Smami: Added property tax formula to the page

Every Citizen is taxed a certain amount of money from their balance on a daily basis. Depending on how much you may have, you fall under a bracket to be taxed by a certain percentage. Below you can see a percentage, which represents how much you get taxed in the particular racket, two ranges of money (e.g. $x - $x) showing the money in your balance you must have to fall under this bracket and an amount of money after “max.” showing how much you can be taxed at a maximum in these brackets.

Taxes are subjected to change at any time.


== Tax Brackets ==


=== Personal Balance ===

These rates affect your in-game player balance, viewable by running <code>/balance</code> in-game.

Bracket amounts are inclusive and shall be taxed at the following rates weekly:

{| class="wikitable"
|-
! '''Bracket'''
! '''Taxation Rate (% per week)'''
|-
| '''$0.00 and $99,999.99'''
| 0%
|-
| '''$100,000.00 and $199,999.99'''
| 1%
|-
| '''$200,000.00 and $299,999.99'''
| 1.2%
|-
| '''$300,000.00 and $499,999.99'''
| 1.4%
|-
| '''$500,000.00+'''
| 1.8%
|}


=== Financial Institutions Tax ===

Bracket amounts are inclusive and shall be taxed at the following rates weekly:

{| class="wikitable"
|-
! **Taxation Type
! '''Taxation Rate (% per week)'''
|-
| '''Financial Institution Tax'''
| 10%
|-
| **Financial Institution Depositor Insurance Tax
| 10%
|-
| '''Total'''

|}

{{Tip| You are able to get company exemptions The Department of Commerce may decide to grant or deny exemptions to non-profits and/or financial institutions on a case by case basis.}}

{{Danger| All Towns are Exempt So long as the Town balance is used strictly for Town related purposes. Misuse of tax exempt Town accounts can qualify as corruption and or tax evasion.}}


=== Pruning Tax ===

All players who have been inactive for '''at least 4 consecutive months''' will have the entirety of their personal balance transferred to the DCGovernment balance.

The total of personal funds shall be returned to the citizen if they become active once again.

{{Tip| All record keeping happens on our Forums This way you are able to ask the Department of Commerce to check your record in the case you are prune taxed}}


=== Property Tax ===

Property tax is calculated using the following formula, where x is the amount of plots a player owns, and y is the amount they owe in taxes per day:

y = 2.5(x^2)-6x

These rates only apply to regions with these following naming conventions: <code>cXXX</code>, <code>rXXX</code>, <code>canalXXX</code>, <code>iXXX</code>, and <code>cbdXXX</code>
