Ans.
Graph 1 -
In the absence of International trade -
Producer Surplus = 1/2 x (500 - 0 ) x ( 250)
= 1/2 x 500 x 250 = 62,500
Consumer Surplus = 1/2 x ( 1000 - 500 ) x ( 250 )
= 1/2 x 500 x 250 = 62,500
Total Surplus = Producer Surplus + Consumer Surplus
= 62500 + 62500
= $125,000
Total surplus in the absense of int. trade is $125,000 ( 1st Blank )
Graph 2 -
At the price of $800 , 100 ( 2nd blank ) tons of lemon will be demanded.
and 400 ( 3rd blank) tons will be supplied.
So Bolivia will export 300 (4th blank) tons ( 400 - 100 )
----------------
without free trade | with free trade | |
Consumer Surplus | 62500 | 10000 |
Producer Surplus | 62500 | 160000 |
Free trade,
Consumer surplus = 1/2 x ( 1000 - 800 ) x 100
= 1/2 x 200 x 100 = 10,000
Producer surplus = 1/2 x ( 800 - 0 ) x 400
= 400 x 400 = 160,000
Total surplus = 10000 + 160000 = 170,000
----------------
the country's consumer surplus decreased by 52500 ( 62500 - 10000 ) .
the producer surplus increased by 97500 ( 160,000 - 62500 ) .
net affect in total surplus is a gain of 45000 ( 170,000 - 125,000 )
