Themost difficult part of section 2 is the meaning and measurement of consumer and producer surplus. Since a clear understanding of the meaning and measurementof consumer and producer surplus is crucial in evaluating the effect of tariffs, Iwould explain t hese concepts very carefully.2.I would then cover section 3 and assign problems 3-6 in the second lecture. Thetheory of tariff structure is also very difficult and important, and so I would alsoexplain this concept very carefully. I found that the best way to explain it is byusing the simple example used in the text of the suit with and without importedinputs.3.The rest of the chapter can be skipped without loss of continuity by thoseInstructors who do not wish to cover the general equilibrium effects of tariffs. 4.For those Instructors who wish to cover the rest of the chapter, I would take upanother two lectures to do so. I would also assign and grade problems 8-14 tomake sure that students understand the material.5.In covering section 8.4, I would pay special attention to the explanation of Figure8-5 and to the Stolper-Samuelson theorem.6.In covering Section 8.6, please note that the optimum tariff can only be discussedintuitively without trade indifference curves (examined in Appendix A8.6). Answer to Problems1.a) Consumption is 70Y, production is 10Y and imports are 60Y (see Figure 1 onthe next page).b) Consumption is 60Y, production is 20Y and imports are 40Y (see Figure 1).c) The consumption effect is -10Y, the production effect is +10Y, the trade effectis -20Y and the revenue effect is $40 (see Figure 1).2. a) The consumer surplus is $245 without and $l80 with the tariff (see Figure 1).b)Of the increase in the revenue of producers with the tariff (as compared withtheir revenues under free trade), $l5 represents the increase in production costsand another $15 represents the increase in rent or producer surplus (see Figure1).c) The dollar value or the protection cost of the tariff is $l0 (see Figure 1).3. This will increase the rate of effective protection in the nation.4. a) g = 0.4 - (0.5)(0.4) = 0.4 - 0.2 = 0.2 = 40%1.0 - 0.5 0.5 0.55. a) g=60%b) g=80%c) g=0d) g=20%6. a) g=70%b) See the first paragraph of section 8.3b.7. See Figure 2.8.When Nation 1 (assumed to be a small nation) imposes an import tariff oncommodity Y, the real income of labor falls and that of capital rises.9.Py/Px rises for domestic producers and consumers. As production of Y (the K-intensive commodity) rises and that of X falls, the demand and income of K rises and that of L falls. Therefore, r rises and w falls.10.If Nation 1 were instead a large nation, then Nation 1's terms of trade rise and thereal income of L may also rise.India is more likely to restrict imports of K-intensive commodities in which India has a comparative disadvantage and this is likely to increase the return to capitaland reduce the return to labor according to the Stolper-Samuelson theorem.12. See Figure 3 on the previous page.13. See Figure 4.14. a) The volume of trade may shrink to zero (the origin of offer curves).App. 1. The more elastic S H and S F are, the lower is the free trade priceof the commodity and the lower is the increase in the domesticprice of the commodity as a result of the tariff.App. 2a. The supply curve of the nation for the commodity shifts upand to the left (as with the imposition of any tax); this does not affectthe consumption of the commodity with free trade, but it reducesdomestic production and increases imports of the commodity; italso increases the revenue effect and reduces producers' surplus.b)The imposition of a tariff on imported inputs going into the domestic productionof the commodity will have no effect on the size of the protection cost ordeadweight loss.App. 3. See Figure 5 (on the next page).App. 4. See Figure 6.App. 5. Real w will fall in terms of Y and rise in terms of X. On theother hand, r eal r will rise in terms of Y and fall in terms of X. Thiscan be seen by drawing a figure similar to Figure 8-10, but with theVMPLy curve shifting upward.App. 6a. See Figure 7.c) After Nation 1 has imposed an optimum tariff and Nation 2 has retaliatedwith an optimum tariff of its own, the approximate terms of trade for Nation1 is 0.8, while the approximate terms of trade of Nation2 is 1.25.d) Nation 1's welfare declines from the reduction in the volume and in the termsof trade. Although nation 2's terms of trade are higher than under free trade,the volume of trade has shrunk so much that nation 2's welfare is also likelyto be lower than under free trade.Multiple-choice Questions1.

