Domestic demand for natural gas in a small economy is characterized by the equation P=350-5QP=350-5Q , domestic supply is characterized by the equation Q=0.5-P+35Q=0.5-P+35 , and the world price is equal to $60. An export tariff of $6 per unit will Group of answer choices result in net welfare loss of 14.6 lead to a loss in consumer surplus lead to an export level that is less than half of the original amount result in tariff revenue that is larger than the loss in producer surplus
Assume that the domestic supply and demand for a good are given by the following equations. Q = 500 – 20 P Q = 80 + 10 P If the world price is $10 what is the free trade level of imports? Calculate the net welfare effects of a quota of 60 units. (Quota rent goes to foreign suppliers ( VERS) . Use also graph to show the effects of this quota. If %30 tariff imposed on the world price(10$) , what will be net welfare effects? Compare this welfare effect with the one in (a) and comment. Use a new graph to show the effects. Suppose the domestic industry is a Monopoly, with which commercial policy instrument ( quota or tariff? - assuming both of them yields the same level of imports- ) would it prefer to be protected and why? Explain.
Suppose Colombia is open to free trade in the world market for soybeans. Because of Colombia’s small size, the demand for and supply of soybeans in Colombia do not affect the world price.

Suppose you have the following for white t-shirts market:Market demand is P=125-(3/8)QMarket supply is P=5+(1/8)Q. Suppose it is now possible to obtain white t-shirts from the rest of the world at $15 per item at anygiven quantity. In other words, there is now a global supply that is horizontal at $15.a. Obviously the world price and domestic price will now be $15. Calculate the quantityproduced and demanded domestically. Calculate the difference as imports from the rest of theworld.b. Calculate the CS (Consumer Surplus) and PS (Producer Surplus) under free trade. Who gainswith free trade? Who loses?Hint: Use graphs first.
Kazakhstan is an apple producer, as well as an importer of apples. Suppose the following graph shows Kazakhstan's domestic market for apples, where Sx is the supply curve and Dx is the demand curve. The free trade world price of apples (Pw) is $200 per ton. Suppose Kazakhstan's government restricts imports of apples to 120,000 tons. The world price of apples 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 apples with a quota of 120,000 apples.
