home cheese alc=1hr/kg wine alw=2hrs/gallon foreign cheese alc*=6hrs/kg wine alw*=3hrs/gallon Calculate the Home country's opportunity cost of producing cheese. In which product does the Home (Foreign* ) country has an absolute advantage? Show in which product does the Home (Foreign* ) country has comparative advantage? Calculate the relative supply (RS) With trade, what is the equilibrium range that the relative price of cheese to wine will settle? Supposing that the intersection of RS and RD occurs at PC /PW = 1, what is the implication?
S=20+20P and D = 100-20P are Home's supply and demand curves for wheat. * S = 40 + 20P and D = 80-20P are Foreign's supply and demand curves for wheat. With free trade the price of wheat is $ (Enter your response rounded to the nearest penny.) Suppose home imposes a specific tariff of $0.50 on wheat. Home consumers will now pay $ and foreign's export price is $ (Round your responses rounded to the nearest penny.) Now assume that foreign is a much larger country. Specifically, Foreign's demand curve for wheat is D = 800-200P. Its supply curve is S = 400 + 200P. * With free trade the price of wheat is $ (Round your response rounded to the nearest penny.) Suppose Home imposes a specific tariff of $0.50 on wheat.

Suppose Kenya is open to free trade in the world market for wheat. Because of Kenya's small size, the demand for and supply of wheat in Kenya do not affect the world price. The following graph shows the domestic wheat market in Kenya. The world price of wheat is Pw = $250 per ton. Throughout this problem, assume that changes in trade policies in other nations do not significantly affect the world market for wheat and that there are no transportation or transaction costs associated with international trade in wheat. 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) 490 400 430 400 370 340 310 280 250 220…
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.

Suppose there are three countries, the EU, Mexico, and Asia, in the world and the EU imports electronics from either Mexico or Asia (or both). Assume that Mexico is a small supplier and Asia is a large supplier and the free-trade prices of electronics from Mexico and Asia are PMEXICO=$1,200 and PASIA=$1,000, respectively, and the EU initially imposes a 15% tariff on both Mexico and Asia. Now the EU forms an FTA with Mexico. Use a graph of import demand and export supply curves to show the impact of this FTA on EU’s consumer surplus, government revenue, and welfare. Is the EU better off or worse off with the FTA? In the above graph, identify the effect of the FTA on Mexico’s producer surplus. Suppose after the FTA with the EU, Mexico invests in its electronics industry and lowers its marginal cost such that its free-trade price is PMEXICO=$1,100. How would the graph and the answer in parts (a) and (b) change?

Topic 3 Assignment The following graph shows the domestic supply of and demand for maize in Bangladesh. Bangladesh is open to international trade of maize without any restrictions. The world price (Pw) of maize is $245 per ton and is represented by the horizontal black line. Throughout this problem, assume that the amount demanded by any one country does not affect the world price of maize and that there are no transportation or transaction costs associated with international trade in maize. Also, assume that domestic suppliers will satisfy domestic demand as much as possible before any exporting or importing takes place.

The United States imports a lot of cars, despite having its own auto industry. Each of the following statements are arguments some people could make for restricting imports of cars into the United States. For each statement, identify the threat to the U.S. industry that the argument is trying to counter, and identify the opportunities that would be given up if the argument wins. SELECT THE CORRECT ANSWER a. “Foreign manufacturers are offloading their cheap cars onto the U.S. market. We should stop this so that consumers have access to higher-quality U.S. cars.” -National security requires that strategically important goods be produced domestically. -Protection can help infant industries develop. -Foreign competition may lead to job losses. -Anti-dumping laws prevent unfair competition. -Trade should not enable foreign firms to skirt U.S. regulations. b. “We must foster the innovation of small car companies, like Tesla.
