Scenario 9-1 For a small country called Boxland, the equation of the domestic demand curve for cardboard is QS1U1P1DS1S1P0 = 210 − 2P, where QS1U1P1DS1S1P0 represents the domestic quantity of cardboard demanded, in tons, and P represents the price of a ton of cardboard. For Boxland, the equation of the domestic supply curve for cardboard is QS1U1P1SS1S1P0 = -90 + 3P, where QS1U1P1SS1S1P0 represents the domestic quantity of cardboard supplied, in tons, and P again represents the price of a ton of cardboard. -Refer to Scenario 9-1. Suppose the world price of cardboard is $82.5. Then, relative to the no-trade situation, international trade in cardboard
