Small Island Developing States (SIDS), particularly our Caribbean islands, are normally accused by our economists of being import dependent. Why then are we always hesitant to impose Tariffs on imports to solve our Balance of Payments problems? Why would it be slow to work on our appetites? Discuss this issue in relation to the concept of Elasticity of Demand. Also, why is the Government always imposing more and more sin taxes on alcohol and cigarettes? Is the Government so concerned about our sins when we consume these demerit goods?

A small country imports T-shirts. With free trade at a world price of $10, domestic production is 10 million T-shirts and domestic consumption is 42 million T-shirts. The country's government now decides to impose a quota to limit T-shirt imports to 20 million per year. With the import quota in place, the domestic price rises to $12 per T- shirt and domestic production rises to 15 million T-shirts per year. The quota on T- shirts causes domestic consumers to A) gain $7 million. B) lose $7 million. C) lose $70 million. D) lose $77 million
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?
Assume that the weekly domestic demand for petroleum is represented by the equation: P= -2.25Q + 600. And, the weekly domestic supply of petroleum is represented by the equation: P= 1.5Q + 25. Assume also, that the world price of petroleum is $200. What is the domestic autarky price and quantity when this economy is closed to trade? What would be the total quantity of petroleum demanded when the economy is open to international trade? What would be the volume of imports when the economy is open to trade? What is the import dependency ratio in this economy when it is open for international trade in petroleum?
