Intro to Public Policy
The tax base is the total amount of assets, income, or transactions that are subject to taxation by a government. It forms the foundation for how much revenue can be generated through taxes, influencing budgetary decisions and public policy. A broader tax base allows for lower tax rates and a more stable revenue stream, making it a crucial element in economic instruments like subsidies and taxation.
