Stupidest formula I've ever seen - Trump Tariff Explained (And Americans are hopeless in mathematics)

Trump Tariff Formula

Δ = Delta, represents change in math.

τi = Tau, used to represent tariff in this instance, with i being import rate.

xi = Defined as total exports to country from U.S.

mi - = Defined as total imports from country to U.S.

ε = Epsilon, used to represent price elasticity of import demand. The USTR set this at 4.

φ = Phi, used to represent the elasticity of import prices with respect to tariffs. The USTR set this at 0.25.

New tariff rate = (Export - Import) ÷ (4 × 0.25 × Import)

　　              = (Export - Import) ÷ Import

∴　ΔTrump tariff rate = (Export - Import) ÷ Import

Δ = デルタ、数学において変化を表す記号

τi = タウ、ここでは関税を表し、iは輸入税率を示す

xi = アメリカから特定の国への総輸出量

mi = 特定の国からアメリカへの総輸入量

ε = エプシロン、輸入需要の価格弾力性を表す記号で、USTR（米国通商代表部）は4とした

φ = ファイ、関税に対する輸入価格の弾力性を表す記号で、USTRはこれを0.25とした

なので、

新しい関税率　＝　（輸出　－　輸入）　÷　（４　×　０．２５　×　輸入）

　　　　　　　＝　（輸出　ー　輸入）　÷　輸入

Δトランプ関税率　＝　（輸出　ー　輸入）　÷　輸入

We knew American skillsets in math were awful, but it was beyond our imagination.

Not just the White House, but also the broadcaster Mr. Barnett, and of course the economists, are all wrong. With that formula, it should be negative. (As the denominator is positive and the numerator is negative.) In other words, according to this formula, instead of imposing tariffs, the U.S. government would have to pay money to importers. The math skills of Americans are really hopeless.

ホワイトハウスだけでなく、キャスターのバネットさんも、もちろん経済学者も、間違ってる・・・その公式なら、マイナスになるはずですよ・・・（分母が＋、分子が－）ですからね

つまり、この公式によるならば、関税をかけるどころか、アメリカ政府が輸入業者にお金を払わなければいけない・・・！