As the first chapter of the book, the general aim here is simply to define the fieldof study of international economics and its importance in today's interdependent world.The material in this chapter can be covered in two classes. I would utilize oneclass to cover Sections 1 to 4 and the second class to cover Sections 5 to 8. Iwould spend most of the second class on Section 6 on the major currentinternational economic challenges facing the United States and the world todayand to show how international economics can suggest ways to solve them. Thisshould greatly enhance students' motivation.Answer to Problems1. a) International economic problems reported in our daily newspapers are likely toinclude:•trade controversies between the United States, Europe, Japan, and China;•great volatility of exchange rates;•Increasing international competition from China and fear of job losses in the United States and other advanced countries.•structural unemployment and slow growth in Europe, and stagnation in Japan;•financial crises in emerging market economies;•restructuring problems of transition economies;•deep poverty in many developing nations in the world.b) Can result in trade restrictions or even a trade war, which reduce the volumeand the gains from trade;•discourage foreign trade and investments, and thus reduce the benefits from trade;•Can result in trade restrictions or even a trade war, which reduce the volume and the gains from trade;•reduces European and Japanese imports and the volume and the benefits from trade;•financial crises in emerging market economies could spread to the United States;•can lead to political instability, which will adversely affect the United States;•can lead to political instability in these countries - which also adversely affect the United States.c) Can result in your paying higher prices for imported products;•lead to great fluctuations in the price of imported products and cost of foreign travel;•Can lead higher prices for imported products and increases the chances that you will have to change jobs;•can lead you to support demands for trade protection in the United States;•can reduce the value of your investments (such as a stocks) in the United States;•can lead to your paying higher taxes for the United States to respond to these threats;•can result in your paying higher taxes to help these nations.2. a) Five industrial nations not mentioned are: Italy, France, Canada, Austria, andIreland.b) See Table 1A.c) Smaller nations, such as Ireland and Austria, are more interdependent than thelarger ones. Note that interdependence was measured by the percentage of thevalue of imports and exports (line 98c and 90c, respectively in IFS) to GDP (line99b).Table 1AEconomic Interdependence asMeasured by Imports and Exports*Source: International Financial Statistics(Washington, D.C., IMF, March 2006).3. a) Five developing nations not mentioned in the text are: Brazil, Pakistan,Colombia, Nepal, and Tunisia.b) See Table 1B.c) In general, the smaller the nation, the greater is its economic interdependence.Note that interdependence was measured by the percentage of the value ofimports and exports (line 98c and 90c, respectively in IFS) to GDP (line 99b).Table 1BEconomic Interdependence asMeasured by Imports and Exports*Source: International Financial Statistics(Washington, D.C., IMF, March 2006).4. Trade between the United States and Brazil is much larger than trade between theUnited States and Argentina. Since Brazil is larger and closer than Argentina, this trade does follow the predictions of the gravity model.5. a) Mankiw’s Economics (4th., 2007) includes the following microeconomicstopics:•The market forces of demand and supply;•elasticity and its application;•the theory of consumer choice;•consumers, producers, and the efficiency of markets;•the costs of production;•firms in competitive markets;•monopoly;•oligopoly;•monopolistic competition;•markets for the factors of production;•the demand for resources;b) Just as the microeconomics parts of your principles text deal with individualconsumers and firms, and with the price of individual commodities and factors of production, so do Parts One and Two of this text deal with production andconsumption of individual nations with nations with and without trade, and withthe relative price of individual commodities and factors of production.c) Mankiw’s Economi cs (4th., 2007) includes the following microeconomics topics:measuring a nation’s income and the cost of living;•production and growth;•savings investment and the financial system;•unemployment and its natural rate;•the monetary system, growth and inflation;•money growth and inflation;•open-economy macroeconomics: basic concepts;• a macroeconomic theory of the open economy;•aggregate demand and aggregate supply;•the influence of monetary and fiscal policy on aggregate demand;•the short-run trade off between inflation and unemployment•five debates over macroeconomic policy.d) Just as the macroeconomics parts of your principles text deal with the aggregatelevel of savings, consumption, investment, and national income, the general price level, and monetary and fiscal policies, so do Parts Three and Four of this textdeal with the aggregate amount of imports, exports, the total international flow of resources, and the policies to affect these broad aggregates.6. a) Consumer demand theory predicts than when the price of a commodity rises(cet. par.), the quantity demanded of the commodity declines.When the price of imports rises to domestic consumers, the quantity demanded of exports can be expected to decline (if everything else remains constant).7. a) A government can reduce a budget deficit by reducing governmentexpenditures and/or increasing taxes.b) A nation can reduce or eliminate a balance of payments deficit by taxingimports and/or subsidizing exports, by borrowing more abroad or lending less toother nations, as well as by reducing the level of its national income.8. a) Nations usually impose restrictions