Question


Transcribed Image Text:Suppose the government of the U.S. wants to protect the domestic sugar industry by restricting
sugar imports. Suppose the U.S. produces sugar domestically according to the supply curve
QS = P, and suppose the domestic demand for sugar is QD = 8 – P. The world price of sugar is
$2. For price of sugar, the units are $/lb., and for quantity of sugar, the units are 1,000,000

- A country decides to impose higher tariffs on imported goods to encourage domestic production. This policy change impacts the circular flow of income and expenditure by altering the dynamics of international trade. In this scenario, the imposition of tariffs on imports primarily:A) Acts as a leakage in the circular flowB) Functions as an injection into the circular flowC) Has no significant impact on the circular flowD) Reduces government expenditure in the circular flow Note:- Please avoid using ChatGPT and refrain from providing handwritten solutions; otherwise, I will definitely give a downvote.

For simplicity, assume that the supply and demand curves are linear and that the introduction of ANWR oil would cause a parallel shift in the world supply curve to the right by 0.8 million barrels per day. Determine the long-run linear demand function that is consistent with pre-ANWR world output and price. The long-run demand function is Q = 123 – 0.41p`. Determine the long-run linear supply function that is consistent with pre-ANWR world output and price. The long-run supply function is Q = 49.2 + 0.328p`. Determine the post-ANWR long-run linear supply function. The long-run supply function with ANWR oil production is Q= 50 + 0.328p'. Use the demand curve and the post-ANWR supply function to…arrow_forwardEconomics Questionarrow_forward
- 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…arrow_forwardSuppose that the U.S. increases its tariffs on all imported goods.
