这家美国连锁店表示，它收到了 9.94 亿美元的税前报销，这使得第二季度的营业收入从去年的 13 亿美元翻了一番，达到 26 亿美元。

Target is the latest of many businesses both large and small being given tax rebates on goods imported to the US following a Supreme Court ruling that declared a wave of President Donald Trump's import tariffs were unlawful.♪

在最高法院裁决宣布唐纳德·特朗普总统的一系列进口关税非法后，许多大大小小的企业都获得了对美国进口商品的退税，Target是其中最新一家。

The president has used and threatened tariffs on dozens of countries since he returned to the White House last year.♪ He has argued the trade policy will boost American manufacturing and jobs as businesses either source goods domestically or shift operations to the US.♪

自去年重返白宫以来，总统已对数十个国家使用或威胁征收关税。 他认为，随着企业要么在国内采购商品，要么将业务转移到美国，贸易政策将促进美国制造业和就业机会。

But economists have warned prices for consumers can rise as businesses, which pay the tax when importing goods, pass on the extra cost to customers.♪

但经济学家警告说，由于企业在进口商品时缴纳税款，将额外成本转嫁给消费者，消费者的价格可能会上涨。

当被问及塔吉特将如何使用关税退款时，首席财务官吉姆·李没有提供细节，但补充道：“我们已经并将继续在价格方面进行投资。” 去年，该公司大幅下调了预期，并将其归咎于当时征收关税的“充满挑战的环境”。
