a. In the above diagram, we have plotted price on the Y-axis and quantity on the X-axis. From the table, we plot the quantity supplied and quantity demanded to get the supply and demand curves respectively.
Here, domestic (US) equilibrium for oranges is attained at the point where quantity is 8 units and price is $0.7.
b. With free trade, if world price for oranges is $0.3, quantity supplied = 4 units but, quantity demanded = 16 units.
In this case, US will import 16-4 = 12 units of oranges from the world market.
c. If tariff of $0.2 per unit is imposed on imports, price of oranges becomes world price+tariff = $0.3+$0.2 = $0.5.
At this price, quantity supplied increases to 6 units and quantity demanded falls to 12 units.
Thus, at this price, US will import 12 units - 6 units = 6 units.
Thus, with tariff, level of imports falls down.
d. In the diagram below, we have shown the net effects of imposition of tariff.
Initially, areas A,B,C and D were included in the consumer surplus. But, with imposition of tariff, area A gets added to the producer surplus whereas, area B is the gain in revenues for the government. Thus, only areas C and D are the deadweight loss or loss in welfare.
e. Quota may not have the same impact as tariff. This is because quota imposes a fixed restriction on quantity of imports. As a result, level of imports are already specified for a country.

The following graph shows the domestic supply of and demand for oranges in Jordan. The world price (Pw) of oranges is $800 per ton and is represented by the horizontal black line. Throughout the question, assume that the amount demanded by any one country does not affect the world price of oranges and that there are no transportation or transaction costs associated with international trade in oranges. Also, assume that domestic suppliers will satisfy domestic demand as much as possible...

3. Welfare effects of a tariff in a small country Suppose Zambia is open to free trade in the world market for oranges. Because of Zambia's small size, the demand for and supply of oranges in Zambia do not affect the world price. The following graph shows the domestic oranges market in Zambia. The world price of oranges is Pw = $800 per ton. On the following graph, use the green triangle (triangle symbols) to shade the area representing consumer surplus (CS)...
3. Suppose that US market demand and supply for cloth are given, respectively by the following algebraic equations: P 7-0.10Q and P 1+ 0.10Q (P is given in dollars and Q in tons). a) Plot the demand and supply schedule for clothe and determine the equilibrium price and quantity for cloth in the US in the absence of [international] trade b) If the US now allows free trade and P-$1.00 on the world market and we assume no transportation costs,...
