Answer to Question 1

C

Answer to Question 2

A tariff is a tax on an imported good. Like all taxes, a tariff increases the government's revenue. However, an import quota is quantitative restriction on the amount of a good that can be imported. As such, an import quota has no effect on the government's revenue.
