Suppose that Guatland protects its motorcycle industry with a quota that raises domestic prices by $100 per unit. If Guatland’s government were to then impose a tariff of $90 per motorcycle, what would happen to Guat motorcycle imports? What would be the welfare effects of this tariff on the Guat economy?
The tariff would increase the price of the imported goods and this would reduce quantity demanded. So, import would fall. Also, domestic consumers would be able to consume less number of motorcycles and that too at a high price. So, they would suffer a welfare loss.

The figure below shows the hypothetical domestic supply and demand for baseball caps in the country of Spain. The world price ls also shown on the graph. Suppose that there are currently no import restrictions on baseball caps and that Spanish consumers are Indifferent between domestic and imported baseball caps. Now suppose that because of intense lobbying by domestic baseball cap manufacturers, the Spanish government decides to impose an import quota of 20,000 basebell caps per...
Paradise is a small country that under free trade imports roses at $2.00 a dozen. Its domestic demand curve and domestic supply curve for roses are as follows: D = 100 - 10 P S = 10 + 10 P Calculate the equilibrium quantity imported under free trade. Under free trade: M = _________ If the government imposes a tariff of $1.00 on roses show graphically and calculate the impact of this tariff Graph: Under tariff: Domestic...

Suppose Bolivia is open to free trade in the world market for
wheat. Because of Bolivia’s small size, the demand for and supply
of wheat in Bolivia do not affect the world price. The following
graph shows the domestic wheat market in Bolivia. The world price
of wheat is PWPW = $250 per ton.
On the following graph, use the green triangle (triangle
symbols) to shade the area representing consumer...

Part II. Problem-solving questions Consult Figure below to finish blanks in Question 16 and 17. Curve SS represents a domestic supply curve for some good X; if X is a competitive industry, then SS represents the horizontal sum of the marginal cost curves of many firms. Curse DD represents domestic demand for the same good. It is implicitly assumed that consumers do not care where the good was made, they simply want to buy the indicated quantities at the indicated...
X COD Suppose that United States furniture makers import $100 of wood and parts in order to make a dining room table that sells for $500. The wood and parts imports have no tariff or quota restrictions. The U.S. places a tariff of 40% on dining tables. This means the value added will increase from. The effective rate of protection is_ Assume the U.S. is a small country. $400 to $500, 40% $400 to $600, 50% $400 to $500, 40%...
