This statistic provides an estimate of the projected number of jobs created or lost as a result of the Trump Administration's trade tariffs on steel and aluminum in 2018, by state. Across the United States, the tariffs are predicted to create ******* jobs in the steel and aluminum industries. However, the rising costs of production and trade tariff retaliation by major trading partners suggest that more than ******* jobs will be lost overall when other sectors are taken into account.

During a February online survey among buy-side advertising decision-makers handling annual ad budgets of at least 250 thousand U.S. dollars in the United States, approximately 40 percent of the participants said they expected the retail and e-commerce industry to cut its ad spending that year due to tariffs. The consumer electronics segment and the media and entertainment sector followed, mentioned by 33 and 28 percent of the respondents, respectively.

NREL has assembled a list of U.S. retail electricity tariffs and their associated demand charge rates for the Commercial and Industrial sectors. The data was obtained from the Utility Rate Database. Keep the following information in mind when interpreting the data: (1) These data were interpreted and transcribed manually from utility tariff sheets, which are often complex. It is a certainty that these data contain errors, and therefore should only be used as a reference. Actual utility tariff sheets should be consulted if an action requires this type of data. (2) These data only contains tariffs that were entered into the Utility Rate Database. Since not all tariffs are designed in a format that can be entered into the Database, this list is incomplete - it does not contain all tariffs in the United States. (3) These data may have changed since this list was developed (4) Many of the underlying tariffs have additional restrictions or requirements that are not represented here. For example, they may only be available to the agricultural sector or closed to new customers. (5) If there are multiple demand charge elements in a given tariff, the maximum demand charge is the sum of each of the elements at any point in time. Where tiers were present, the highest rate tier was assumed. The value is a maximum for the year, and may be significantly different from demand charge rates at other times in the year.

US Tariff Impact on Market

The livestock farming technology market is vulnerable to changes in US tariffs, particularly on equipment imported from countries such as China and other international suppliers. US tariffs could lead to an increase in production costs, raising prices for essential farming technologies like IoT sensors, automated feeding systems, and milking robotics.

These higher prices may hinder adoption, especially among smaller or rural farms that are already constrained by financial limitations. It is estimated that tariffs could lead to an increase in costs by up to 25% for certain imported technologies.

For farmers, this could result in delayed investments or a shift towards less sophisticated, lower-cost alternatives, potentially impacting the overall growth of the market in the US. Companies within the US may also need to source domestically or from other countries not impacted by tariffs, which could disrupt existing supply chains.

• Economic Impact: Increased tariffs will lead to higher costs for both manufacturers and farmers, limiting the affordability of livestock farming technology, particularly for small-scale operations.
• Geographical Impact: US farms, especially in rural areas, will be more affected by price hikes due to reliance on international suppliers. This could result in slower adoption rates in these regions.
• Business Impact: Manufacturers and tech companies will need to re-evaluate their supply chains and may be forced to pass the cost increases to farmers, negatively affecting sales and profitability.

Why do some declining industries receive more compensation through protectionist policies than others, even without actively engaging in lobbying? How does the political representation of industries affect their chances for protectionist relief? This paper argues that political parties seek to optimize electoral returns through the strategic allocation of distributive benefits generated by trade barriers. The inter-industry structure of protection is thus explained by the interaction between industries’ trade preferences and political characteristics. Using data on protection and subnational employment for U.S. industries and district-level election outcomes in the 1990s, this paper finds that the concentration of industries in competitive constituencies not only increases their chances of receiving higher tariffs, but also magnifies the marginal effect of comparative disadvantage on tariff and nontariff protection.

In 2024, Chinese exports of trade goods to the United States amounted to about 438.95 billion U.S. dollars; a significant increase from 1985 levels, when imports from China amounted to about 3.86 billion U.S. dollars. U.S. exports to China Compared to U.S. imports from China, the value of U.S. exports to China in 2020 amounted to 427.23billion U.S. dollars. China is the United States’ largest trading partner, while China was the United States third largest goods export market. Some of the leading exports to China in the agricultural sector included soybeans, cotton, and pork products. Texas was the leading state that exported to China in 2020 based on total value of goods exports, at 16.9 billion U.S. dollars. U.S. - China trade war The trade war between the United States and China is an economic conflict between two of the world’s largest national economies. It started in 2018 when U.S. President Donald Trump started putting tariffs and trade barriers on China, with the intent to get China to conform to Trump’s wishes. President Trump claimed that China has unfair trade businesses. As a result of this trade war, it has caused a lot of tension between the U.S. and China. Nearly half of American companies impacted by the U.S.-China trade tariffs said that the trade war increased their cost of manufacturing. The healthcare product industry has suffered the most from the trade war in regards to reduced profits.

