Suppose that the free-trade price of a ton of steel is €500. (note: € is the symbol for the euro, a common currency used in 19 european countries, including finland.) finland, a small country, imposes a €60 per-ton specific tariff on imported steel. with the tariff, finland produces 300,000 tons of steel and consumes 600,000 tons of steel. suppose that the €60-per-ton tariff caused finnish production of steel to increase by 100,000 tons and finnish consumption of steel to fall by 100,000 tons. what is the value of finland's welfare loss due to the tariff?
