(Round your intermediate calculations and final answer to 2 decimal places.) 3 Answer is complete but not entirely correct. 106,666.67 b. If the income effect is descriptive, the tax base and the tax collected will increase False

Explanation / Answer

Your calculation 100% correct. But you should enter the additional tax only. i.e 6,666.67

In descriptive model, firstly we take after tax current income equal to after tax future income

( 100,000 - 20000) = X ( 1 - 0.25)

0.75 * X = 80000

X = 106,666.67

So additional tax = 106,666.67 - 100,000 = 6,666.67...............final answer
