Solution:  
Let the amount invested in scheme which yields 9% be x and amount invested in scheme which yields 13% be y.  
x + y = 180000 --equation 1 
0.09x + 0.13y = 18000 --equation 2  
Balancing the equations, multiply equation 1 with 0.09 and equation 2 with 1,  
0.09x + 0.09y = 16200 -equation 3
 0.09x + 0.13y = 18000 --equation4  
Subtracting equation 4 from 3, 
 -0.04y = -1800  
y = 45000 
 Now putting value of y in equation 1, 
 x + 45000 = 180000 
 x = 135000 
 The amount to be invested in scheme which yields 9% = $135,000
 The amount to be invested in scheme which yields 13% = $45,000

Assume an economy is currently engaged in free trade but considering implementing a tariff on its main import, athletic shoes. W
UNO [17]

Answer:

Price - increase

Domestic production- increase

Import- reduces

Producer surplus- increase

Explanation:

A tariff is a form of tax on import or export.

When a tariff is imposed on a good , the price of the good increases.

As a result of the tariff , the amount of the goods imported falls as the imported good is now more expensive. The quantity produced by domestic producers increases as consumers would now start demanding for the domestic good. Tariffs are sometimes enacted to discourage importation and encourage domestic production.

As a result of the price increase, producer surplus increases. The increase in price also increases output. The producer surplus is the difference between the price of a product and the least amount the producer is willing to sell his product.

I hope my answer helps you.
