Consider the economy of Citronia, where citizens consume only oranges. Assume that oranges cost $1 each, and each person can buy at most 5,000 oranges. The government has devised the following tax plans: Plan A Plan B
Consumption up to 1,000 oranges is taxed at 20%. Consumption up to 2,000 oranges is taxed at 30%.
Consumption higher than 1,000 oranges is taxed at 80%. Consumption higher than 2,000 oranges is taxed at 10%.

Required:
Derive the marginal and average tax rates under each tax plan at the consumption levels of 500 oranges.

Explanation:

We are to find marginal tax and average tax rate at a consumption level of 500 oranges for plan A and plan B

Plan A

Consumption level = 500 oranges

Tax = 20%

Tax payable on this = 500 x 20% = 500 x 0.2 = 100

Marginal tax rate = 20 %

Average tax return = 100/500 = 0.2x100 = 20%

Plan B

At tax rate = 30%

Same consumption level

Tax payable = 500 x 30% = 500 x 0.3 = 150

Marginal tax rate = 30%

Average tax rate = 150/500 = 0.3 x 100 = 30%

d,

it's actually a very difficult task, due to not many people can make 2 million dollars in 2 years. besides that, to the not-so-realistic ideas, you can create a business. it could be practically anything, but make it into a business that isn't that known yet, you get me? also, lets not forget about stock market. that's where all the good stuff happens. use investments at the beginning and begin to raise up your business or whatever you're going to do. as this is a very non-realistic idea, it's still worth the shot!
