Abstract
The article examines the impact of the prices of imported products in the domestic prices (producer prices and consumer prices) under conditions of imperfect substitution. Special attention is paid to the extent to which imported and domestic goods to replace each other in the domestic market. In this context, examines the relationship elasticity transmission prices for imported products in the domestic prices and the Armington elasticity of substitution. The research is based on a simple one- sector model of supply and demand, which is on the demand side includes the Armington approach. The relationship of the elasticities of substitution and elasticity of transmission price of imports in producer prices and consumer prices is illustrated by the example of the domestic market of meat (poultry, cattle and pork). The results do not contradict the economic reality and the situation on food markets.
