In the case of wine, one plausible model is a competitive or monopolistic competitive model and a highly elastic export demand function, Warrenet al.(2005)

    • In the more realistic world trade model context, strictly speaking, the supply curve facing Australian consumers in both, is the excess supply curve equal to the Australian supply-less exports and plus imports rather than the Australian supply curve. Free trade makes this excess supply curve more elastic than the Australian supply curve. This move to greater reality does not affect the reasoning and direction of effects of the results reported
