Calculate Embedded Emissions for Unwrought Aluminium (HS7601)

Enter your input

Payable emissions (tCO₂e/t)

Total CBAM Cost (€)

Notes:
There may be a difference when calculating the price with respect to import volume, carbon price, and benchmark emissions, as the embedded formula may result in minor variations due to decimal rounding. Therefore, the actual value may vary.

CBAM is applicable to trade volumes starting from 50 metric tonnes. For trade volumes below 50 metric tonnes, CBAM does not apply.

Usage Procedure – How to use the CBAM Calculator Sheet

Enter or update values only in the INPUT
PARAMETERS section (Highlighted in blue) , including
the carbon price, benchmark emissions, CBAM
chargeable percentage (as per the phase-in year),
and imported quantity.

The system will automatically calculate the payable
emissions and the total CBAM cost (€) based on the
inputs provided.

Notes:
• Change any input value to automatically update CBAM cost.
• Formula used: Carbon price × payable emissions × quantity.
• Model aligned with CBAM supplier-side illustrative methodology.

Imported tariffs on US-made cars lead to the possibility of BMWs price hike in China

EDITED BY : DEBANJALI SENGUPTA 2MINS READ

As soon as China’s 25 per cent tariff on US-made cars came into effect on Friday, July 6, German luxury automaker BMW said it would not be able to completely absorb the new tariff and thus, would raise prices on the vehicles it makes in Spartanburg, South Carolina.

BMW said it is “currently calculating related necessary pricing increases” for U.S.-made models imported into China and will announce them “at a later stage.”

Last year, the automaker had shipped more than 100,000 vehicles of high-margin models such X4, X5, and X6 SUV and crossover from the United States to China.

China's 25 per cent tariff on imported US vehicles was nothing but a retaliatory act to the Trump’s administration tariffs on US$34 billion of Chinese imports.

This posed a tough choice for automakers whether they should absorb the cost of tariffs and take a hit to tariffs or hike prices.

“The question for automakers is, are you able to sell your products to consumers at a higher price?” said Johan Gott, a principal at management consulting firm A.T. Kearney. “And if you can’t, what are you going to take that (profit) margin out of?”

Gott said besides this Chinese tariff on US-assembled cars, automakers are already dealing with imported aluminium and steel tariffs in the US and facing the possibility of 25 per cent US tariff on vehicles imported from the EU.
