Answer:

Q1: Kenya

Q2: tariffs and a quota

Explanation:

Q1:

To answer this question, it is important to know how to interpret the exchange rates on the table. Additionally, keep in mind that we are focussing on US Dollar (USD) in exchange for other countries' currencies; i.e;USD/Pula , USD/Rand , USD/Shilling, and USD/USD. Based on these currency conversions, you'll focus on the last column on the exchange rate table .

<u>Botswana</u>

USD/Pula  = 0.09

This means that, to buy one Pula, you will pay USD0.09

<u>Kenya</u>

USD/Shilling  = 0.01

This means that, to buy one Shilling, you will pay USD0.01

<u>South Africa </u>

USD/Rand  = 0.07

This means that, to buy one Rand, you will pay USD0.07

<u>United States</u>

USD/USD  = 1

USD is just USD so the value remains the same.

Therefore, from the analysis, going to Kenya is the least expensive hence you will receive the MOST local currency.

Q2:

The answer is tariffs and a quota

A tariff by definition is an import tax or custom duties imposed on goods or services brought from one country to be sold in another. The party who pays the import tax is the importer of the good/service. In this case, if U.S rice manufacturers imports rice above above 682,000 metric tons to Japan, they will be responsible for paying a higher import tax to Japan. This is a tariff.

On the other hand, the Japanese restrictions on the quantity of rice imported to its country is an example of a quota. One of the likely reasons why Japan or would impose this is to  offer protection to domestic infant  rice manufacturers from going out of the market since they are still small scale and cannot benefit from economies of scale until they mature. Therefore, a Quota will be the second economic barrier in this question.

photoshop1234 [79]

Answer:
