    D) manufacturer or farmer from lower priced goods imported into the country.

    Explanation:

    An import tariff is an instrument by which the government aims to protect the domestic industry from foreign competition. This is used as a national industry development policy. For example, if a Chinese product can be sold cheaper than an American product, the US government may introduce a tariff to make the Chinese product more expensive upon entering the US. This is an artificial way of making the national product more competitive with the Chinese product. It is a counter-liberal policy, not considered good by most economists.
