Suppose India decides to remove the tariff, show the effect of this change on India’s imports on the graph. Clearly label the new domestic quantity demanded and the quantity supplied. You must use the same graph as you have drawn in answer to Part a to show this new scenario. How does this policy affect consumers, producers, and the government in India? You only have to state who benefits or harms from the policy

Determine and graph the effects of the tariff on the following: (1) the price ofwheat in each country; (2) the quantity of wheat supplied and demanded in each country; (3) the volume of trade.b. Determine the effect of the tariff on the welfare of each of the following groups:(1) Home import-competing producers; (2) Home consumers; (3) the Homegovernment.c. Show graphically and calculate the terms of trade gain, the efficiency loss, and thetotal effect on welfare of the tariff.
Part F. If home country imposes a specific tariff of $15 per unit of good Y imported, what is the tariff revenue? Show your work. Part G. Assume that instead of a specific tariff, an import quota will be used on good Y. What is the amount of the quota that will have identical effects (in terms of amount of good Y imports and the domestic price of good Y) as the specific tariff of $15? Explain your reasoning. Part H. 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.

5. A graphical comparison of tariffs and quotas Alagir and Ertil are small countries that protect their economic growth from rapidly advancing globalization by limiting the import of rugs to 20 million. To this end, each country imposes a different type of trade barrier when the world price (Pw) is $2,000. In Alagir, the government decides to impose a tariff of $3,000 per rug; in Ertil, the government implements a quota of 20 million rugs. Assume that Alagir and Ertil have identical domestic demand (Do) and supply (S) curves for rugs as shown on the following graph. Under these conditions, the price of rugs is $5,000 per rug in each country. 10000 ( ) 8000 8000 7000 8000 5000 4000 3000 2000 1000 0 0 Pu 10 Do 20 D₁ XX ✩ XX 30 40 50 60 70 QUANTITY (Millions of rugs) 80 S 90 100 (?)
