The nation of Textilia does not allow imports of clothing. In its equilibrium without trade, a T-shirt costs $20, and the equilibrium quantity is 3 million T-shirts. After reading Adam Smith’s The Wealth of Nations while on vacation, the president decides to open the Textilian market to international trade. The market prices of a T-shirt falls to the world price of $16. The number of T-shirts consumed in Textilia rises to 4 million, while the number of T-shirts produced declines to 1 million. Illustrate the situation just described in a graph. Your graph should show all the numbers. Calculate the change in consumer surplus, producer surplus, and total surplus that results from opening trade. (Hint: Recall that the area of a triangle is ½ x base x height.)
