Answer:

regressive

Explanation:

A regressive tax is basically a tax whose rate increases as your income decreases. Generally you do not need to increase the marginal tax rate of lower income levels, all you need to do is have a flat tax that taxes everyone with the same amount. E.g. everyone pays $2,000 as income taxes. $2,000 per person represents 10% of the first household's income, but it only represents 2.7% of the fourth household's income.

On the other hand, progressive taxes increase as the income level of the taxpayers increases.

Elodia [21]

Answer:

$42,680 under applied

Explanation:

The computation is shown below:

First, Calculate the predetermined overhead rate per hour which equals to

=  (Estimated Overhead cost ÷ estimated machine hours)  

= ($175,100 ÷ 25,600 hours)

= $6.84 per hour

So, the applied overhead equals to

=  Predetermined overhead rate per hour × actual machine hours

= $6.84 per hour × 20,500 hours

= $140,220

So, the over/under applied overhead equals to

= Applied overhead - actual overhead

=  $140,220 - $182,900

= $42,680 under applied
