to protect certain fledging industries,the goverment of country Z banned imports of the types of products those industry were starting to make.As a direct result,the cost of those products to the buyers,several ezport-dependent industries in Z,went up,sharply limiting the ability of those industries to compete effictively in their export markets.

which of the following conclusions about countryZ's adversely affected export-dependent industries is best supported by the passage?

答案是：profit margins in those industries were not high enough to absorb the rise in the costs mentioned above.


我的疑问：题中说限制进口该产品直接导致了the costs of those products to buyers,several export-dependent industries in Z,went up,那就是说，国内的出口公司买这个产品的价格比原来高了，是这个意思吗？为什么啊，限制进口应该直接导致生产量需要加大，总投入增加我可以理解，可是这个costs是指什么，为什么会增高啊，我要纠结死了

大家帮帮我个菜鸟吧!

problem:ban import-cost to buyer rise.
answer:cost rise cannot be included in original profit margin.

so the profit margins of those industries would therefore go down and the decrease of that consequently sharp the industries' competiveness
