Question
Suppose you have the following for white t-shirts market:
Market demand is P=125-(3/8)Q
Market supply is P=5+(1/8)Q.
Suppose it is now possible to obtain white t-shirts from the rest of the world at $15 per item at any
given quantity. In other words, there is now a global supply that is horizontal at $15.
a. Obviously the world price and domestic price will now be $15. Calculate the quantity
produced and demanded domestically. Calculate the difference as imports from the rest of the
world.
b. Calculate the CS (
with free trade? Who loses?
Hint: Use graphs first.
