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…
Recently, 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 = 115 – 1/15Q     Supply: P = 55 + 1/15Q Where P is Yuan per bushel of soybeans and Q is 10 million bushels per year. The world price for soybeans is ¥65/bushel. Graph the soybean market in China showing equilibrium both with no barriers to trade and with a ¥15/bushel tariff.

You are provided with the following information about the Canadian turkey market:1. The world price of turkey is $5.2. The Canadian turkey market is currently (before the new trade agreement) protected by a tariffrate quota (TRQ) of the following format:a) the in-quota tariff is $1 per unitb) the import quota volume is 100 unitsc) the over-quota tariff is $10 per unit.3. An excess demand (ED) (for imports) function for turkey has been estimated as? = 28 − 0.14?. Notes: Canada is a small importing country in the world market for turkeys. Answer the question below: The Canadian government is considering reducing the in-quota tariff to $0.50. Modify the diagram for this market, and solve for the Canadian turkey price and the volume of imports. Label all relevant functions, axes, etc.

The following graph shows the U.S. domestic market for towels. PRICE (Dolars) Domestic Demand Domestic Supply 24 72 1.20 QUANTITY (Millions of towels) Price (World) Price (Quota) (7) In the absence of foreign trade, the equilibrium price of a towel is domestic quantity supplied equal million towels. At this price, both the domestic quantity demanded and the Suppose that trade between the United States and China is open and that the United States initially imposes no tariffs or quotas on towels imported from China. Assume that China has a comparative advantage in producing towels and charges the world price of $12 per towel. (Note: Throughout the problem, assume that the amount demanded by any one country does not affect the world price of towels.) On the previous graph, use the grey line (star symbol) to indicate the world price of towels. million towels, the quantity of towels supplied by At the world price of $12 per towel, the quantity of towels demanded by U.S. buyers is U.S.…
Consider the Colombian market for soybeans. The following graph shows the domestic demand and domestic supply curves for soybeans in Colombia. Suppose Colombia's government currently does not allow international trade in soybeans. Use the black point (plus symbol) to indicate the equilibrium price of a ton of soybeans and the equilibrium quantity of soybeans in Colombia in the absence of international trade. Then, use the green triangle (triangle symbol) to shade the area representing consumer surplus in equilibrium. Finally, use the purple triangle (diamond symbol) to shade the area representing producer surplus in equilibrium. Based on the previous graph, total surplus in the absence of international trade is . The following graph shows the same domestic demand and supply curves for soybeans in Colombia. Suppose that the Colombian government changes its international trade policy to allow free trade in soybeans. The horizontal black line (PWPW) represents the world…
