b) In the world market, equilibrium will occur at a price of $2.50, when the quantity supplied and demanded will be 80. At this equilibrium price of $2.50, Alpha will supply 25 units, and Beta will supply 55 units. Alpha will demand 35 units, and Beta will demand 45 units. This implies that Beta will supply more than its demand for steel, while Alpha will supply less. Therefore, Beta will export steel and Alpha will import steel.
