Rasing the tax rate on essential goods-a traditional means of increasing government revenues-invariably turns low-and middle-income taxpayers against the government. Hence government officials have proposed adding a new tax on purchases of luxury items such as yachts, private planees, jewels, and furs. The officials in government revenues while affecting only the wealthy individuals and corporations who can afford to purchase such items.
The answer to which one of the following questions would be most relevant in evaluating the accuracy of the government officials' prediction?
B. Will be revenues generated by the proposed tax be comparable to those that are currently being generated by taxes on essential goods?
C. Will sales of the luxury items subject to the proposed tax occur at current rates once the proposed tax on luxury items has been passed?
原文的推理是：政府不可能向必需品增税〉政府职能通过向奢侈品征税来增加政府收入。
B比较的是revenues generated by the proposed tax 和currently being generated by taxes on essential goods，现在的必需品税收和提议的税收没有关系。
C的结果会直接support或weaken推理的结果部分，即政府是否可以通过向奢侈品征税来增加收入。作者: alex 时间: 2003-3-27 10:21
啊！明白了。做题时以为B答案中是拿“提议的税收和必须品增长后的税收比。糊涂了！ 谢谢斑竹！
