taksë regresive, taksë rënëse


Definition from own experience or research:
Taksë, norma e së cilës bie kur aplikohet ndaj shumave më të mëdha.

Example sentence(s):
  • Taksa është regresive kur ajo zbatohet në atë mënyrë që shkalla tatimore pakësohet me rritjen e shumës që është subjekt i tatimit. - peshkupauje.com  

Explanation:
P.sh. për paga 10.000 USD deri 20.000 USD taksa për t'u paguar është 2.000 USD, që do të thotë se punonjësit me pagë 10.000 USD i rëndon 20%, ndërsa punonjësit me pagë 20.000 USD i rëndon 10%. Konsiderohet taksë që u rëndon më shumë subjekteve me nivel më të ulët të ardhurash e më pak subjekteve me nivel të lartë. Tipike, taksë regresive është taksa ndaj shitjeve (sales tax) aksiza (excise tax), dhe taksa e sigurimeve shoqërore (social security tax). Taksa regresive është e kundërta e taksës progresive (progressive tax).
