5. Peoplewhodon‘tdirectlyusepublicschools(suchasMr.andMrs.Ahernorpeoplewhodon‘thave
w w w w w w w w w w w w w w w w w




wchildren)indirectly benefitfromapublic educationsystemforthegeneralpopulation. Arguably, public
w w w w w w w w w w w w w




weducationcontributes toaskilledworkforceandimproves thecultural andsocial environmentinwhich
w w w w w w w w w w w w w w




Mr.andMrs.Ahernlive.Basedonthisargument,Mr.andMrs.Ahernshould not be exempt from the local
w w w w w w w w w w w w w w w w w w w w




wproperty tax. w




6. Theconsumerswhopaythesamepriceforasmallerbarofsoapoflesserqualitybearthe

wincidence of the new gross receipts tax. w w w w w w




7. Realpropertycan‘t behiddenormoved,anditsownership(legaltitle)isamatter ofpublic

8. Arguably,privategolfcoursesbeautifythelocalityandareenvironmentallymoredesirable than
w w w w w w w w w w w w




wothercommercial activities. They alsomay requiremoreacreagethanother businesses and,
w w w w w w w w w w w w




wtherefore, would be at a competitive disadvantage without a preferential real propertytax

wrate.

9. Manyjurisdictions thatlevypropertytaxesprovideanexemptionforpublicinstitutions,suchas state
w w w w w w w w w w w w w w




universities orprivate colleges.IfUniversity K isentitledtosuchanexemption, every commercial
w w w w w w w d w w w w w w w




buildingorresidence acquiredby theUniversity reduces thelocaljurisdiction‘s property tax base.

,10. Excise taxes are imposed on a much narrower range of consumer goods and services than sales
w w w w w w w w w w w w w w w




taxes. Consequently, people can more readily avoid purchasing the specific good or service
w w w w w w w w w w w w w




subject to excise tax.
w w w w




11. Thetaxincreasemay havereducedtheaggregatedemandforconsumergoods and,
w w w w w w w w w w w w




consequently, municipal residents are buying fewer goods. A second possibility is that
w w w w w w w w d w w w




municipalresidents aretravelingtootherjurisdictionswithlowertaxratesormakingmore
w w w w w w w w w w w w w w




purchases through mail order catalogs or on-line.
w w w w w w w




12. Fromapoliticalperspective,liquorandcigarettessales makeanexcellenttaxbase because
w w w w w w w w w w w w w




consumptionofthetwoproducts is purely discretionary,andany declineinconsumption becauseof
w w w w w w w w w w w w w w w




thetaxissociallydesirable.Fromaneconomic perspective,thesesales areagood tax base
w w w w w w w w w w w w w w w w




becausethedemandforliquor andcigarettesisrelatively priceinelastic.Inother words,people
w w w w w w w w w w w w w w w




whodrinkandsmokeonaregularbasisbuytheseproductsregardlessofaheavy excisetax.

w w w w w w w w w w w w w w w




whatever source derived.

14. Aproperty tax is a periodic (usually annual) tax levied on the ownership of property and basedon
w w w w w w w w w w w w w w w w w




thevalueofthepropertyonaparticularassessmentdate.Atransfertaxisa transaction-basedtax
w w w w w w w w w w w w w w w w w w

property at date of transfer.

16. TheInternalRevenueCodeis federalstatutory law,enactedbyCongress andsignedby the President.
w w w w w w w w w w w w w w w




Technically,Treasuryregulationsonlyinterpretandexplainthestatuteandaren‘tlaws intheirown
w w w w w w w w w w w w w w w




right.Thus,regulationsarelessauthoritativethantheCodeitself.However,because Congress
w w w w w w w w w w w w w




authorizedtheTreasury towriteregulations, they arethegovernment‘s official interpretation of

statutory law. Practically, theregulations carry considerableauthoritative weight.
