The Equilibrium-Relative Commodity Price
with Trade-Partial Equilibrium Analysis
Figure 4-1:
At a relative price greater than P1, Nation 1’s excess
supply of X (Panel A) gives rise to Nation 1’s
international supply curve of X (S in Panel B).
At a relative price lower than P3, Nation 2’s excess
demand for X (Panel C) gives rise to Nation 2’s
demand for imports of X (D in Panel B).
Only at P2 (Panel B) does quantity of imports
demanded equal quantity of exports supplied.
Thus P2 is equilibrium-relative commodity price
with trade.
