Solution

The prohibitive tariff is a tariff that A) is so high that it eliminates imports. This type of tariff is set at such a high rate that it makes imports prohibitively expensive, thereby effectively eliminating them. This is often used as a protective measure to shield domestic industries from foreign competition.
