Abstract :
The Investigation of Relationship between Tariffs and Macroeconomic Variables. Abstract A country that wants to be a commercial and economic relation with other countries should be following international principles and regularity in international trade and the pursuit of long-term purposes regardless of short-term purposes. Establishing tariffs is one of the tools of government intervention in the trade that used to conduct of national economic activity and is prevent foreign competition. In this case, the government mechanism is effectiveness in imports and exports through the effect on prices of imported goods. Obviously, the change in price will cause a change in domestic production and consumption. This study was investigated the relationship between tariffs and macroeconomic variables (GDP, inflation rate, foreign trade balance and unemployment) based on data from the years 1357 to 1391 by using VAR model and Granger causality. The results showed that there is cross-correlation between tariffs and economic variables (dual causality). In addition, the relationship between tariffs with inflation, GDP and foreign trade balance is negative, and with unemployment is positive.
