To produce a boat, you need wood as an intermediate good. If
this country imports both boats and wood, a 10% tariff rate can be
imposed on boat imports, and a 5% tariff rate
can be imposed on wood imports. The price of a boat is $1000 before
the tariff, and the price of one unit of wood is $100. Knowing that
three units of wood are required to produce one boat.
(a) The value added before both tariffs are imposed =
(b) The value added after both tariffs are imposed =
(c) The value added after imposing a tariff on boats only =
(d) The value added after imposing the tariff on wood only =
(e) The effective rate of protection after imposing both tariffs
=
(f) The effective rate of protection if only the tariff on boats is
imposed =
(g) The effective rate of protection if only the tariff on wood is
imposed =

Consider a small country that imports good Z. Some of the total quantity of Z domestically consumed is supplied by domestic producers and the rest of it is imported. Then suppose that the government imposed a tariff on each unit of Z that is imported, so that the quantity of Z imported is somewhat reduced. Draw a demand and supply diagram that shows the effect of the tariff. On your diagram clearly label the quantity of imports before the tariff...

U.S. Tariffs on Tire Imports from China In September 2009, President Obama placed a tariff on tire imports from China. The tariff was a response to a rising tide of imports from China and intense lobbying from the United Steelworkers union, which represents 15,000 workers at 13 tire plants in the United States. Tires imported from China are usually low- end models that sell for half...
