A World View article titled "Imported Wine Squeezing U.S. Vintners'' discusses foreign wine sold in the U.S. market. According to the article, the impact of the increasing import competition is_____ A. leading states to eliminate all subsidies due to the financial crisis that has left the budget in disarray. B. encouraging more California vintners to enter the market. C. causing domestic vintners to convert their vineyards into almond and avocado farms. D. resulting in a sharply increasing wine consumption rate in the United States.
The market for pencils has a domestic demand equation P=20−0.5Q�=20−0.5�, and a domestic supply equation P=5+Q�=5+�, where quantity is measured in thousands. The world supply equation for pencils is PW=10��=10. If trade is allowed, what is the resulting equilibrium price and quantity?
The US demand curve for transporting freight by truck is а° - 580B - 60в "Р, where B denotes billion. Here, P is the price to transport a standard shipping container one mile, and quantity Q is the number of shipping-container-miles transported in a year. The marginal cost of transport is $1/mile (i.e., fuel and driver costs). Each truck can drive up to a maximum of 100,000 miles/year. Assume each truck carries one shipping container. The annual fixed cost of operating a truck is $200,000. Consequently, the average cost of a truck that drives q miles a year is ($200,000/q) +$1. All trucks have the same costs. There are no barriers to setting up a new trucking firm and/or acquiring additional trucks, and there are large numbers of people capable of running a trucking firm. Part (a) Sketch average and marginal costs for a truck, as a function of miles driven. Part (b) (i) (ii) (ii) (iv) (v) What is the price-per-mile of transporting freight by truck? How many miles does the combined US…

Problem 1 Refreshing Refreshing Trade Basics - Prices Consider the market for computers in two countries, Uruguay and Indonesia. Let's assume both have perfectly competitive domestic computer markets. In autarky (no trade), the equilibrium price of computers in Uruguay is $500, and 10,000 computers are sold. In Indonesia (under autarky), the equilibrium price of computers is $400 and 8,000 computers are sold. (a) Draw supply and demand (partial equilibrium) graphs for each of these two countries indicating how many computers are sold and at what price when neither country trades (b) Now Uruguay and Indonesia open themselves up to global trade of com- puters. Let's assume the global price of computers is $450. Describe qual- itatively what happens to the price consumers pay for computers in each of these two countries (relative to the original autarky situation) as well as how much domestic producers sell now relative to the no trade world. Also state whether each country is an importer…
The domestic demand and supply for sugar are, respectively, Qd = 60,000 − 400P and QSD = 5,000 + 200P. The foreign supply is QSF = 40,000 + 200P. What is the total supply of sugar in the domestic market? Q = 45,000 + 400P. Q = 5,000 + 200P. Q = 35,000 + 200P. Q = 55,000 + 400P.

The government of canada recently signed a new preferential trade agreement and has agreed to pay subsidies to poultry farmers to compensate for increased competition they may face from imports. You are employed as an analyst. In order to determine the dollar value of compensation you are required to estimate how the Canadian price of poultry and the quantity of imported poultry will change as a result of this new trade agreement. Canada is a small importing country in the world market for poultry. Provided is the following information about the Canadian poultry market: 1.The world price of poultry is $5 2.The Canadian poultry market is currently (before new trade agreement) protected by a tariff rate quota (TRQ) of the following format: -an in-quota tariff is $1/unit -the import quota volume is 100 units -the over-quota tariff is $10/unit 3.An excess demand (ED) for imports function for poultry has been estimated as P = 28 - 0.14Q a)Draw the diagram for imports in this market, and…
