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. The following graph shows the domestic oranges market in Jordan. The world price of oranges is Pw = $800 per ton.

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 per ton) 1280 1220 1160 1100 1040…
