From the point of increasing trade liberalization policies worldwide, this study aims to test the effects of the changes in import tariffs in Turkey. For that purpose, we benefit from simultaneous equations based on a computable general equilibrium framework. We construct an updated social accounting matrix for Turkey which is compatible with our model by using different data sources. Our findings obtained from the model suggest that import tariff increase will provide increases in domestic production after each subsequent tariff rate reductions. Furthermore, increasing domestic production associates with improvements in trade deficits and employment. So, tariff-distorted effects of trade policy as such are said to be small in Turkey.

土耳其的进口关税变化和部门生产：可计算的一般均衡（CGE）建模方法

从全球范围内日益增加的贸易自由化政策的角度出发，本研究旨在检验土耳其进口关税变化的影响。为此，我们受益于基于可计算的一般均衡框架的联立方程。我们使用不同的数据源为土耳其构建了一个与我们的模型兼容的更新的社会核算矩阵。我们从模型中获得的发现表明，进口关税的提高将在随后每降低一次关税率之后提供国内生产的增长。此外，增加国内生产有助于改善贸易赤字和就业。因此，在土耳其，这样的扭曲贸易政策的关税效应很小。
