Revenue Mix
Tax revenue is a fundamental component to governmental budgets and subsequent spending. Particularly, in economic downturns, government tends to spend large sums of money in an effort to stimulate the economy and drive economic growth. To properly prepare and mitigate the cyclical nature of tax revenues, diversification is required. Through proper diversification, governments are better positioned to provide adequate service irrespective of the prevailing macroeconomic circumstances. Although aspects such as interest rates, political grid-lock, and unemployment impact all governments; through a diversified revenue stream, the impact of such occurrences will be significantly diminished. As such, a thorough tax revenue analysis is needed to prepare the city of Swobodaville for the cyclical nature of the business cycle, and the subsequent volatility in tax revenue (Williams, 2008).

Generally, wealthy individuals, who obtain a greater proportion of their income from capital gains, tend to pay a lower tax rate. For securities held over one year, the tax rate is 15% as oppose to the 25% for gains on securities held less than a year. In addition, lower income families as a percentage of income; do not pay large sums of money in taxes due to their overall socio economic status. Therefore, the government would need to know the percentage of individuals on the upper end and lower end of the tax base to quantify, in dollar terms, the amount of lost revenue from these two segments. What may be occurring is that a greater proportion of the…

limiting factor in determining the size of a budget in the public sector is the capacity to tax or generate revenue.
