Answer: False

Explanation:

A tariff is a tax that is imposed by the government of a particular country in order to curtail the number of imported goods brought into the country.

Based on the above scenario, the reduction in consumer surplus is not $500 million but rather $600 million which is the addition of $100 million, $200 million and $300 million.

Therefore the question is false.

Generally, it is saddled with the responsibility of providing both managerial and financial assistance and counseling to small businesses in order to bolster the American economy.

Basically, SBA provides services such as entrepreneurial development, access to funds, advocacy and contracting to small businesses (entrepreneurs) in the United States of America.

In conclusion, the Small Businesses Act of 1953 was the new law the American government enacted for promoting small businesses in the country.
