Explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

Area                            Before Trade    After Trade     Change

                                       Value                  Value          Value  

Consumer Surplus ​          $?                          ​$?               ​$?

Producer Surplus    ​         $?                ​          ​$?               ​$?

Total Welfare                   ​$ ?                        ​ ​ $?                 ​$?

Consumer surplus = Total quantity demanded at consumer's price minus equilibrium quantity * equilibrium price

Producer surplus = Total quantity supplied at supplier's price minus equilibrium quantity * equilibrium price

Change value at consumer surplus = $5,000 ($9,000 - $4,000)

Change value at producer surplus = $-3,000 ($1,000 - $4,000)

Total welfare before trade = $8,000 ($4,000 + $4,000)

Total welfare after trade = $10,000 ($9,000 + $1,000)

The net gain from free international trade is the difference between the total welfare value after trade and before trade = $2,000 ($10,000 - $8,000)
