Kazakhstan Is An Apple Producer As Well As An Importer Of Apples Suppose The Following Graph Shows Kazakhstan S Domest 1 (109.74 KiB) Viewed 15 times

Kazakhstan is an apple producer, as well as an importer of apples. Suppose the following graph shows Kazakhstan's domestic market for apples, where Sx is the supply curve and Dx is the demand curve. The free trade world price of apples (Pw) is $200 per ton. Suppose Kazakhstan's government restricts imports of apples to 200,000 tons. The world price of apples is not affected by the quota. Analyze the effects of the quota on Kazakhstan's welfare. On the following graph, use the purple line (diamond symbol) to draw the Kazakhstan's supply curve including the quota SK+Q. (Hint: Draw this as a straight line even though this curve should be equivalent to the domestic supply curve below the world price.) Then use the grey line (star symbol) to indicate the new price of apples with a quota of 200,000 apples. PRICE (Dollars per ton) 1000 900 800 700 600 500 400 300 200 100 0 0 50 SK DK W 100 150 200 250 300 350 400 450 500 QUANTITY (Thousands of tons) SK+Q The equivalent import tariff for Kazakhstan's apple import quota is $ Price with Quota A Change in PS Quota Rents DWL In the previous graph, use the green area (triangle symbol) to shade the area that represents the effect of the quota on domestic producer surplus (PS) relative to domestic producer surplus under free trade. Use the tan quadrilateral (dash symbols) to shade the area that represents the quota rents. Finally, use the black areas (plus symbol) to indicate the deadweight loss (DWL) resulting from the quota's consumption and protective effects. per ton of apples. If Kazakhstan's government auctions off the quota licenses in a well-organized, competitive auction, Kazakhstan experiences a deadweight loss of . (Hint: Select a shaded region to see its area. Be sure to adjust for the units on the quantity axis.)
