The US demand  and supply curves for wheat is

 

DUS = 100 – 20P.

 

                                                             SUS = 20 + 20P.

France supply and demand curves of wheat are

DF = 80 – 20P.

 

                                                SF = 40 + 20P.

 

2.1.Derive the excess  supply and excess demand

2.2.Determine the world price and the quantity of wheat traded at that price.

 

The US imposes a specific tariff of 0.5 on wheat imports.

2.3.Determine and graph the effects of the tariff on the following: (1) the price of wheat in each country; (2) the quantity of wheat supplied and demanded in each country; (3) the volume of trade.

 

2.4.Determine the effects of the tariff on the welfare of each of the following groups: (1) US import-competing producers; (2) US consumers; (3) the US government.

 

2.5.Show graphically and calculate the terms of trade gain, the efficiency loss, and the total effect on welfare of the tariff.

    Consider a hypothetical world consisting of only three countries: Liechtenstein, Canada, and France. Each country produces grain. Liechtenstein is a small economy compared to Canada and France and thus cannot influence foreign prices. On the following graph, the supply and demand schedules of Liechtenstein are shown as Such and Dich. Foreign supply schedules of grain are perfectly elastic: Canada is a more efficient supplier of grain than France because its supply price is $0.80 per bushel (Scu), whereas France's supply...
