摘要

本研究对自由贸易区协议对尼日利亚贸易、收入和福利的影响进行了分析评估。该研究应用了世界综合贸易解决方案/市场分析和贸易限制软件（WITS-SMART），以部分均衡模型（PEM）为基础进行模拟。该研究模拟了根据贸易分析信息系统（TRAINS）和瞬态数据交换通用格式（COMTRADE）的协调制度（HS）-2分类代码对选定产品100%取消关税的情况。该研究结果显示，非洲大陆自由贸易区（AfCFTA）协议将使尼日利亚经济受益于估计为8860.419万美元的贸易创造，其中包括价值74057.1万美元的有利福利收益。尽管如此，尼日利亚的贸易收入仍将遭受损失，价值614206.1万美元。该研究建议熟练的收入管理和多样化的收入来源，如提高增值税和增值税，以缓解自由贸易协定中取消关税造成的收入损失的影响。

Impact of Free Trade Area on Trade, Revenue and Welfare in Nigeria

This study offers an analytical evaluation of the effects of Free Trade Area (FTA) agreements on trade, revenue, and welfare in Nigeria. The study applied World-Integrated Trade Solution/Software for Market Analysis and Restrictions on Trade (WITS-SMART), anchored on a partial equilibrium model (PEM) for its simulations. The study simulated 100% tariff elimination on selected products under Harmonized System (HS)-2 classification code sourced from Trade Analysis Information Systems (TRAINS) and Common Format for Transient Data Exchange (COMTRADE). The study’s findings show that the African Continental Free Trade Area (AfCFTA) agreement will benefit Nigeria’s economy from trade creation estimated at US$8,860.419 million, including a favorable welfare gain to the value of US$740.571 million. Nevertheless, Nigeria will sustain losses in trade revenue, valued at US$6,142.061 million. The study recommends proficient revenue management and well-diversified revenue collection sources, such as improvement in Value Added Tax and Ad-Valorem duty, to cushion the effects of the revenue loss resulting from tariff elimination in the FTA.
