Answer:
The correct answer is D. imposes a small deadweight loss relative to the tax revenue it raises.
Explanation:
By not discouraging the activity, it is understood that taxes should not distort the economic decisions of the individuals subject to taxation. In the theory of Public Finance the inefficiency of taxation can be analyzed through the so-called "excess tax", as a quantification of the loss of utility generated by a distorting tax. The excess of tax arises because the loss of total welfare generated by the tax on the individual with the modification in their behavior, is greater than the mere loss of welfare caused by the decrease in disposable income that comes with the payment of the tax. The value of excess tax that is generated by the substitution effect is greater the higher the tax rate and elasticity (Musgrave, 1986). Therefore, the relationship of exchange between efficiency and equity is not so simple for governments when designing their fiscal policy.
Answer: the U.S. real interest rate and net exports will both rise.
Explanation: Due to the ongoing war abroad, there would be a reduction in production of goods and services in the affected countries and a rise in the production of goods and services in the safe haven country (US) leading to increased levels of export to meet the demand.
War affects investments negatively. As a result, investments are also moved to the US for safety. However, pressure on US producers and eventual shortage due to increased exports, would lead to inflation and increase in prices of goods and services. To mitigate these effects and to reduce the supply of money, government would increase interest rates.
This explains why both interest rates and export both rise.
