The paper assesses and quantifies the impact of unilateral commercial policies on revenue based on USA imports from China in different time periods. China's historical export subsidy policy and the USA countervailing duty protection policy after 2006 are the main concerns of the paper. A hybrid panel data set for China's representative "Top Ten Industries" is constructed as a source of economic and legal information for the analysis of the policy issue. A comparative static analysis provides a theoretical framework for representing tariffs, such as Antidumping and Countervailing duties as "offsetting duty norms", consistent with WTO principles of free and fair trad. The mathematical model allows derivation of the subsidy elasticity of trade value which can evaluate the effect and efficiency of export subsidies on the home country's revenue. The theoretically derived ratio of revenue with and without distortion suggests a method for estimating price elasticities of demand and supply. The main finding of the paper is a functional relationship between trade value, unilateral policy and the price elasticities. The total differential of trade value with respect to subsidy and tariff helps to explain frequently arising tit-for-tat trade disputes among nations when tariffs are not functioning as "offsetting duty norms".
