Problem
You are analyzing a tariff for extracting foreign monopoly profit. Will the transfer of profit become greater or less, for a given tariff amount, when the demand curve facing the foreign monopolist becomes more elastic? Will the loss in home consumer surplus become greater or less, for a given tariff amount, when the demand curve becomes more elastic? What can be concluded, if anything, about the relationship between the elasticity of demand and the net welfare gains to the home country from the tariff? Explain.
