Toddsterpatriot, if the USA adopted the Import Certificate policy, the exporters of USA goods may request (all or any of their particular export shipments be to federally assessed and they will pay the assessment fees.
The total federal assessment fees paid by those exporters for their individual export shipments include an additional fee if they accept the federal assessment amount and the IC (with face-amount equal to that amount) that will be issued to them. If they do not agree, no IC will be issued for that particular export shipment.
Those and any additional expenses due to their handling the IC certificates are the exporters' total costs for acquiring the ICs.
ICs are transferable. The global market values of the ICs are market determined and are passed on within the prices to USA purchases of imported goods. Those markets rather than government determined additions to prices of ICs are not due to the IC policy itself.
Foreign purchasers of USA's exported goods can expect or negotiate reduced prices based upon the differences between global markets' IC prices and exporters' costs for acquiring those ICs. It is the global market prices of ICs rather than the price subsidy of USA exports, that account for the entire increased prices to USA purchasers due to IC policy.
What's effectively a price subsidy of USA's exports, does not cause increased prices to USA purchasers.
Respectfully, Supposn
