Well, say you spend the maximum amount of 10 000.
Then you get:
0.5% for the first 1000 = 0.005*1000 = 5
1% for the next 2000 = 0.01*2000 = 20
1.5% for the next 3000 = 0.015*3000 = 45
2% for the remaining 4000 = 0.02*4000 = 80.

Add everything up to get (5 + 20 + 45 + 80) = 150.

IMHO, this is a case when you use the same system as the progressive tax rate. Please let me know if I'm wrong.

Correct Answer

by gmat740 » Sun Mar 15, 2009 3:20 am
You are absolutely correct:

The answer is 150

Thanks for the explanation.

I just want to ask that whether questions of progressive taxation are important from GMAT point view ??

No, I don't think they are... But you might be faced with smth similar: in this case, it is quite similar to progressive taxation, but, since the GMAT only tests basic concepts and not your knowledge of taxation systems or business, you shouldn't worry.
