Abstract
Using Mallick (2014) ceiling price results and the price gap approach, this paper derives all the formulae of interest in autarky, free trade, and after an import tariff for a small country. All derived formulae are in terms of three adjustment weights. It also offers comparisons of results of free trade with autarky and after tariff with free trade. Any formula can be applied independently.
