The demand for tabiets from users in Europe is given by the demand curve Q = 300 - 2P; and the supply of tabiets from European manufacturers is given by the supply curve Q = 20 + 8P; where the price P is measured in hundreds of euros and the quantities Q are measured in milions. The market for tablets in Europe is large enough to influence the worid price. The export supply curve of foreign manufacturers selling in the European market is given by Q = 20P – 20. 1. What would be the price of a tablet in Europe if imports were banned? 2. If tabiets can be imported freely into Europe: (a) What is the equilibrium price of tablets in the European market? (b) What are the quantities consumed, produced, and imported in the European market? (C) What are the resuiting consumer, producer, and total social surpluses in Europe?

Consider that the current world price for copper ore is $5.20 per pound. Suppose the domestic market for copper ore in Chile is described by the following demand and supply equations, respectively: P = 8.80 -0.015Q and P = 0.8 +0.025Q, where P is the price per pound, measured in dollars, and Q is the quantity measured in thousands of pounds per month. Similarly, suppose that the domestic market for copper ore in Japan is described by the following demand and supply equations: P = 6.80 -0.02Q and P = 0.8 +0.04Q, where P is the price per pound, measured in dollars, and Q is the quantity measured in thousands of pounds per month. (Question 7 of 8) After receiving requests from lobbyists and domestic producers, the government of the importing country imposes a tariff of $0.30 in the market for copper ore. As a result of the government's policy, what is the change in the government's revenue in the importing country? (report your answer at 2 decimal places)
Consider a small country where the domestic market for sandals is described by the following demand and supply equations, respectively: P = 100 – (1/3)Q and P = 20 + (1/2)Q where P represents the price of a pair of sandals and Q represents the quantity of sandals. The world price for a pair of sandals is $60. Therefore the gains from trade would be
The demand for cars in a certain country is given by: ? = 15,000 − 0.3?, where P is the price of a car. Supply by domestic car producers is: ? = 5,000 + 0.2?. Suppose this economy opens to trade, and the world price of a car is $13,000. If the government imposes a quota allowing 3,000 cars to be imported, then the domestic price of cars will be
Question 31 Consider a small country where the domestic market for sandals is described by the following demand and supply equations, respectively: P = 100 – (1/2)Q and P = 20 + (1/3)Q where P represents the price of a pair of sandals and Q represents the quantity of sandals. The world price for a pair of sandals is $45. Therefore the gains from trade would be $135.00 $102.50 $88.75 $122.50
The demand for cameras in a certain country is given by D=8000−30P, where P is the price of a camera. Supply by domestic camera producers is S=4000+10P. Suppose that world price of a camera is $150. If this country decides to trade, which of the following is true? Group of answer choices 3000 cameras will be exported Domestic production of cameras will decrease by 500 Domestic production of cameras will increase by 500 2000 cameras will be imported
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…
A small country can import a good at a world price of $10 per unit. The domestic demand and supply curves are given by the following equations: Demand: D = 400 – 5P Supply: S = 20 + 10P, where D is the quantity demanded, S is the quantity supplied, and P is price a) Derive the import demand curve of the country and determine the level of imports. b) Calculate the effects of a per-unit tariff of $ 5 levied on imports on consumers, producers, government revenue, and overall national welfare, using the concepts of consumer surplus, producer surplus, and deadweight loss. c) Suppose that each unit of production yields a marginal social benefit of $10 and calculate the effect of the tariff on total welfare.

Consider two countries, home and foreign and a single good, Y. Assume that home country imports good Y from foreign country. The import demand curve for good Y in home country is given by: MD = 170 – 2PY and the export supply curve for good Y in Foreign country is given by: EX = PY – 40. A) Consider the use of import tariff vs. import quota in Home country that will result in the same amount of good Y imports and the domestic price of good Y. If quota rents are given to Foreign country, which policy, i.e., import tariff vs. import quota, is preferable by Home country on the basis of its effect on social welfare? Explain your reasoning.
Exporting countries Which of the following will be true, everything else remaining constant, for a country that exports some good? a)The greater the price elasticity of supply for the good in the exporting country, the greater the volume of exports. b) The more that consumers in the exporting country respond to a change in price, the greater will be the gains from trade. b) The smaller the price elasticity of demand and supply in the exporting country, the greater the gains from trade. c) Some domestic suppliers will lose surplus while others will gain surplus.

Consider the crude oil market in the mid-1980s in the United States. Equilibrium price was $22.67 per barrel with 9.33 million barrels consumed on a daily basis. If the world price is lower than the equilibrium price for a domestic nation (in this case, the United States), the possibility exists for foreign countries to export a product to the domestic nation. This is the case for crude oil. In this market, assume the world price of crude oil is $16 per barrel: Which of the following combinations of quantity supplied and quantity demanded would exist in the United States if the world price of crude oil is $16 per barrel as described above. O A. A quantity demanded of 11 and a quantity supplied of 6. O B. Aquantity demanded of 11 and a quantity supplied of 11. O C. A quantity demanded of 6 and a quantity supplied of 11. O D. All of the above are possible when the world price is $16 per barrel.