on the free international flow of goods,services, and factors. Differences in language, customs, and laws also hamperthese international flows. In addition, international flows may involve receipts and payments in different currencies, which may change in value in relation to oneanother through time. This is to be contrasted with the interregional flow ofgoods, services, and factors, which face no such restrictions as tariffs and areconducted in terms of the same currency, usually in the same language, and under basically the same set of customs and laws.b) Both international and interregional economic relations involve the overcomingof space or distance. Indeed, they both arise from the problems created bydistance. This distinguishes them from the rest of economics, which abstractsfrom space and treats the economy as a single point in space, in which production, exchange, and consumption take place.9. We can deduce that nations benefit from voluntarily engaging in internationaltrade because if they did not gain or if they lost they could avoid those losses bysimply refusing to trade. Disagreement usually arises regarding the relativedistribution of the gains from specialization in production and trade, but this does not mean that each nation does not gain from trade.10. International trade results in lower prices for consumers but harms domesticproducers of products, which compete with imports. Often those domesticproducers that stand to lose a great deal from imports band together to pressurethe government to restrict imports. Since consumers are many and unorganizedand each individually stands to lose only very little from the import restrictions,governments often give in to the demands of producers and impose some importrestrictions. These topics are discussed in detail in Chapter 9.11. A nation can subsidize exports of the commodity to other nations until it drivesthe competing nation's industry out of business, after which it can raise its priceand benefit from its newly acquired monopoly power.Some economists and politicians in the United States have accused Japan of doing just that (i.e., of engaging in strategic trade and industrial policy at the expense of U.S. industries), but this is a very complex and controversial aspect of tradepolicy and will be examined in detail in Chapter 9.12. a) When the value of the U.S. dollar falls in relation to the currencies of othernations, imports become more expensive for Americans and so they wouldpurchase a smaller quantity of imports.b) When the value of the U.S. dollar falls in relation to the currencies of othernations, U.S. exports become chapter for foreigners and so they would purchase a greater quantity of U.S. exports.Multiple-Choice Questions1.

Chapter 1Introduction⏹Chapter OrganizationWhat Is International Economics About?The Gains from TradeThe Pattern of TradeHow Much Trade?Balance of PaymentsExchange Rate DeterminationInternational Policy CoordinationThe International Capital MarketInternational Economics: Trade and Money⏹Chapter OverviewThe intent of this chapter is to provide both an overview of the subject matter of international economics and to provide a guide to the organization of the text. It is relatively easy for an instructor to motivate the study of international trade and finance. The front pages of newspapers, the covers of magazines, andthe lead reports on television news broadcasts herald the interdependence of the U.S. economy with the rest of the world. This interdependence may also be recognized by students through their purchases of imports of all sorts of goods, their personal observations of the effects of dislocations due to international competition, and their experience through travel abroad.The study of the theory of international economics generates an understanding of many key events that shape our domestic and international environment. In recent history, these events include the causes and consequences of the large current account deficits of the United States; the dramatic appreciation of the dollar during the first half of the 1980s followed by its rapid depreciation in the second half of the 1980s; the Latin American debt crisis of the 1980s and the Mexican crisis in late 1994; and the increased pressures for industry protection against foreign competition broadly voiced in the late 1980s and more vocally espoused in the first half of the 1990s. The financial crisis that began in East Asia in 1997 and spread to many countries around the globe and the Economic and Monetary Union in Europe highlighted the way in which various national economies are linked and how important it is for us to understand these connections. These global linkages have been highlighted yet again with the rapid spread of the financial crisis in the United States to the rest of the world. At the same time, protests at global economic meetings and a rising wave of protectionist rhetoric have highlighted opposition to globalization. The text material will enable students to understand the economic context in which such events occur.© 2012 Pearson Education, Inc. Publishing as Addison-Wesley2 Krugman/Obstfeld/Melitz • International Economics: Theory & Policy, Ninth Edition©2012 Pearson Education, Inc. Publishing as Addison Wesley Chapter 1 of the text presents data demonstrating the growth in trade and the increasing importance of international economics. This chapter also highlights and briefly discusses seven themes which arisethroughout the book. These themes are (1) the gains from trade; (2) the pattern of trade; (3) protectionism; (4) the balance of payments; (5) exchange rate determination; (6) international policy coordination; and (7) the international capital market. Students will recognize that many of the central policy debates occurring today come under the rubric of one of these themes. Indeed, it is often a fruitful heuristic to use current events to illustrate the force of the key themes and arguments which are presented throughout the text.。
