In 2005, manufacturing workers in the United States earned an average wage of $23.65 per hour. That same year, manufacturing workers in Mexico earned an average wage of $2.63 per hour. How can U.S. manufacturers possibly compete? Why isn’t all manufacturing done in Mexico and other low-wage countries?
Kazakhstan is a grape producer, as well as an importer of grapes. Suppose the following graph shows Kazakhstan's domestic market for grapes, where SK is the supply curve and DK is the demand curve. The free trade world price of grapes (Pw) is $800 per ton. Suppose Kazakhstan's government restricts imports of grapes to 60,000 tons. The world price of grapes 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 grapes with a quota of 60,000 grapes.

The following graph shows the market for wheat in the European Union (EU). The world price of wheat is $4.00 per bushel, so Sworld represents the world supply assuming that the EU cannot affect the world price of wheat. To support the agricultural sector, the EU guarantees a certain price for the farmers by imposing a variable levy of $4.00 per bushel to limit the import of wheat. On the graph, use the purple line (diamond symbol) to show the support price the farmers receive due to the variable $4.00 levy. Note: Select and drag the line segment from the palette to the graph. Then select a point on the line segment and drag it to its desired position.

Kazakhstan is a grape producer, as well as an importer of grapes. Suppose the following graph shows Kazakhstan's domestic market for grapes, where SK is the supply curve and Dk is the demand curve.
