Tax Rate

1) The rate at which a business or person is taxed on income. Essentially the percent of income that goes towards taxes.

2) The rate of tax on good and services.

Notes:

1) For example, consider an individual with an income-tax rate of 30%. For every $100,000 that individual makes, $30,000 ($100,000 x 0.30) must be paid as tax.

There are three main types of tax rates: progressive, proportional and regressive.

2) For example, (as of 2005) in New York State the state tax rate is 4.25%. If you were to buy a $1000 television from a store, the total purchase price would be $1042.50, and the $42.50 in tax would go to the State of New York.
