7. Effects of a tariff in a large nation The following graph shows the domestic market for steel in the United States, where Sp is the domestic supply curve, and Dp is the domestic demand curve. Assume the United States is considered a large nation, meaning that changes in the quantity of its imports due to a tariff influence th world price of steel. Under free trade, the United States faced a total supply schedule of Sp.w. which shows the quantity of steel that both domestic and foreign producers together offer domestic consumers. In this case, the free-trade equilibrium (black plus) occurs at a price of $320 per ton of steel and a quantity of 18 million tons. At this price, the United States imports 12 million tons of steel. Suppose the U.S. government imposes a $80-per-ton tariff on steel imports. On the following graph, use the tan line (rectangle symbol) to draw the new total supply schedule including the tariff (Sp.w r). Then use the grey point (star symbol) to indicate the new…

Assume Australia is an importer of sofas and there are no trade restrictions. Australian consumers buy 1 000 000 sofas per year, of which 450 000 are produced domestically and 550 000 are imported.a Suppose that a technological advance among Swedish sofa manufacturers causes the world price of sofas to fall by $200. Draw a graph to show how this change affects the welfare of Australian consumers and Australian producers, and how it affects total surplus in Australia.b After the fall in price, Australian consumers buy 1 150 000 sofas, of which 300 000 are produced domestically and 850 000 are imported. Calculate the change in consumer surplus, producer surplus and total surplus from the price reduction.c If the government responded by putting a $200 tariff on imported sofas, what would this do? Calculate the revenue that would be raised and the deadweight loss. Would it be a good policy from the standpoint of Australian welfare? Who might support the policy?d Suppose that the fall in…
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. ecause this country exports steel, the world price is represented by . Suppose that a “pro-trade” government decides to subsidize the export of steel by paying $10 for each ton sold abroad. With this export subsidy, the price paid by domestic consumers is per ton, and the price received by domestic producers is per ton. The quantity of steel consumed by domestic consumers , the quantity of steel produced by domestic producers , and the quantity of steel exported . True or False: With the export subsidy, domestic producers will sell steel to domestic consumers and sell the rest abroad. True False Under the export subsidy, consumer surplus is and producer surplus is . Government revenue by (increases or Decreases) . As a…
Economists argue for free trade in import markets because importing goods decreases total surplus. no one is made worse off by importing goods. all consumers and producers benefit from importing goods. O the gains to the U.S. producers outweigh the losses to the U.S. consumers the gains to the U.S. consumers outweigh the losses to the U.S. producers
