What would happen to U.S. economic welfare if the U.S. eliminated tariffs on solar panel imports? A. U.S. economic welfare would increase because of the social gains from increased U.S. consumption of solar panels B. U.S. economic welfare would decrease because the social gains from increased U.S. production of solar panels would be less than the social costs associated with increased U.S. consumption of solar panels C. U.S. economic welfare would decrease because the social gains from increased U.S. consumption of solar panels would be less than the social costs inflicted on U.S. solar panel producers D. U.S. economic welfare would increase because the social gains from increased U.S. production of solar panels would exceed the social costs associated with increased U.S. consumption of solar panels
Suppose India decides to remove the tariff, show the effect of this change on India’s imports on the graph. Clearly label the new domestic quantity demanded and the quantity supplied. You must use the same graph as you have drawn in answer to Part a to show this new scenario. How does this policy affect consumers, producers, and the government in India? You only have to state who benefits or harms from the policy

Draw a domestic supply and demand diagram for a product in which the United States does not have a comparative advantage. What impact do foreign imports have on domestic price and quantity? On your diagram show a protective tariff that eliminates approximately one-half of the assumed imports. What are the price-quantity effects of this tariff on ( a) domestic consumers, (b) domestic producers, and (c) foreign exporters? How would the effects of a quota that creates the same amount of imports differ?
