Question 13 • Economics

How do embargoes most negatively affect a domestic market?

Answer
A
by preventing domestic producers from trading needed goods with all countries
B
by encouraging international producers to sell new goods for lower prices than domestic goods
C
by helping international producers fill a market void, decreasing domestic trade
D
by depriving domestic producers of needed goods, restricting their ability to trade

Explanation

An embargo restricts trade with a particular country, so domestic producers may lose access to goods or materials they need from that trading partner. Without those inputs, producers may be less able to make and trade their own goods. Choice C describes this effect; an embargo does not necessarily prevent trade with all countries, as choice A claims.
