Evaluate the economic consequences of increasing progressive taxes in order to redistribute income (6)

Business
1 answer:
Troyanec [42]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

Increasing progressive taxes in order to redistribute income may be seen as a fair and noble thing, but such measure may have several unintended consequences.

Explanation:

One consequence is that if taxes are raised too high on the highest earners, these people may simply leave the country for another one where taxes are lower. Wealthy people have the means to do so in the modern economy.

Another consequence would occurr if the taxes are raised too high on corporations. Corporations may either leave the country as well, or pass through the higher costs to the consumers.

All in all, progressive taxation is seen as a fair system by many economists, but it should be implemented with care, and by making cost/benefit analysis first.

Answer:

$3,500

Explanation:

Step 1 : Determine unit Product Cost

Product Cost = Variable Manufacturing Costs

Step 3 : Determine Inventory value

Inventory value = Units x Cost per unit

                           = 100 units x $ 35

                           = $3,500

Conclusion :

the ending inventory of finished goods under variable costing would be: $3,500

Uber’s strategy has been to break these regulations, establishing its service first, and then fighting attempts by regulators to
aleksley [76]

Answer: No it is not.

Explanation:

Uber by first establishing itself and then fighting regulators leaves itself open to attack around the world. This is because the Regulators have the power to keep adjusting the laws that govern Uber if they feel that Uber has an unfair advantage or if it's existence is detrimental to the society. Uber has been accused many times of various infractions such as Tax Evasions and being a conduit through which crime can be committed because it did not conduct proper background checks.

Going back to the issue of taxes, if the regulators feel that Uber may be avoiding taxes, they could impose laws that either cause an increase in Uber prices or remove them from a location which can have a native influence on Uber's bottomline.

This approach is not good because regulators do not like being fought and will try to ascert dominance. It is simply not viable and this has been proven with Uber's many suspensions around the world.
