producers. Price (Dollars per ton) 100 200 300 400 PRICE (Dollars per ton) 800 700 600 500 400 300 200 100 500 600 700 0 0 2 Using the data in the table, use the blue points (circle symbol) to plot the demand curve and use the orange points (square symbol) to plot the supply curve (domestic plus imports) on the following graph.

Home's Domestic Demand and supply curves for shoes are D = 500-10P and S = 300+20P. Foreign's domestic demand and supply curves for the same type of shoes are D = 1000-10P and S = 200 + 40P. (a) Find the autarky price and quantity for each country. If the countries trade, which country will export shoes? (b) Derive algebraically the import demand and export supply functions. Find the price and volume of trade with free trade.
Consider that the current world price for copper ore is $5.20 per pound. Suppose the domestic market for copper ore in Chile is described by the following demand and supply equations, respectively: P = 8.80 -0.015Q and P = 0.8 +0.025Q, where P is the price per pound, measured in dollars, and Q is the quantity measured in thousands of pounds per month. Similarly, suppose that the domestic market for copper ore in Japan is described by the following demand and supply equations: P = 6.80 -0.02Q and P = 0.8 +0.04Q, where P is the price per pound, measured in dollars, and Q is the quantity measured in thousands of pounds per month. (Question 7 of 8) After receiving requests from lobbyists and domestic producers, the government of the importing country imposes a tariff of $0.30 in the market for copper ore. As a result of the government's policy, what is the change in the government's revenue in the importing country? (report your answer at 2 decimal places)
China placed tariffs on the importation of US soybeans. Assume that the domestic market for soybeans in China is described by the following equations: Demand: P = 11.5 – Q Supply: P = 5.5 + Q Price is in 10 Yuan (¥) per bushel of soybeans and the units for Quantity are 100 million bushels per year. This is to make graphing simpler. This does NOT mean that the price is 10 and quantity is 100. Rather it means that if the price was 40¥ and the quantity was 7,500,000,000 bushels, this would plot as 4 and 7.5 respectively. The world price for soybeans is ¥65/bushel (this would graph as a horizontal line at 6.5). Graph the soybean market in China showing equilibrium both with no barriers to trade and with a ¥15/bushel tariff. Be sure to fully and clearly label the graph including: Domestic Demand curve (D), Domestic Supply curve (S), the World Price (WP), and the Price with tariffs (PT), along with the quantities imported both with and without the tariff. Based on your graph, what…

Consider a small country with only three producers, X, Y, and Z, who produce ink, pen, and paper, respectively. Y uses ink (output of X) in its production of pens. X produces 1,457 liters of ink monthly, Y produces 57,291 pens monthly, and Z produces 14 metric tons of paper monthly. X sells all of the ink it produces to Y at a market price of $338 per liter. Y sells 43,385 pens at a market price of $0.59 per pen and stores the rest as inventory. Z sells all of its paper at the market price of $781 per metric ton. The annual market value of production in this economy is $__?

What would be the effect of ANVWR production on the world price of oil given that E = - 0.30, n= 0.40, the pre-ANWR daily world production of oil is Q, = 82 million barrels per day, the pre-ANWR world price is p, = $100 per barrel, and daily ANWR production would be 0.8 million barrels per day? For simplicity, assume that the supply and demand curves are linear and that the introduction of ANWR oil would cause a parallel shift in the world supply curve to the right by 0.8 million barrels per day. Determine the long-run linear demand function that is consistent with pre-ANWR world output and price. The long-run demand function is Q= 106.6 - 0.246p . Determine the long-run linear supply function that is consistent with pre-ANWR world output and price. The long-run supply function is Q = 49.2 +0.328p Determine the post-ANWR long-run linear supply function. The long-run supply function with ANWR oil production is Q = 50 + 0.328p. Use the demand curve and the post-ANWR supply function to…
