Chuck Marginal Tax Rate
a) The marginal tax rate for Chuck if he earns additional $40,000 taxable income will be:
= $75,000 + $40,000

b) If instead, it is an additional deduction of $40,0000, the marginal tax rate will be:

Cost of Mineral Mine $3,700,000
Less: Ascribed Land Value <u>$395,000</u>
Depletionable Value <u>$3,305,000</u>

Answer:
I believe that a form of universal income would be a better policy than the traditional directed government benefits or welfare.
Explanation:
This is because the idea of the universal income would be to replace the welfare programs, by giving people a reasonable amount of money so that they can decide by themselves in what utilities or amenities to spend that money.
Programs with poor incentives like food stamps, or inefficiently run public-programs, could be replaced by universal income without causing harm to ther beneficiaries, and possibly even generating more benefit.
