The formula is idiotic for other reasons, i.e. it has nothing to do with "tariffs"

well yes obviously it has nothing to do with tariff of a country
thank goodness, you are finally realising it has nothing to do with china 67 as a set number
thank goodness, you are finally realising it has nothing to do with china reciprocol 34 as a set number

it took you many days but you are finally seeing it
it has nothing to do with the china tariff number

dont back-step now

also the formula is not about a per country discount that varies or is unique per country

the formulae is about doing it for all countries to collectively get a global weighted average to single discount amount to use against all(majority of) countries apart from those that would end up discounting below 10% where the rate then fixes at base 10%

as for vietnam yes the number is higher at like 9.42
and other countries like the UK are lower at 0.174

but the global weighted average and long term balances out as 2 aka 50% off aka /2 aka 2:1 and 1/2

but i am glad you are now admitting the formulae has nothing to do with china 67 tariff.. one step forward for you

if the global average was for instance 4.. the discount would be 4:1 or 75% taken-off or 25% of X or 1/4 of X, /4
because world deficit would be worse than the 2 scenario so the discount would need to be more to incentivise global economy change to sway more towards the US side

i can see how you are determined to keep trying to want to learn about how to explain "china 67"
this is not the topic for you

make a new topic asking or mentioning about wanting answers to "china 67". and im sure someone can help you out.. ive given you a few hints already about that separate subject, so do try to learn them a bit before going full idiot on that topic

but because you are flip flopping and saying:
its about Y and then saying but it make no sense so cant be about Y.
left number is right number
its bad math formulae is dumb as it is meaningless

its obvious you dont know what its about, so just accept you dont know.
make your own topic and then get some info along the way about the topic you actually want to know about/have explained to you

understand THIS topic is not about china 67. and the formulae is not about china 67
make a new topic if you want to know about china 67

dont reply.. just make a new topic
