Sergeeva-Olga [200]3 years ago

Answer:

A

Explanation:

A regressive tax is a tax system where the same tax rate is applied uniformly. As a result, those earning less income are taxed higher than those earning more income.  

Sales tax is an example of a regressive tax.

If sales tax is 5%. Worker A earns $100 and worker B earns $1000. Both buy a good worth $50 before tax.  the sales tax is worth $2.5.

The tax comprises $2,5 / 100 = 2.5% of worker A's income and $2,5 / $1000 = 0.025% of Worker B's income.

It can be seen that worker A who earns less income is taxed higher

Bond [772]

Answer 1) Option B) Shift to the right.

Given the following information about the economy of Pakistan, calculate Pakistan's GDP. Note that the currency of Pakistan is t
oksano4ka [1.4K]

Answer:

  • <u><em>Pakistan's GDP = 13.53 trillions of rupees.</em></u>

Explanation:

<em>GDP</em> is the gross domestic product. It is the value of all the goods and services produced by an economy (a country), in a period, which is normally one year.

The <em>GDP</em> can be calculated with the equation:

GDP = Consumption + Investment + Goverment spending + Net Exports

Where, Net Exports is the value of the exports less the value of the imports.

Thus, the values that you need to sue to calculate the GDP are:

  • Consumptiion
  • Investment
  • Goverment spending
  • Exports
  • Import

<u>Identify</u> the values that you need to incorporate in your formula. Here is the selection (all the amounts are in trillions of rupees):

  • Consumption = individuals consume: 10.40
  • Investment = businesses invest = 1.35
  • Government spending = goverment purchases = 2.80
  • Exports = Pakistan exports = 1.29
  • Imports: Pakistan imports: 2.31

Those are all. Other items, i.e. foreigners spend (0.60 trillions of rupees) and individuals save (5.00 trillions of rupees), do not count for the GDP.

<u>Compute</u> (in trillions of rupees):

  • GDP = 10.40 + 1.35 + 2.80 + (1.29 - 2.31) = 13.53

<u>Answer</u>: Pakistan's GDP = 13.53 trillions of rupees.
