| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
This research project has conducted theoretical analysis of the effects of tariff reduction and accompanied two types of domestic consumption tax reforms: welfare-maximizing and revenue-maximizing consumption tax reforms. We could obtain novel results concerning the properties of the two reforms. We also set up a vertical trading model where domestic downstream oligopolists import an intermediate goods and the government imposes tariffs and profit tax on the domestic firms, and studied the welfare effects of the policy package of tariff reduction and profit tax reforms. In addition to above research, we studied the partner choice and technology transfer behavior of a foreign firm and response of local firms based on a game theoretical approach. We obtained some novel and very interesting results.
