1. Using a fully labelled diagram explain what happens when a tariff is added to foreign imports. The importing country is a small country. 2. Using the information below, determine which country (Home or Foreign) exports good X, how much it exports, and at what price. You are required to use the export supply and import demand functions to arrive at your answer. Home: Q 40- 10P, Foreign: Q=50 - 10P, Q = 20 + 10P Q=10+10P 3. Using the information in the previous question, find equations for the total world demand and total world supply of good X. Solve for equilibrium world price and quantity.

The small nation of Capralia has an abundant stock of Pashmina goats, a breed that yields high-quality cashmere. Capralia's authorities are still debating whether to open their economy to international trade. The international price of cashmere is $70,000 per metric ton, and the Capralian cashmere sells for $50,000 per metric ton.

a. Consider a closed economy (an autarky). The equilibrium price of computers in this autarky is equal to $1,000. Suppose that the world price of computers is equal to $800. Does this country have comparative advantage in producing computers? If this autarky opens up to international trade, will this country export or import computers? b. Show the consumer surplus, producer surplus, equilibrium price and quantity traded for the closed economy in part-a in the market for computers.

2. Welfare effects of a tariff in a small country Suppose Guatemala is open to free trade in the world market for oranges. Since Guatemala is small relative to the international market, the demand for and supply of oranges in Guatemala have no impact on the world price. The following graph shows the domestic market for oranges in Guatemala. The world price of a ton of oranges is Pw = $350. 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.

How does the tariff affect (i) the consumer surplus, (ii) the producer surplus, and (iii) government's revenue on the market where the import tariff is applied? Briefly explain your result. Assume a country that is small and does not affect the world market implements an import tariff. How does the tariff affect the overall welfare of the country?
