A: 10 products at 12% = average of 12%
B: 10 products at 12% and 5 products at 6% = average of 10%

So if one imported product had a ten percent tariff, then eight years later one imported product had a ten percent tariff and one thousand additional imported products had a nine percent tariff, it would be your contention that tariffs had fallen?

That's fascinating.

If you only imported one product at the beginning and 1001 products at the end, yes.

Do you feel that in your example tariffs had risen?
