10. Problems and Applications Q10 Consider a small country that exports steel. Suppose the following graph depicts the domestic demand and supply for steel in this country. One of the two price lines represents the world price of steel. Use the following graph to help you answer the questions below. You will not be graded on any changes made to this graph.

e. Suppose the policy makers in the newly opened economy are concerned about the welfare of computer producers. Hence, they decide to impose a 30% tariff (a tax on imports) on imported computers. Show the price of computers in the newly opened economy after the tariff is imposed. Show the consumer surplus, producer surplus, equilibrium price and quantity traded after the tariff is imposed. Also make sure to show the government's tariff revenue. f.In this newly opened economy, who benefited from the tariff? The consumers, the producers, the government? QUESTION 3 a. What are some arguments discussed in your textbook for opening up to international trade? b. What are some arguments discussed in your textbook for restricting free trade?
The U.S. is an importer of ethanol, and let’s assume they are a price-taker in the world market. Suppose that a technological advance in ethanol production in Brazil, the world’s largest exporter, drives down the world price of ethanol by $5. Draw a graph and explain how this change in world price affects consumer surplus, producer surplus, and total surplus in the U.S. market. Now suppose the U.S. government institutes an import tariff of $5 in response to the fall in the world price. On your graph label the revenue raised by the tariff and the deadweight loss created (if it exists). Who is likely to support this policy? Suppose that the fall in price is attributable not to a technological advance but to a subsidy from the Brazilian government to Brazilian ethanol producers. How would this affect your analysis?
1. Gains from trade Consider two neighboring island countries called Dolorium and Contente. They each have 4 million labor hours available per week that they can use to produce jeans, rye, or a combination of both. The following table shows the amount of jeans or rye that can be produced using 1 hour of labor. Country Dolorium Contente Jeans Rye (Pairs per hour of labor) (Bushels per hour of labor) 20 16 Initially, suppose Contente uses 1 million hours of labor per week to produce jeans and 3 million hours per week to produce rye, while Dolorium uses 3 million hours of labor per week to produce jeans and 1 million hours per week to produce rye. Consequently, Dolorium produces 15 million pairs of jeans and 20 million bushels of rye, and Contente produces 8 million pairs of jeans and 48 million bushels of rye. Assume there are no other countries willing to trade goods, so, in the absence of trade between these two countries, each country consumes the amount of jeans and rye it produces.…
[India is the world’s largest consumer of sugar. Assume the world price for sugar is $750 per ton.] [Assume India currently has a tariff of $50 per ton on sugar and imports 7 million tons of sugar.

Question 02. In terms of welfare, what is a difference between a tariff imposed by a large country and a tariff imposed by a small country? A. A tariff imposed by a large country has no deadweight consumption and production losses. B. A tariff imposed by a large country has a terms-of-trade effect. C. A tariff imposed by a small country has a terms-of-trade effect. D. A tariff imposed by a large country has no deadweight consumption loss. Question 03. The small nation of Endor currently produces 100,000 board feet of lumber at $600 per 1,000 board feet. Then it begins to trade at the world price of $500 per 1,000 board feet. As a result of trade, Endor's production falls to 50,000 board feet and its consumption increases to 200,000 board feet. What is Endor's total gain in consumer surplus once it begins to trade? A. $10,000 B. $15,000 C. $100,000 D. $150,000
B) Comparative Advantage 1. Country A has 100 workers and Country B has 100 workers. Every worker in Country A can produce 6 tons of wheat per year, or can produce 12 tons of corn per year. Every worker in Country B can produce 2 tons of wheat per year, or can produce 10 tons of corn per year. a. Which country has an absolute advantage in wheat? b. Which country has an absolute advantage in corn? c. Which country has a comparative advantage in wheat? d. Which country has a comparative advantage in corn? Suppose initially the countries do not trade and Country A has 50 workers producing corn and 50 producing wheat. Country B has 30 workers producing corn and 70 producing wheat. Fill out the following table: Country A Country B Corn Produced Wheat Produced Now the two countries trade with one another. e. What good does Country A specialize in? f.

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…
