中等ECON-INTA-012
An import quota that is not auctioned, compared with a tariff that cuts imports by the same amount:
A. Must raise the same government revenue
B. Can create quota rent for licence holders instead of tariff revenue for the government✓ 答案
C. Shifts the domestic demand curve right
D. Removes the opportunity cost of domestic production
解說
Both policies can raise the domestic price and cut imports. A quota's price gap is rent for licence holders unless the government sells the licences. It does not shift demand or erase opportunity cost.
