Exploring Tax Rates by Income Level and Tax Type (Financial Algebra 1.4)

In this activity, students explore interactive data on tax rate by income level, disaggregated into different tax types (income tax, payroll tax, corporate and property tax, sales tax, and estate tax). Students analyze whether different taxes are progressive, regressive, or proportional. This activity is part of NGPF's free Financial Algebra course (Lesson FA-1.4). Data sources: • The Federal Reserve • The Triumph of Injustice (Appendix Table C8)
