Solution Steps
Step 1: Find the domestic quantity supplied at the world price
At a world price of $0.50, the domestic supply is 100 units.
Step 2: Find the domestic quantity demanded at the world price
At a price of $0.50, domestic demand is 600 units.
Step 3: Calculate the difference
Since domestic demand (600 units) exceeds domestic supply (100 units) at the world price, Marketopia will import the difference. The difference is 600 - 100 = 500 units.
