Answer to Question 1

A

Answer to Question 2

Today, U.S. tariffs are low compared to their historical levels. The average U.S. tariff was highest in the early 1930s when the Smoot-Hawley tariff was passed. The average tariff at that time was about 20 percent. Since then there has been a general downward trend so that today the average tariff is less than 5 percent. The downward trend was fairly rapid until 1950 and has slowed since then.
