Comment on We'll pass Trump tariffs back as higher prices for Americans: German firm

I don’t understand. If Deutz sells something for $100, and the Americans pay an extra $20 in tariffs to their government for a total of $120, how will Deutz pass this back? Are they going to calculate how much their losses are and add a percentage to the price themselves? Or are they just going to be selling it for $120 themselves instead? (Which would make it cost $144 with tariffs)

Landed price to suppliers will be 20% higher and they will charge accordingly at the end user level.
