A small country has a comparative advantage in the production of pencils. The government establishes an export subsidy for pencils to promote economic growth. Which of the following will be the most likely result of this policy?选项:
A.The increase in the domestic producer surplus will exceed the sum of the subsidy and the decrease in the domestic consumer surplus. B.As new domestic producers enter the pencils market, supply will increase and domestic prices will decline. C.Although domestic producers will receive a net benefit, the policy will give rise to inefficiencies that cause a deadweight loss to the national welfare.解释:
Export subsidies interfere with the functioning of the free market and result in a deadweight loss to society. The deadweight loss arises on the producer side because the higher subsidized price causes inefficient producers to remain in the market. On the consumer side, the higher price causes those that would have purchased at the lower price to be shut out of the market.
中文解析:
出口补贴干扰了自由市场的运作,给社会造成了无谓的损失。无谓损失出现在生产者一方,因为较高的补贴价格导致效率低下的生产者留在市场上。在消费者方面,较高的价格导致那些本来会以较低价格购买的人被市场拒之门外。
A为什么错误?
