1. If I am in charge of developing a tax system for my country, I will structure the tax rate in such a way that, the rich will pay a higher percentage of tax than the poor. This type of tax system is called progressive tax. The income tax for instance will be based on the amount of income that each person earns, thus, those earning higher incomes will pay more tax than those earning lower incomes. Thus, the rich will always pay the greater percentage of taxes.
2. Tax payments should be used for the following:
a. To fund health programs.
b. To fund national defense and security programs.
c. To fund social security programs.
d. To pay interests on national debts.
e. To pay war veterans.
f. To fund educational program.
g. To fund assistance agricultural programs.
B) bribing government officials
Answer: b. using a fixed basket of goods and, therefore, will tend to overstate inflation.
Explanation:
CPI uses a fixed basket of goods each year and measure inflation by monitoring the changes in this basket over several years/ periods.
This has the tendency to overstate inflation however, due to three(3) main reasons: Substitution bias, Quality bias and New product bias.
With substitution bias, the CPI does not take into account that when products increase in price, people will substitute them for lower priced goods. Quality bias means that CPI does not account for change in quality. New Product bias means that CPI does not account for new and better products as it uses a fixed basket.
Put together these three can cause CPI to overstate inflation by as much as 1% sometimes.
Answer: c. only final goods to avoid double counting when including intermediate goods
Explanation:
The Gross Domestic Product (GDP) is an economic measure that aims to quantify the strength of an economy by checking it's Economic Activity.
When Calculating GDP, the FINAL value of goods and services produced WITHIN a country are the only amounts included to avoid Double Counting of products.
For example, if in making a television, the company making the TV bought electrical parts for $100 and the LED screen for $50 with labour costs of $50 and then sold it to a store for $300 that then sells the Television at $500, $500 is the amount that is included in GDP calculation. None of those other figures will be added again because they are already implicitly included in the final $500.
