In economics, deadweight loss is the loss of societal economic welfare due to production/consumption of a good at a quantity where marginal benefit (to society) does not equal marginal cost (to society) – in other words, there are either goods being produced despite the cost of doing so being larger than the benefit, or additional goods are not being produced despite the fact that the ...
An export subsidy reduces the price paid by foreign importers, which means domestic consumers pay more than foreign consumers. The World Trade Organization (WTO) prohibits most subsidies directly linked to the volume of exports, except for LDCs. [1] Incentives are given by the government of a country to exporters to encourage export of goods.

Quotas also create deadweight loss. When a production quota has been added, there is a loss in consumer surplus and creation of deadweight loss. [ 3 ] This triangle is also known as the " Harberger Triangle ".

Any addition to the price of consumption goods or an increase in the income tax extends the deadweight loss further.
