What tariff? The most logical answer, assuming the tariff you speak of is one against foreign sellers, is that the business owners in the north dont have to pay it while their competitors do. Therefore they can sell their wares at cheaper prices and still get the same profit. Thus making them a better, more competitive company.

Why did the south support the tariff of 1816 but not the tariff of 1820?
The South was prosperous in 1816 and the manufacturers who needed the tariff for support were hurting. In 1820, the South was hurting and the manufacturers were already getting rich. The South was the one paying most of the bill on the tariff. Also, the threat from English in Louisiana and Florida was diminished after the 1812 war was long over and many treaties were signed. Relations between the South and England greatly strengthened from 1816 to 1860, while the North wanted tariffs. The south relied on England to buy its slave plantation agriculture.
