The property taxes on a house that Alan owns and rents out have increased. To balance his monthly budget, he decides to increase his tenants’ rent by $10 per month. He will use the extra money to pay his property tax. In this scenario, what type of tax do his tenants pay?



A. direct tax



B. estate tax



C. excise tax



D. gift tax



E. indirect tax

Respuesta :

e because the land lord is taxing them for what he pays.

Answer:

E) indirect tax

Step-by-step explanation:

Indirect taxes are taxes that can be transferred to other individuals, so that they pay them instead of the original taxpayer.

In this question, Alan should have paid the extra $10 in property taxes, but instead he transferred them to his tenants so that they were responsible for paying them.
