Steel Industry 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. 1. Because this country exports steel, the world price is represented by P1 or P2. Suppose that a “pro-trade” government decides to subsidize the export of steel by paying $10 for each ton sold abroad. 2. With this export subsidy, the price paid by domestic consumers is $???? per ton, and the price received by domestic producers is $???? per ton. 3. The quantity of steel consumed by domestic consumers INCREASES or REMAINS UNCHANGED or DECREASES, the quantity of steel produced by domestic producers INCREASES or REMAINS UNCHANGED or DECREASES, and the quantity of steel exported INCREASES or REMAINS UNCHANGED or DECREASES. 4.

Please answer below blanks and attached pictures. When China's clothing industry expands, the increase in world supply lowers the world price of clothing. Consider the effects this has on both an importer and an exporter of clothing. Suppose the following graph represents the market for clothing in Vietnam prior to the expansion of China's clothing industry. Vietnam is an ___ of clothing because the world price is ____ the domestic equilibrium price. Note: You will have to use green points (triangle symbol) and purple points (diamond symbol) to shade the consumer and producer surplus areas on the following graphs. There are two green points and two purple points per graph. Use either one point of both to most accurately indicate the areas. For example, if indicating the consumer surplus requires only one green point, leave the second one on the palette.
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.

Now suppose other countries produce cassava and Côte d'Ivoire can import cassava at the world price (Pw) which is lower than the autarky (e. economic independence or self-sufficiency) price (Pa). Figure 2 below depicts the demand and supply curves for cassava in Côte d'Ivoire with imports. Quantity is represented on horizontal axis and price is on the vertical axis. Carefully examine Figure 2 and answer questions 8-11 that follow: Note: Qa is the Autarky quantity, Qs is the quantity of cassava supplied by producers in Côte d'Ivoire, and Qd is the quantity of cassava demanded by consumers in Côte d'Ivoire after import Figure 2: Demand and Supply of Cassava in Côte d'Ivoire with Imports Price ($) Pa Oa 9b OC Od OF or Pw 0 a Qs U d la la D₂ Quantity (kg) Question 8: Using the letters (i.e. a, b, c, d, e, f) from Figure 2, which area represents the producer surplus if Côte d'ivoire imports cassava at the world price (Pw)?

Refer to Figure 3.6, page 55. Assume that the graph depicts the U.S. domestic market for corn. How many bushels of corn, if any, will the United States export or import at a world price of $1, $2, $3, $4, and $5? Use this information to construct the U.S. export supply curve and import demand curve for corn. Suppose the only other corn-producing nation is France, where the domestic price is $4. Which country will export corn; which will import it?
The following graph shows the market for wheat in Canada, where Dc is the demand curve, Sc is the supply curve, and Pw is the free trade price of wheat. Assume that Canada is a relatively small producer of wheat, so changes in its output do not affect the world price of wheat. Also assume that Canada is currently open to free trade, and domestic consumers are able to purchase wheat at the world price with negligible transportation costs. Suppose a subsidy of $80 per ton is granted to exporters in Canada, allowing them to sell their products abroad at prices below their costs. Assume that trade restrictions are also put in place in order to prevent domestic consumers from buying wheat abroad at the world price. Use the grey line (star symbols) to indicate the world price of wheat plus the subsidy on the following graph. Then use the black point (plus symbol) to indicate the price of wheat in Canada and the quantity demanded at that price. Finally, use the tan point (dash symbol) to…
