www.boundless.com/economicsExport is defined as the act of shipping goods and services out of the port of a country.Legal restrictions and trade barriers are in place internationally to control trade, whether goods are being exported or imported.When legal restrictions and trade barriers are lessened or lifted the producer surplus increases and so does the amount of the goods and services that are exported from the country.Exporting allows a country's producers to gain ownership advantages and develop low-cost and differentiated products.Due to an extra layer in the chain of distribution which squeezes the margins, exporters may have to offer lower prices to the importers than to domestic wholesalers in order to move their product and generate business.Exports: The Economic Impacts of Selling Goods to Other Countries

International Trade > Gains from Trade

Imports are defined as purchases of good or services by a domestic economy from a foreign economy.Protectionism is the economic policy of restraining trade between countries through tariffs on imported goods, restrictive quotas, and government regulations.In most countries, international trade and importing goods represents a significant share of the gross domestic product (GDP).International trade is generally more expensive than domestic trade due to additionally imposed costs, taxes, and tariffs.On a business level, companies take part in direct-imports; a major retailer imports goods from an overseas manufacturer in order to save money.Imports: The Economics Impacts of Buying Goods from Other Countries

International Trade > Gains from Trade

Free trade eliminates export tariffs, import quotas, and export quotas; all of which cause more losses than benefits for a country.With free trade in place the producers in exporting countries and the consumers in importing countries all benefit.One of the main disadvantages is the selective application of free trade.Economic inefficiency can be created through trade diversion.Trade restricts displaces workers, makes overcoming unemployment challenging, increases economic inequality, and can lower wages.When free trade is applied to only the high cost producer it can lead to trade diversion and a net economic loss.Another disadvantage is that by increasing returns to scale, can cause certain industries to settle in an geographically area where there is not comparative advantage.Costs of Trade

TariffsThis image shows what happens to societal welfare when free trade is not enacted.Tariffs cause the consumer surplus (green area) to decrease, while the producer surplus (yellow area) and government tax revenue (blue area) increase.The amount of societal loss (pink area) is larger than any benefits experienced by the producers and government.Free trade does not have tariffs and results in net gain for society.