Social Impact was contracted by MCC to develop and conduct an evaluation of the Malawi Compact. Specifically, SI has been tasked to “assess the program design and implementation to develop the most rigorous evaluation design feasible, whether it is a performance or impact evaluation, and identify the most appropriate evaluation methodology feasible given the context.” Efforts to identify a research design that would allow for a rigorously defined counterfactual were unsuccessful, and as a result this design document outlines plans for a rigorous performance evaluation that will aim to measure key outcome indicators early on in the Compact, midway through, and at the end of the Compact, as well as track changes over time. This evaluation is designed to address the core questions of the evaluation (Table 1) Since the proposed design is a performance evaluation, it is important to note that it may not be possible to state with confidence how the power sector in Malawi has changed (or not changed) as a result of the Compact, as it will not be possible to control for other potential causes of change. In some cases, however, it may be feasible to identify and potentially rule out alternative explanations. The inability to define a counterfactual requires a reformulation of some of the initial evaluation questions originally proposed by MCC, including some core questions included in the SI-MCC contract. In addition, the Evaluation Assessment Report revealed that both SI and MCC had substantial concerns with regard to the original research questions proposed in Social Impact's contract. This is natural given the way that interventions change over time, and that the proposed questions should be feasible to answer based on the data that can be collected as part of the evaluation. Based on SI's comprehensive desk review, information gathered during the scoping trip, and frequent communication with MCC and MCA-M, the SI evaluation team has developed research questions and research approaches for the PSRP and the IDP project components, as proposed in Tables 2 and 3, respectively. The original questions and the suggested modifications for each question are presented in the Appendix.

Research Questions Through a rigorous performance evaluation, the evaluation design aims to answer the following core evaluation questions and several complementary research questions:

1. What declines in poverty, increases in economic growth, reductions in the electricity related cost of doing business, increases in access to electricity, and increases in value added production are observed over the life of the Compact?
2. What were the results of the interventions - intended and unintended, positive or negative?
3. Are there differences in outcomes of interest by gender, age and income? Sex and income disaggregated information for businesses and households will be pursued to the extent possible.
4. What are the lessons learned and are they applicable to other similar projects?
5. What is the likelihood that the results of the Project will be sustained over time?
6. At the household level, the evaluations shall focus on the following program/project/activities impacts on household and individuals: income; expenditures, consumption and access to energy; individual time devoted to leisure and productive activities.
7. At the enterprise level, the evaluation shall focus on the potential impact of the program/project/activities on: business profitability and productivity; value added production and investment; employment and wage changes; energy consumption and sources of energy used; business losses.
8. At the regulatory, institutional and policy level, the evaluation shall explore the potential impacts of the program/project/activities on: utility operating costs and losses; financial sustainability; private investment, particularly in generation; expansion of electricity access for customers, particularly the poor.

To answer these questions, the PSRP evaluation design will leverage diverse research methodologies with different timelines for data collection. The evaluation design can be broken into:

· PSRP evaluation: The PSRP design incorporates five data collection activities, including: (1) quantitative indicators from the M&E Plan and Malawi Energy Regulatory Authority (MERA) key performance indicators, (2) workflow analyses with relevant units, such as billing and procurement, (3) a series of largely qualitative research activities (with some mini-surveys included), (4) a proposed survey of Electricity Supply Corporation of Malawi (ESCOM) employees, and (5) the PSRP process evaluation, focused on implementation and achievement of implementation milestones and outputs will be folded into the PSRP data collection activities. · Enterprise survey: A panel survey of businesses will be used to evaluate both the PSRP and the IDP.

PSRP Social Impact proposes five data collection activities for the PSRP evaluation: (1) quantitative indicators from the M&E Plan and MERA key performance indicators, (2) workflow analyses with relevant units, (3) largely qualitative research activities (with some mini-surveys included), (4) a survey of current ESCOM employees, and (5) process evaluation. These activities will occur in three phases: at baseline (to be conducted as soon as possible), at midline, and at the end of the Compact. The evaluation will seek to identify changes over time and then consider the extent to which any observed improvements can be attributed to Compact activities.

The sporting goods manufacturing industry has benefitted from rising health consciousness over the past decade, which spurred an uptick in sports participation, driving demand. However, inflationary pressures plagued the industry in the aftermath of the COVID-19 outbreak, resulting in people cutting discretionary spending. Revenue is expected to grow at a compound annual rate of 2.6% over the five years through 2025 to €10.8 billion, including an estimated jump of 1.8% in 2025. Profit is also expected to edge upwards to 12.2% in 2025 as higher interest rates cool inflation and ease input cost pressures. Following the COVID-19 outbreak, pent-up demand and supply chain disruptions incited inflationary pressures, ratcheting up living costs. This resulted in many people’s real household disposable income’s plummeting, forcing them to cut discretionary spending on goods like sporting equipment. Despite central banks across Europe raising interest rates to curb rising prices, inflation persisted in the two years through 2023, hurting demand. However, rising sport participation and health consciousness have supported revenue in recent years, driven by effective government initiatives. This includes the Erasmus+ Sport programme, which supports grassroots sports projects across Europe. According to a 2022 survey from the European Commission, Finland tops the list of countries most likely to exercise at least once a week, at 71% of respondents. Import competition has impacted the industry with consumers opting for cheaper alternatives from low-cost production countries amid the cost-of-living crisis. This forced manufacturers to focus their efforts on premium, performance-focused gear, maintaining revenue growth. Revenue is forecast to swell at a compound annual rate of 5.8% over the five years through 2030 to €14.3 billion. Sporting goods manufacturing will welcome declining costs as inflationary pressures subside in the short term. However, uncertainty surrounding Trump’s tariffs policies will hamper GDP growth due to businesses delaying investment projects which would have potentially aided demand for sports goods manufacturers. This will force manufacturers to diversify into faster-growing or tariff-free markets like Asia. Sport participation will continue to rise, supported by robust funding towards promoting exercise as governments seek to slow down rising obesity across Europe. Yet, countries like France facing budget pressures have slashed funding aimed at promoting sports, hindering demand for sports goods manufacturers.

