Abstract

Analyses whether trade policies such as import tariffs and export taxes have unambiguous effects on the trade balance. Shows that a temporary tariff raises the real interest rate and thereby reduces spending which, in turn, improves the trade balance. Also shows that a temporary export tax affects the real interest rate in the opposite direction and worsens the trade balance.-from Authors
