The following graph shows the same domestic demand and supply curves for tangerines in Guatemala presented in the previous graph. Suppose that
the Guatemalan government changes its international trade policy to allow free trade in tangerines. The horizontal black line (Pw) represents the
world price of tangerines at $500 per tonne. Assume that Guatemala's entry into the world market for tangerines has no effect on the world price and
that there are no transportation or transaction costs associated with international trade in tangerines. Also assume that domestic suppliers will satisfy
domestic demand as much as possible before any exporting or importing takes place.
