Consider two hypothetical countries, Aniva and Kartaly. Both countries produce iGadgets, and the price of iGadgets is lower in Aniva than in Kartaly.

Which of the following statements about the effects of the tariff compared to free trade are correct? Check all that apply.

a. In Aniva, consumption decreases and domestic production increases.

b. In Kartaly, consumption decreases and domestic production increases.

c. The tariff doesn't need to increase the price of the imported iGadget above its domestic price in order to reduce the price differential.

d. The tariff always raises the price of imported iGadgets above their domestic price.

e. In Kartaly, some workers at retail and shipping companies that import iGadgets lose their jobs.
