Answer to Question 1

It is likely that tariff cuts have diminishing marginal returns, so that each successive round of cuts leads to a smaller gain than the cuts before, and thus it is reasonable to guess that future cuts are not likely to have a large impact on world trade and income. While it is difficult to measure the gains from tariff reduction precisely, the value of the Doha Round of trade negotiations were estimated to be in the range of 0.1 percent to 0.5 percent of world GDP. This is certainly far smaller than the gains that relatively closed economies experienced when they opened their markets to trade.

Answer to Question 2

D
