Suppose Rousonia imposes a tariff on products from the Kingdom of beJeweled States (KBS). At the same time, KBS experiences economic growth. Using an offer curve framework, show the effects on Rousonia’s terms of trade and volume of trade.
When Rousonia imposes a tariff on products from KBS and KBS experience a economic growth. then the product is an inelastic product, which has no impact on the increase in price. In this scenario, the terms of trade for the home country will improve due to the anti-clockwise movement. it shows that the KBS was earning excess profit before tax, even there is a tax that could not change the demand for the foreign product. so there is no much effect of tax to the purchase where the import increase from Y to Y' and supply/export is less.
