Definition(s)

  • Taxes are exactions on income, property, services, sales, value added, labor, luxuries, or on any form of wealth. There are two main reasons for levying a tax: to raise revenue or to regulate the uses of goods or services, or to suppress behavior authorities have deemed to be socially unacceptable.
