@Hemanth.

Read the passage carefully and you will find that the last sentence is related to imports and transportation is an essential factor for imports and here that is exactly what is being concerned. In case of transport, we use cost, Don't we? So 'costs' is the correct one, not the 'prices'.

The context makes us choose 'prices', but neither 'costs' nor 'prices' should be used with CHEAP! The correct collocations are 'low prices' and 'low costs'. Goods can be cheap.
