The following graph shows the domestic demand for and supply of oranges in Guatemala. The world price (Pw) of oranges is $520 per ton and is displayed as a horizontal black line. Throughout the question, assume that all countries under consideration are small, that is, the amount demanded by any one country does not affect the world price of oranges and that there are no transportation or transaction costs associated with international trade in oranges. Also, assume that domestic suppliers will satisfy domestic demand as much as possible before any exporting or importing takes place.

A country decides to impose higher tariffs on imported goods to encourage domestic production. This policy change impacts the circular flow of income and expenditure by altering the dynamics of international trade. In this scenario, the imposition of tariffs on imports primarily:A) Acts as a leakage in the circular flowB) Functions as an injection into the circular flowC) Has no significant impact on the circular flowD) Reduces government expenditure in the circular flow Note:- Please avoid using ChatGPT and refrain from providing handwritten solutions; otherwise, I will definitely give a downvote.

What would be the effect of ANWR production on the world price of oil given that ɛ = - 0.50, 1 = 0.40, the pre-ANWR daily world production of oil is Q, = 82 million barrels per day, the pre-ANWR world price is p, = $100 per barrel, and daily ANWR production would be 0.8 million barrels per day? For simplicity, assume that the supply and demand curves are linear and that the introduction of ANWR oil would cause a parallel shift in the world supply curve to the right by 0.8 million barrels per day. Determine the long-run linear demand function that is consistent with pre-ANWR world output and price. The long-run demand function is Q = 123 – 0.41p`. Determine the long-run linear supply function that is consistent with pre-ANWR world output and price. The long-run supply function is Q = 49.2 + 0.328p`. Determine the post-ANWR long-run linear supply function. The long-run supply function with ANWR oil production is Q= 50 + 0.328p'. Use the demand curve and the post-ANWR supply function to…

Suppose Zambia is open to free trade in the world market for soybeans. Because of Zambia's small size, the demand for and supply of soybeans in Zambia do not affect the world price. The following graph shows the domestic soybeans market in Zambia. The world price of soybeans is Pw = $400 per ton. Throughout this problem, assume that changes in trade policies in other nations do not significantly affect the world market for soybeans and that there are no transportation or transaction costs associated with international trade in soybeans. Also assume that domestic supplies will satisfy domestic demand as much as possible before any exporting or importing takes place. On the following graph, use the green triangle (triangle symbols) to shade the area representing consumer surplus (CS) when the economy is at the free-trade equilibrium. Then, use the purple triangle (diamond symbols) to shade the area representing domestic producer surplus (PS). PRICE (Dollars perton) 1200 Domestic Demand…
If Bangladesh is open to international trade of wheat without any restrictions, it will import the full value for your answer, accounting for the horizontal axis units.) Suppose the Bangladeshi government wants to reduce imports to exactly 200,000 bushels of wheat to help domestic producers. A tariff of S per bushel will achieve this. A tariff set at this level would raise $ bushels of wheat. (Note: Be sure to enter in revenue for the Bangladeshi government.

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
Suppose Jordan is open to free trade in the world market for oranges. Because of Jordan's small size, the demand for and supply of oranges in Jordan do not affect the world price.

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. The following graph shows the domestic soybeans market in Colombia. The world price of soybeans is PW=$400 per ton.
China placed tariffs on the importation of US soybeans. Assume that the domestic market for soybeans in China is described by the following equations: Demand: P = 11.5 – Q Supply: P = 5.5 + Q Price is in 10 Yuan (¥) per bushel of soybeans and the units for Quantity are 100 million bushels per year. This is to make graphing simpler. This does NOT mean that the price is 10 and quantity is 100. Rather it means that if the price was 40¥ and the quantity was 7,500,000,000 bushels, this would plot as 4 and 7.5 respectively. The world price for soybeans is ¥65/bushel (this would graph as a horizontal line at 6.5). Graph the soybean market in China showing equilibrium both with no barriers to trade and with a ¥15/bushel tariff. Be sure to fully and clearly label the graph including: Domestic Demand curve (D), Domestic Supply curve (S), the World Price (WP), and the Price with tariffs (PT), along with the quantities imported both with and without the tariff. Based on your graph, what…
