Step by step
Solved in 2 steps
- Are the gains from international trade more likely to be relatively more important to large or small countries?If opening up to free trade would benefit a nation, then why do nations not just eliminate their trade barriers, and not bother with international trade negotiations?Consider the arguments for restricting trade.a. Imagine that you are a lobbyist for timber, anestablished industry suffering from low-pricedforeign competition, and you are trying to getCongress to pass trade restrictions. Which twoor three of the five arguments discussed in thechapter do you think would be most persuasiveto the average member of Congress? Explain yourreasoning.b. Now assume you are an astute student ofeconomics (not a hard assumption, we hope).Although all the arguments for restricting tradehave their shortcomings, name the two or threearguments that seem to make the most economicsense to you. For each, describe the economicrationale for and against these arguments for traderestrictions.
- If trade barriers hurt the average worker in an economy (due to lower wages), why does government create trade barriers?What is the general trend of trade barriers over recent decades: higher, lower, or about the same?The country of Pepperland exports steel to the Land of Submarines. Information for the quantity demanded (Qd) and quantity supplied (Qs) in each country, in a world without trade, are given in Table 34.6 and Table 34.7. What would be the equilibrium price and quantity in each country in a world without trade? How can you tell? What would be the equilibrium price and quantity in each country if trade is allowed to occur? How can you tell? Sketch two supply and demand diagrams, one for each country, in the situation before trade. On those diagrams, show the equilibrium price and the levels of exports and imports in the world after trade. If the Land of Submarines imposes an anti- dumping import quota of 30, explain in general terms whether it will benefit or injure consumers and producers in each country. Does your general answer change if the Land of Submarines imposes an import quota of 70?
- From earlier chapters you will recall that technological change shifts the average cost curves. Draw a graph showing how technological change could influence intra-industry trade.Show graphically that for any tariff, there is an equivalent quota that would give the same result. What would be the difference, then, between the two types of trade barriers? Hint: It is not something you can see from the graph.How would direct subsidies to key industries be preferable to tariffs or quotas?
- Assume two countries, Thailand (T) and Japan (J), have one good: cameras. The demand (d) and supply (s) for cameras In Thailand and Japan is described by the following functions: QsT=-5+14P QsJ=-10+14P QdT=60-P QdJ=80-P P is the price measured in a common currency used in both countries, such as the Thai Baht. Compute the equilibrium price (P) and quantities in each country without trade. Now assume that free trade occurs. The free-trade price goes to 56.36 Baht. Who exports and Imports cameras and in what quantities?Explain how trade barriers raise wages in protected industries by reducing average wages economy-wide.One of the global institutions that emerged over the past 75 years is GATT which stands for the General Agreement on Tariffs and O trade O time O targets taxes
