1- The statement that an import tariff of $3 per liter of wine is an example of a specific tax is (true) , because specific tax is a flat rate of tax and the amount of specific tax changes in the same proportion as the quantity sold increase.
2- The statement that an import tariff imposed by a large economy doesn't affect the world price is false because at the point when an large economy imposes tariff on an imported item, it will make the world price fall. The explanation is that the tariff will diminish imports into the domestic nation, and since its imports speak to a sizeable extent of the world market, world demand for the item will fall. The decrease in demand will compel benefit looking firms in the rest/remainder of the world to bring down output and price so as to clear the market.
