inflation and taxes SSEPF3: The student will explain how changes in monetary and fiscal policy can have an impact on an individual’s spending and saving choices

Effects of Inflation High inflation decreases purchasing power Savings decline => banks suffer

Tax Structures #1 – Proportional Taxes “Flat Tax” Everyone pays the same percentage of their income Social Security

#2 – Progressive Taxes “Graduated” tax rate Percentage of income taxed increases as income increases Personal income tax

#3 – Regressive Taxes A tax that takes a larger percentage from low-income people than from high-income people Sales tax, property tax, excise tax For example, if a person has $10 of income and must pay $1 of tax on a package of cigarettes, this represents 10% of the person's income. If the person has $20 of income, this $1 tax only represents 5% of that person's income.
