  1. A
    Tax Buoyancy
  2. Tax ElasticityCevap
  3. C
    Tax Impact
  4. D
    Fiscal Drag

Cevap

Tax Elasticity
Tax Elasticity measures the automatic responsiveness of tax revenue to changes in Gross Domestic Product (GDP) when tax rates, structures, and bases remain unchanged. By controlling for discretionary fiscal measures, it indicates the true underlying productivity of a tax system.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Define the relationship between tax revenue growth and overall economic growth (GDP).
Identify that public finance distinguishes between automatic growth and policy-driven revenue growth.
Tax responsiveness can occur either naturally due to income expansion or artificially through new tax legislation.
2
Isolate the metric that removes discretionary fiscal policy adjustments.
Confirm that excluding discretionary changes yields Tax Elasticity.
Tax Elasticity measures structural yield sensitivity under unchanged tax laws, whereas Tax Buoyancy includes legislative changes.
