Answer: $47,900

Explanation:

From the question, we are told that part of the initial investment, Ray Blake contributes equipment that had originally cost $96,100 and on which accumulated depreciation of $72,075 has been recorded.

We are further told that assuming similar equipment would cost $164,400 to replace and the partners agree on a valuation of $47,900 for the contributed equipment, we are told to calculate the amount that would be debited to the equipment account.

It should be noted that in a partnership, when the partners contribute an asset, during the recording of the asset in the partnership book, it is recorded based on the agreed valuation price.

In this case, the partners agree on a valuation of $47,900 for the contributed equipment. Therefore, the amount that should be debited to the equipment account will be $47,900.

regressive

Explanation:

A sales tax is a tax on the consumption of goods and services levied by the government or an agency of the government.

There are three types of tax systems

1. Regressive tax system is a tax system where those that earn lower income pay more tax and those that earn higher income pay less tax.  

2. A proportionate tax taxes everyone the same regardless of the amount earned.  

3. A progressive tax is a tax structure where those who earn higher income are taxed more and those that earn less pay less amount of tax.  

A sales tax is regressive.

This can be illustrated with an example.

Person A earns $100,000 while person B earns $1000. They both purchased a good and the sales tax paid was $50.

The proportion of sales tax to income for person A = 50 / 100,000 = 0.05%

The proportion of sales tax to income for person B = 50 / 1000 = 5%

It can be seen that the sales tax  is relatively more expensive to the poor than to the rich. this is an example of a regressive tax
