Answer to Question 1

Paratariff measures are charges that increase the costs of imports in a manner similar to tariffs. Such measures include: allowing an initial number of products units to enter the country duty-free and charging tariffs to subsequent shipments in excess of this quota.

Answer to Question 2

Pricing decisions are affected by all the external elements in a company's international environment. An international company must react effectively to changes in the competitive environment, in the political and legal environment, and in the economic and financial environment. This appears in the Environment-Related Challenges and Pricing Decisions section (16-2).
