If the United States is currently importing 14 million barrels per day at a world price of $4.00 per unit (the entire amount consumed), what is the effect on imports of a tax equal to $4.00 per unit? 1.) Using the line drawing tool, help determine the quantity of U.S. crude oil imports after the $4.00 per-unit tax by drawing a horizontal line at the price paid by U.S. consumers. Label this line + Tax'. 2.) Using the point drawing tool, determine quantity demanded at the price paid by U.S. consumers after the imposition of the import tax. Label this line 'Pop'. 3.) Using the point drawing tool, determine quantity supplied at the price paid by U.S. consumers after the imposition of the import tax. Label this line "Pas". Carefully follow the instructions above and only draw the required objects. The amount of imports after the $4.00 per-unit tax is million barrels per day. Before the tax, domestic producers supplied 0 barrels of crude oil. They now supply million barrels Price per barrel…
Which of the following would help to reduce imports? Select one: a) A fall in quotas b) Increased borrowings c) Fall in subsidy to domestic firms d) A fall in tariffs e) Decreased import substitution
(a) Draw an offer curve for Guatemala that shows its offer of coffee for wheat. Include both an elastic and inelastic range in Guatemala’s offer curve. (b) Draw an offer curve for the United States that shows its offer of wheat for coffee. Show this US curve intersecting the Guatemalan offer curve in the inelastic range of the Guatemalan curve. Note the equilibrium terms of trade established. (c) Compare the equilibrium international price you found in question (b) to the autarky prices in Guatemala and in the United States. (You can find a country’s autarky price by drawing a line tangent to the offer curve at the origin.) Explain which country benefits the most from a more favorable movement in its terms of trade when it abandons its autarky position. (d) “The Guatemalan offer curve is likely to be less elastic than the US offer curve.” Justify this claim by explaining what factors determine the elasticity of an offer curve.
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…
4. Effects of a tariff on international trade The following graph shows the domestic demand for and supply of oranges in Honduras. The world price (Pw) of oranges is $535 per ton and is displayed as a horizontal black line. Throughout the question, assume that all countries under consideration are small, that is, the amount demanded by any one country does not affect the world price of oranges and that there are no transportation or transaction costs associated with international trade in oranges. Also, assume that domestic suppliers will satisfy domestic demand as much as possible before any exporting or importing takes place. Domestic Demand 775 735 X 695 655 615 535 + 895 PRICE (Dollars per ton) 855 815 575 495 Domestic Supply 0 50 100 150 200 250 300 350 400 450 500 QUANTITY (Tons of oranges) PW A tariff set at this level would raise ? If Honduras is open to international trade in oranges without any restrictions, it will import Suppose the Honduran government wants to reduce…

Assume that the United States, as a steel-importing nation, is large enough so that changes in the quantity of its imports influence the world price of steel. The following table shows the U.S. supply and demand schedules for steel, along with the overall amount of steel supplied to U.S. consumers by domestic and foreign producers. Price Quantity Supplied (Dollars per ton) (Domestic) (Domestic plus Imports) Quantity Demanded 100 0 0 15 200 4 14 300 8 13 400 12 12 500 16 11 600 20 10 700 5 24 9 Using the data in the table, use the blue points (circle symbol) to plot the demand curve and use the orange points (square symbol) to plot the supply curve (domestic plus imports) on the following graph.
