Abstract
This study
focuses on the effects of tariff reduction by tariff reduction methods for 10
major countries. Six different tariff reduction methods have been applied to
measure the tariff reduction rates. Tariff reduction rates from the method
applied in the Uruguay Round are compared with outcomes from the other methods.
A Swiss formula with a ceiling tariff rate 25% gives rise to the deepest cut.
However, this formula brings shallow cut of tariffs compared with the Uruguay
Round formula for some countries including the U.S., Australia and Chile. A
Swiss formula with a ceiling tariff rate of 100% makes eight out of ten
countries better off. A Swiss formula will be disastrous only for Korea and
Japan. Therefore, possibility is high to accept formula tariff cut in DDA
agriculture negotiations.
