There is current a 10% tariff on aluminum imported into the United States. This has the effect of a 10% increase in the price of aluminum in the U.S. Explain how the elasticity of supply could be used to evaluate the potential impact on U.S. aluminum production. Suppose the elasticity of supply for aluminum is 0.10. What is the potential impact on the domestic supply of aluminum (Calculate the percentage change is quantity supplied). What implicit assumption have you made in regards to the change in the quantity of aluminum supplied?
