regressive taxation Explanation: A regressive tax is a tax imposed in such a manner that the tax rate decreases as the amount subject to taxation increases.[1][2][3][4][5] In simple terms, a regressive tax imposes a greater burden (relative to resources) on the poor than on the rich — there is an inverse relationship between the tax rate and the taxpayer's ability to pay as measured by assets, consumption, or income. "Regressive" describes a distribution effect on income or expenditure, referring to the way the rate progresses from high to low, where the average tax rate exceeds the marginal tax rate.[6][7] It can be applied to individual taxes or to a tax system as a whole; a year, multi-year, or lifetime. Regressive taxes attempt to reduce the tax incidence of people with higher ability-to-pay, as they shift the incidence disproportionately to those with lower ability-to-pay. The opposite of a regressive tax is a progressive tax, where the tax rate increases as the amount subject to taxation increases.[8][9][10][11] In between is a flat or proportional tax, where the tax rate is fixed as the amount subject to taxation increases. The term is frequently applied in reference to fixed taxes, where every person has to pay the same amount of money. The regressivity of a particular tax often depends on the propensity of the tax payers to engage in the taxed activity relative to their income. In other words, if the activity being taxed is more likely to be carried out by the poor and less likely to be carried out by the rich, then the tax may be considered regressive. To determine whether a tax is regressive, the income-elasticity of the good being taxed as well as the income-substitution effect must be considered. It is possible for a tax to be regressive but result in a progressive effect, and vice versa — as the poor tend to gamble more than the rich, a progressive tax on lotteries could be regressive in its effect; as the rich tend to own more debt instruments than the poor, a regressive tax could have progressive overall effects. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Regressive_tax http://financial-dictionary.thefreedictionary.com/Regressive... http://www.cambridge.org/catalogue/catalogue.asp?isbn=052182... |

by way of (Revenue Authority) clawback/(taxpayer) recoupment Explanation: If the sum is collected by the Revenue, then clawback.

Reference: SWE-ENG question Reference information: http://www.proz.com/kudoz/swedish_to_english/real_estate/182... Nu pot să comentez asupra răspunsurilor oferite la aceea întrebare, dar e interesant de ştiut că există un termen "paralel" şi în limba suedeză! Cred că ne-ar ajuta să ştim despre ce fel de sume este vorba şi cui anume se plătesc. Pentru cine ştie limba rusă, am găsit următoarea definiţie a sintagmei "право регресса" (mot-à-mot: "dreptul de regres") http://www.glossary.ru/cgi-bin/gl_sch2.cgi?RPwgiu!wljwlxxg În contextul tău are precis de-a face cu impozitare? În mai multe dintre exemplurile pe care le-am găsit în limba rusă, e vorba de daune (de exemplu, în cazul accidentelor rutiere). -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 22 hrs (2009-04-04 15:39:18 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- Alte două surse care ar putea să fie de ajutor (tot pe tema daunelor): http://www.rubinian.com/dictionar_detalii.php?id=4191 http://www.proz.com/kudoz/romanian_to_english/insurance/9168... -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 1 day2 hrs (2009-04-04 19:21:17 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- Este deci "by way of recourse", cred. Nu ştiu dacă ştii limba rusă, dar am citit cele două definiţii de mai jos şi par a se referi la exact acelaşi lucru, iar cel din limba rusă dă şi termenul englezesc: Drept de regres Actiune indreptata de catre o persoana fizica sau juridica fata de alta persoana pentru recuperarea unei sume platite. Regresul se practica in cazuri de protest al politelor sau cecurilor. Actiunea de regres se exercita de catre posesorul titlului de credit, la scadenta sau inainte de aceasta impotriva tragatorului, girantilor si avalistilor, daca trasul refuza plata in total sau in parte. Actiunea de regres se poate exercita si inainte de scadenta, in situatia in care starea economica a trasului este incerta. http://www.rubinian.com/dictionar_detalii.php?id=2351 РЕГРЕСС (англ. recourse) - обратное требование о возмещении уплаченной суммы. Применяется при протесте векселя или чека и в др. случаях. Векселедержатель может предъявить регрессные требования к векселедателю и всем индоссантам. Страховщик, уплативший страховую сумму, может предъявить обратное требование в пределах этой суммы к лицам, виновным в наступлении страхового случая. http://lib.mabico.ru/1575.html |
