  5. International Trade & the World Economy;  Charles van Marrewijk Tariffs, quota's, and other trade restrictions There are many types of trade restrictions, e.g. specific tariffs, ad valorem tariffs, quota, subsidies, prohibitions, minimum content, etc. Multilateral rounds by GATT/WTO have reduced the tariff levels considerably

  10. International Trade & the World Economy;  Charles van Marrewijk Tariffs and general equilibrium Tariff raises production of protected good, lowers production of other good trade reduced

  13. International Trade & the World Economy;  Charles van Marrewijk Chapter 8 tool: offer curves Offer curve depicts all combinations of export supply in exchange for import demand

  15. International Trade & the World Economy;  Charles van Marrewijk General equilibrium with offer curves Intersection offer curves gives trade equilibrium

  17. International Trade & the World Economy;  Charles van Marrewijk The ‘optimal’ tariff? Imposing tariff rotates offer curve, influences equilibrium

  18. International Trade & the World Economy;  Charles van Marrewijk The ‘optimal’ tariff? Tangency of trade indifference curve with foreign offer curve determines ‘optimal’ tariff

  24. International Trade & the World Economy;  Charles van Marrewijk Conclusions • There are many different types of trade restrictions • Imposing tariffs leads to winners (some producers and the government) and losers (other producers, consumers, and abroad) • Net welfare is negative if the country is ‘small’ (efficiency loss, Harberger triangles) • Net welfare effect is potentially positive if the country is ‘large’ (= can influence the world relative price level; ‘optimal’ tariff) • Net welfare effect also negative for large country with retaliation • quota equivalent to tariff, except for distribution tariff revenue • human capital intensive manufactures exports mainly in OECD countries, Central Europe, and Latin America (next slide)
