How many steering wheels will the United States import?
II. How much tariff revenue will the U.S. government collect?
III. Suppose that the United States and Mexico become part of NAFTA and there is free trade between the two countries. Now how many steering wheels will the United States import?
IV. Calculate the trade creation gains from free trade in steering wheels with Mexico.
V. Calculate the trade diversion losses from free trade in steering wheels with Mexico.
VI. Does the United States gain or lose as a result of free trade in steering wheels with Mexico?