Currently, China manufactures about ** percent of intermediate products traded in the global supply chain and Chinese intermediate products represent a critical element of the global value chain of the metal and metal products sector. For this reason, the disruption caused by COVID-19 in China alone is expected to reverberate on the economy of many other countries worldwide. In the European Union, the metal industry is expected to lose over *********** U.S. dollars from a *** percent reduction in China exports of intermediate inputs.

China's output of metal products As a fast-growing economy, China is one of the major producers of various metals necessary for industrial production. The country produces metals not only to meet the internal demand, but also to export overseas. As of 2017, China’s raw steel production was over *** million metric tons. Its export volume of semi-finished and finished steel products amounted to over ** million metric tons in 2018. In the same year, rolled aluminum exports from China were worth over ** billion U.S. dollars, up from *** billion U.S. dollars in 2009. China’s share of fabricated metal product exports between 2013 and 2017 accounted for ** percent of the global market.

International trade of metals In 2018, China was the largest steel exporter, with a trade surplus of **** million metric tons. On the other hand, Europe and North America were major importers of steel. That year, the trade deficit of North American steel imports and exports amounted to **** million metric tons. During that same year, Japan was the second-largest steel exporter, with approximately ** million metric tons of steel exported to countries across the globe. Despite the large trade flows of metal products across countries, some countries impose various trade restrictions to favor local producers of metals. Currently, the trade war between the U.S. and China is one of the major events affecting global trade. As of February 2020, the estimated levy from tariffs imposed on U.S. steel and aluminum imports to China amounted to about *********** U.S. dollars.

ABSTRACT This paper contributes by encouraging discussions about the public policy of setting tariffs for public services based on the value of the investment made by the providers of these services. The purpose of this study was, in an unprecedented way and by combining theories of equity valuation and finance, to identify the asset valuation method that can lead to a fair value and balance between an affordable price for the consumer and an adequate return on investment for the concessionaires. The value assigned to these assets affects the tariff in two ways: (i) via depreciation/amortization, which affects the cost of service; (ii) via the return on investment, which is the portion that corresponds to the investor’s profit. We analyzed the Brazilian electricity sector, in which the rates set by the Brazilian Electricity Regulatory Agency (ANEEL) currently use the new replacement value (NRV) approach. We carried out empirical tests using data available on the ANEEL website from the second cycle periodic tariff review and information obtained in financial statements from 1995 onwards. The analysis included the NVR and restated historical cost (RHC) methods, the latter being updated by the extended consumer price index (IPCA). After the descriptive and statistical analyses, we used the test of means to verify the differences between the variables in terms of NRV vs. RHC. The first conclusion was the absence of a significant difference between the NRV and RHC methods; that is, on average, the replacement price showed no significant difference to what would be the pure and simple restatement of assets. But this was found to hide something relevant, the fact that this average is derived from two main groups: that of the consumers who are paying more for energy services than they should, which constitutes a visible benefit to investors and loss for these consumers, and that of the consumers who are paying less than they should, which benefits them but harms investors.

This study will analyse the potential economic impact of a lack of the Trade Continuity Agreement between Canada and the United Kingdom when the United Kingdom would no longer be a legal party to Canada-EU treaties, including CETA as of January 1, 2021. In the absence of a transitional agreement or a trade agreement between Canada and the United Kingdom, bilateral trade between the two countries would be governed by WTO rules alone, and the goods trade between Canada and the United Kingdom would be subject to WTO most-favoured nation (MFN) duties. Neither Canada nor the United Kingdom would continue to benefit from the preferential market access currently provided for under CETA. In May 2020, the United Kingdom announced the applied MFN tariff schedule referred to as the UK Global Tariff (UKGT), which would take effect after the post-Brexit transition period. The United Kingdom’s bound tariff rates—the highest tariffs that the United Kingdom could apply—have not yet been certified at the WTO. The proposed bound tariffs are almost identical to the EU’s Common External Tariffs (CET). The analysis that follows explores the economic implications of the two scenarios where Canada-U.K. trade reverts to MFN conditions: the U.K. applied tariffs (UKGT) and the U.K. bound tariffs (EU CET). The benefits from increased certainty for the services sectors under CETA would also be removed.
