US-BR Transaction Costs

The definition of transaction cost refers to registration and formalities expenses to carry out a business, such as: Fees, taxes, brokerage, fees, consultancies, feasibility studies, simulations, projects, processes, licenses, rights, permissions, concessions, patents, fines, rents, financing, arbitrations, guarantees, insurance, certifications, expertise, reports, budgets, tests, daily allowances, tickets, dislocation, indemnities, preparation, dispatches, information processing, flow of components production cost, costs direct and indirect, fixed costs, variable costs, risk analysis, replacement alternatives, useful life, intangible benefits, tangible benefits, collateral risks, replacement costs, exit cost, entry cost, maintenance cost, time cost, prestige, short-term risks, long-term risks, indirect advantages, direct advantages, non-monetizable costs, intangible advantages, costs not directly appropriated, collective merit goods, amortization, fundraising and resource leverage, budgetary limitations, technological limitations , legal limitations, political limitations, strategic barriers, chain effects, supply chain, objectives and goals, access to sources of financial resources, access to sources of material resources, access to non-obsolete technology, access to cooperation programs, access to postgraduate programs, access to joint ventures, access to cooperative projects, access to purchasing and selling markets.

The task of analyzing the cost of diplomatic transactions between the BR-USA must be done by comparing the same thing between the USA and all countries in the world, its allies, enemies, friends and supporters.

For each variable listed above for evaluating the cost of participation, a point is assigned and for each variable a specific weight to weigh the expectations of each actor both in the transfer of advantages to the USA and the costs of transferring advantages from the USA to its partner .
 
At the end we will know the costs of not participating and the costs of participating in diplomatic relations between BR-USA. I believe that this study has never been attempted considering that US retaliations against different enemies with the most diverse sanctions have produced different results for the same sanctions applied at different times to different partners and enemies, as the histories of relationships can show us. international issues involving punishments and bonuses distributed to different countries such as the trade blockade in Cuba, North Korea, the housekeeping brake at the Hotel Plazza in Japan's growing economy, or the sanctions on Iran and Russia, some gave results in the expected direction, others in the opposite direction, then it is necessary to particularly evaluate what would happen to BR if it eliminated US-BR transaction costs through total diplomatic radical independence decoupling, or through a radical and total merger of firmly committed interests.
