TAX TAXES
[:: Legends Of The Jedi ::]Taxes are an essential part to the concept of running a planet. If a clan
governs a planet and they are above 0 in popular support they will be able to
apply their tax rate automatically to every formal transaction that goes on.
For instance, if Coruscant is governed by the Republic and they are in good
standing with popular support, they will get taxes. If their tax rate is 20%
and an item is purchased for 1000 credits, 200 credits go to the Republic as
taxes and 800 goes to the merchant. The same applies for someone who sets a fee
of 500 credits to enter his workshop. When someone enters they pay 500 credits
and 100 credits will go to the Republic for taxes.
Buying ships, selling ships, buying items, selling items, even renting public
ships and buying structures are all taxed. This of course requires that a clan
is governing the planet these transactions are taking place upon.
All tax funds are deposited directly into the governing clan's funds. It then
brings to mind the question of what happens if one planet has the lowest tax
rate of all? Wouldn't it be more profitable to do business there?
