Abstract

A simple model is used to measure the transfer effects resulting from protection in Au stralia. The model is not concerned with the deadweight losses associ ated with protection. The concept of "true" protection is employed to construct a transfer matrix which shows how income is transferred between sectors. Exporters are the sole losers from protection. The c ost to Australian exporters is about 1.5 percent of GDP. Copyright 1986 by The Economic Society of Australia.
