Kazakhstan is a grape producer, as well as an importer of grapes. Suppose the following graph shows Kazakhstan's domestic market for grapes, where SK is the supply curve and DK is the demand curve. The free trade world price of grapes (Pw) is $800 per ton. Suppose Kazakhstan's government restricts imports of grapes to 120,000 tons. The world price of grapes is not affected by the quota. Analyze the effects of the quota on Kazakhstan's welfare. On the following graph, use the purple line (diamond symbol) to draw the Kazakhstan's supply curve including the quota SK+Q. (Hint: Draw this as a straight line even though this curve should be equivalent to the domestic supply curve below the world price.) Then use the grey line (star symbol) to indicate the new price of grapes with a quota of 120,000 grapes.

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.

Suppose the demand and the supply for lumber (harvested wood processed in a sawmill) used for construction in Australia are given byQD =100 – 2PQS = 1/2PAssume also that the market is perfectly competitive.Suppose the lumber market described was closed to the rest of the world. Now it opens to trade and the world price of lumber is 20. Compute the equilibrium price, quantity supplied by domestic producers, and quantity demanded by domestic consumers.2.Use a demand and supply graph to show how consumer surplus, producer surplus, and total surplus change with international trade.3. Now suppose that Country A is a major exporter of lumber to Australia and in an effort to impose sanctions on Country A, Australia imposes a tariff of t=10 on all lumber imported into Australia. Use a graph of supply and demand to show how the tariff changes consumer, producer and total surplus.4. Calculate the equilibrium price, quantity produced and demanded domestically, tariff revenue, and deadweight loss.
The following graph shows the domestic supply of and demand for soybeans in Zambia. Zambia is open to international trade of soybeans without any restrictions. The world price (Pw) of soybeans is $550 per ton and is represented by the horizontal black line.

Consider that the current world price for copper ore is $5.20 per pound. Suppose the domestic market for copper ore in Chile is described by the following demand and supply equations, respectively: P = 8.80 -0.015Q and P = 0.8 +0.025Q, where P is the price per pound, measured in dollars, and Q is the quantity measured in thousands of pounds per month. Similarly, suppose that the domestic market for copper ore in Japan is described by the following demand and supply equations: P = 6.80 -0.02Q and P = 0.8 +0.04Q, where P is the price per pound, measured in dollars, and Q is the quantity measured in thousands of pounds per month. (Question 7 of 8) After receiving requests from lobbyists and domestic producers, the government of the importing country imposes a tariff of $0.30 in the market for copper ore. As a result of the government's policy, what is the change in the government's revenue in the importing country? (report your answer at 2 decimal places)
