Suppose Country X subsidizes its exports and Country Y imposes a countervailing tariff that offsets the subsidys

Question:

Suppose Country X subsidizes its exports and Country Y imposes a “countervailing”

tariff that offsets the subsidy’s effect, so that in the end, relative prices in Country Y are unchanged. What happens to the terms of trade? What about welfare in the two countries? Suppose, on the other hand, that Country Y retaliates with an export subsidy of its own. Contrast the result.
