SUMMARY BY SCHEDULES OF AD VALOREM RATES OF DUTY FOR ALL ITEMS ON THE DUTIABLE LIST IN THE TARIFF ACT
OF 1922 AND FOR ALL ITEMS ON THE DUTIABLE LIST IN THE TARIFF ACT OF 1930

The summary given on the previous page covers all items on the dutiable list in either the tariff act of 1922 or the tariff act of 1930. Therefore,
there are some free list items included in the calculations for each act because such items are dutiable in the other act. As a result of this inclusion
of some free list items in both calculations the ad valorem equivalent rates of duty for each act as a whole and for particular schedules affected are
lower than they would be if the calculations were limited to the dutiable list of each act.
In the summary table below there is presented for comparative purposes a tabulation by schedules of equivalent ad valorem rates of duty for the
dutiable list of each act calculated independently of the other act. The figures for the act of 1922 are therefore the same, with possible minor changes,
as those to be found in “Foreign Commerce and Navigation of the United States,” for the calendar year 1928. The figures for the tariff act of 1930
are the rates of duty for all dutiable items in that act applied to the import statistics of 1928, with the exception of the value of certain items, summarized
 in the table, to which the rates in the act of 1930 could not be applied.
Tt will be observed that whereas the ad valorem equivalent rate for the tariff act of 1922 given in the previous summary upon the basis of comparable
 items in the two bills is 33.22 per cent, the ad valorem equivalent upon the basis of actual imports and duties collected in 1928 was 38.48 per
cent. The act of 1930 upon the basis of comparable items shows an ad valorem equivalent of 40.00 per cent and upon the basis of the dutiable list
alone of that act applied to 1928 imports shows an ad valorem equivalent of 41.14 per cent.
Attention is called to the fact that the summary table presented below showing the dutiable list of each act calculated independently of the other
act is not directly related to the detailed tabulations shown on pages 3 to 106. Such details for the tariff act of 1922 are to be found in the
published statistics of the Department of Commerce for the year 1928. The supporting details for the tariff act of 1930 would be the same list with
adjustments for free list items made dutiable in the tariff act of 1930, and for certain groups of items in the published statistics to which the new rates
can not be applied.
Imports, duties, and equivalent ad valorem rates, by schedules, for the dutiable list of the tariff act of 1922 and for the dutiable list of the tariff act of 1930,
