Definition Variable listed in column information. Initial average statistics for the first 5 scenarios. Initial average statistics for the second 5 scenarios given for checking purposes - they should be the same as for the first 5. Statistics for Swiss formula, with maximum possible final tariff of 8 per cent. Statistics for Swiss formula, with maximum possible final tariff of 16 per cent. Girard formula with a parameter of 1 Girard formula with a parameter of 2 Girard formula with a parameter of 1; with tariffs eliminated in the following sectors: electronics and electrical goods; fish and fish products; footwear, leather goods; motor vehicle parts and components; stones, gems and precious metals; and textiles and clothing. Girard formula with a parameter of 1, with unbound rates estimated at twice the MFN rate. Girard formula with a parameter of 1; ceiling at 25 and floor at 16 imposed for developing countries. Chinese formula with maximum tariff equal to the average base tariff Chinese formula with maximum tariff equal to 3 times the average base tariff Combined Chinese formula with maximum tariff equal to the average base tariff for industrialised economies, and maximum tariff equal to 3 times the average base tariff for developing economies and LDCs. Number of HS6 line items in the whole sample of Australian exports for the first 5 scenarios. Number of HS6 line items in the whole sample of Australian exports for the second 5 scenarios. This number is used for checking purposes, and should be the same as for the Allitem1 variable. Definition Number of HS6 Items. Average of maximum bound tariff rates - the maximum bound rate for all importing countries within a particular HS6 category, is averaged across all HS6 codes. This calculation uses the Girard treatment of missing bound rates, where unbound rates are estimated as being equal to twice the MFN rate.

Average of average bound tariff rates - the average bound rate for all importing countries within a particular HS6 category, is averaged across all HS6 codes. This calculation uses the Girard treatment of missing bound rates, where unbound rates are estimated as being equal to twice the MFN rate. Average of maximum bound tariff rates - the maximum bound rate for all importing countries within a particular HS6 category, is averaged across all HS6 codes. Unbound rates are estimated as being equal to the MFN rate. Average of average bound tariff rates - the average bound rate for all importing countries within a particular HS6 category, is averaged across all HS6 codes. Unbound rates are estimated as being equal to the MFN rate. Average applied tariff rates for different formulas - the average applied rate for all importing countries within a particular HS6 category is averaged across all HS6 codes. The average (across all HS6 codes) of the minimum percentage change of bound rates (within an HS6 category) - the percentage change from initial to final bound rates is calculated for each country within an HS6 code, and then the least negative of these percentage changes for each HS6 code are then averaged across all HS6 codes. This variable shows the smallest reduction in bound rates. Average percentage changes of bound tariff rates - the percentage change from initial to final bound rates is calculated for each country within an HS6 code, and averaged for that HS6 code. These averages are then averaged across all HS6 codes. This variable shows the average reduction in bound rates. Average percentage changes of applied tariff rates - the percentage change from initial to final bound rates is calculated for each country within an HS6 code, and averaged for that HS6 code. These averages are then averaged across all HS6 codes. Average percentage changes in the power of applied tariff rates - calculated by taking the average of percentage changes for each country within an HS6 code, and then averaging across all HS6 codes. The percentage change in the power of the applied tariff can be interpreted as the percentage change in the duty-paid price.
