1. The United States currently imports all of its coffee. The annual demand for coffee by U.S. consumers is given by the demand curve Q = 250 – 10P, where Q is quantity (in millions of pounds) and P is the market price per pound of coffee. World producers can harvest and ship coffee to U.S. distributors at a constant marginal (= average) cost of $8 per pound. U.S. distributors can in turn distribute coffee for a constant $2 per pound. The U.S. coffee market is competitive. Congress is considering a tariff on coffee imports of $2 per pound. a. If there is no tariff, how much do consumers pay for a pound of coffee? What is the quantity demanded? b. If the tariff is imposed, how much will consumers pay for a pound of coffee? What is the quantity demanded? c. Calculate the lost consumer surplus. d. Calculate the tax revenue collected by the government. e. Does the tariff result in a net gain or a net loss to society as a whole?

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 (?)
