对1972-1980年英国加入共同市场的福利后果进行了研究。数据显示，在某些年份，如果英国独立贸易，其经济状况会好一些，相当于GDP的3 - 4%。其平均损失超过GDP的1.5%。此外，还描述了一种可行的替代安排，其中共同市场联盟将使英国和其他共同市场国家都受益，而不会损害非共同市场国家。该方法涉及关税同盟形成的一般均衡模型，该模型决定诸如跨国补偿和共同关税收入分配等财务安排。显然，类似的研究也可以用于其他应用，例如拟议中的北大西洋自由贸易区。
The welfare consequence of Britain's entry into the Common Market is studied for 1972–1980. The figures show that in some years Britain would have been better off, by 3–4 percent of GDP, trading on its own. Its average losses were greater than 1.5 percent of GDP. Moreover, a feasible alternative arrangement is described in which Common Market association would benefit both Great Britain and other Common Market countries without harming non-Common Market countries. The methodology involves a general equilibrium model of customs union formation which determines financial arrangements such as cross-country compensation and the distribution of common tariff revenues. Obviously, similar studies can be done for other applications such as the proposed North Atlantic Free Trade Area.
