Emerald City is a center for businesses that assemble personal computers. Components for these computers are manufactured elsewhere in the State of Oz and other states and then shipped to Emerald City, where the computers are assembled. An Emerald City ordinance imposes a special license tax on all of the many companies engaged in the business of assembling computers in Emerald City. The tax payable by each such company is a percentage of the company’s gross receipts. The Oz statute that authorizes municipalities to impose this license tax has a provision that requires the city license tax to be reduced by a percentage equal to the proportion of computer components manufactured in Oz. ABC Company assembles computers in Emerald City and sells them from its offices in Emerald City to buyers throughout the United States. All of the components of its computers come from outside Oz. Therefore, ABC Company must pay the Emerald City license tax in full without receiving any reduction. Other Emerald City computer assemblers use components manufactured in Oz in varying proportions and, therefore, are entitled to partial reductions of their Emerald City license tax payments. ABC Company has brought an action in a proper court asking to have Emerald City’s special license tax declared unconstitutional on the ground that it is inconsistent with the negative implications of the Commerce Clause.In this case, the court should rule:

The treaty provided that citizens of both the United States and Swiceland are required to pay whatever tort damages were awarded against them by a court of either nation.
