The following information is for all three questions. Suppose the country of Coventry is joining a customs union (CU). It can buy Product S from the country of Plata or the country of Soyuz. Plata is not in the CU, while Soyuz is in the CU. Before joining the CU, Coventry has a tariff on all imports of Product S. After joining the CU, Coventry does not have a tariff on the Product S imported from other countries in the CU, but maintains its tariff on the Product S imported from countries outside the CU. The tariff, when applicable, is $7. (Use the Basic Tariff Model in this analysis and assume no foreign retaliation on this product.)

2. The price of Product S from Plata is $62 and the price of Product S from Soyuz is $73. Suppose Coventry changes from not being in the CU to being in the CU.

(a) Who is Coventry’s supplier of Product S before joining the CU? After joining the CU?

(b) Is there a trade creation effect in this case?

(c) Is there a trade diversion effect in this case? Why?

(d) What happens to the Coventry Total Surplus for Product S because it joined the CU? Why?

Beats wants to build a new factory to produce its headphones. It will cost $230 million initially to build the factory over the course of 12 months, which will be worthless after 10 years. The factory will be depreciated linearly to $0 over 10 years. Beats already owns the land on which the factory will be built. The land is currently worth $10 million and was purchased for $2 million eight years ago. After completion of the factory at the end of year 1, Beats expects earnings before interest and taxes (EBIT) of $34 million each year for 10 years. The company also has to add inventory (components) worth $13 million just before operation starts at the end of the first year. Beat's marginal tax rate is 21% and its cost of capital is 6%.
