3. When the government imposes a tariff, the redistribution effect is the area that was consumer surplus with free international trade that becomes producer surplus when the price paid by consumers is equal to the world price plus the tariff. Based on Figure 1, the redistribution effect due to the per unit tariff of $2.50 on calculators in Mexico is represented by the area

A) a1 + a2 + a3 + b1 + b2

B) c1

C) c3

D) b1 + b2 + c2

4. The deadweight loss from a tariff is the surplus that would have been in existance at equilibrium with free international trade but that no one gets when there is a tariff in place. According to Figure 1, the deadweight cost of the tariff totals:

A) a1 + a4

B) b1 + b2

C) c1 + c2 + c3 + c4

D) c4

5. The imposition of tariffs on imports results in deadweight welfare losses for the home economy. These losses consist of the:

A) Protective effect plus consumption effect

B) Redistribution effect plus revenue effect

C) Revenue effect plus protective effect

D) Consumption effect plus redistribution effect
