Susan works in a factory that makes televisions. The country in which she works just entered into a free trade agreement with several other countries. While Susan is concerned about increased competition from the countries that can now export their goods to her country tariff free, she is excited that her company is implementing new procedures at work to be more efficient. Within six months, her company is producing better televisions than before. Scenario 2 Claudia works in a factory that makes computers. Her country just imposed tariffs on all computers coming into the country. While Claudia is happy that the tariff reduces the chances of losing her job, she has noticed that the quality of the computers made at her factory has fallen. People are late to work, machines that break don’t get fixed, and no one seems to be talking about any new ideas. What effect do tariffs have on Susan’s and Claudia’s workplaces?

The owner of a one-acre parcel of land with a small house on it rented the property to a professor of a nearby college at a monthly rental of $500. several years later, after the professor got tenure, the parties orally agreed that the professor would purchase the property from the owner for the sum of $60,000, payable at the rate of $500 a month for 10 years. they agreed that the owner would give the professor a deed to the property after five years had passed and $30,000 had been paid toward the purchase price, and that the professor would execute a note secured by a mortgage for the balance. the professor continued in possession of the property and made all monthly payments in a timely fashion. when he had paid $30,000, he tendered a proper note and mortgage to the property owner and demanded that she deliver the deed as agreed. the owner refused because valuable minerals had been discovered on adjacent parcels in recent months, causing the value of this parcel of land to increase to 10 times its former value. the professor brought suit against the property owner for specific performance. if the court rules in favor of the property owner, what is the likely reason?
