“国际贸易政策”习题

(注:1、请书面提交第 1-2 题的答案;2、用中文和英文作答皆可)

1. The nation of Bermuda is small and assumed to be unable to affect world


prices. It imports strawberries at the price of 10 dollars per box. The
Domestic Supply and Domestic Demand curves for boxes are:
S = 60 + 20P
D = 1160-15P
(a) Assume Bermuda is completely open to trade. What is the equilibrium
price and quantity consumed? How much is produced domestically, and how
much is imported?
(b) Now consider the effect of an import quota of 400 boxes. What happens
to the price of strawberries and quantity consumed? How much is produced
domestically, and how much is imported?
(c) Who wins and who loses? Discuss consumers, domestic producers, and
importers (Be sure to compute the change in their welfare).

2. A small country can import a good at a world price of 10 per unit. The
domestic supply curve of the good is: S = 50 + 5P. The demand curve is: D =
400-10P. In addition, each unit of production yields a marginal social benefit
of 10.
(a) Calculate the total effect on welfare of a tariff of 5 per unit levied on
imports.
(b) Calculate the total effect of a production subsidy of 5 per unit.
(c) Why does the production subsidy produce a greater gain in welfare than
the tariff?
(d) What would the optimal production subsidy be?
