What effect do tariffs have on consumers?
A tariff raises the price of an imported good above the world price of that good by the amount of the tariff. Domestic suppliers are then able to raise the price of their good to the price of the imported good. The rise in price causes some buyers to exit the market, and by reducing the domestic quantity demanded the consumer surplus decreases, creating a deadweight loss.
What happens to the deadweight loss and tax revenue when a tax is increased?
The deadweight loss of a tax rises more than proportionally as the tax rises. Tax revenue, however, may increase initially as a tax rises, but as the tax rises further, revenue eventually declines. For example; if you sell a product with a $1.00 tax, you have less tax revenue than if you sold twenty of the product with a .10 cent tax. When you increase a tax, the revenue goes down because the product will not sell at that higher price.
