For each hypothetical scenario, indicate whether the tariff described is more likely a protective tariff or a revenue tariff.
LenaWriter [7]

Answer:

a. In response to concerns from business leaders, a legislator has designed a new tariff on raw materials used by many manufacturing firms. The legislator felt the new tariff was necessary based on input from the private sector that new discoveries of natural resources abroad would threaten to put domestic producers of raw materials out of business. To meet this goal, this tariff will charge $1,500 on every crate of the imported goods plus an additional 6% of the total value of the imported goods.

  • protective tariff since it is designed to protect domestic industries from competition of out of state producers. It is designed to increase the price of imported goods.  

b. In an effort to balance next year's budget, a senator has proposed a new tariff. She proposed the new tariff with a goal of raising a total of $100 million, To meet this goal, this tariff will charge $2,000 on every ton that is imported.

  • revenue tariff since its main purpose is to increase government revenue, not to protect domestic industries.
