Dear Madam, COMPLAINT ABOUT THE DEPLORABLE CONDITION OF ROADS IN MY AREA

I wish to complain about the deplorable condition of the roads in my area. The roads in my area are in such a deplorable condition that the people in my area have started doubting whether they are Nigerians. The condition of these roads has debilitating effects on the lives of my people.

The potholes on these roads have damaging effects on the vehicles plying the roads. Both the private owners of vehicles and commercial bus drivers are wailing daily, complaining about the damaging effects of these roads on their vehicles. Many private car owners have parked their cars because they spend a lot of money repairing their cars which are damaged daily as a result of the poor state of the roads while many transporters have withdrawn their vehicles from the roads. This ultimately affects movement of people and goods from one place to the other in the area. As a result of this, transport fare is exorbitant.

Secondly, the roads have become danger zone for travelers who are traveling from one community to the other. Apart from the incessant road accidents and loss of lives which would have been prevented if these roads were to be in good shape, armed robbers constantly dispossess commuters of their belongings and valuables on these roads. The worst incidence of such robbery happened a month ago when some of our people were robbed on their way to the market which was caused by the deplorable condition of the roads. Madam, the most painful scene of this incident was that the young girls who were traveling in the bus were raped by these criminals.

Moreover, these bad roads deny us of things we are supposed to benefit from. For instance, it was discovered that our area is enclosed with some natural resources which foreign explorers promised to come and explore but could not come to begin their mining operations because of the bad roads. If not for the deplorable condition of our roads, our community would have contributed immensely to the revenue of the country.

Madam, I have heard of the good work that you have done in many parts of the country and I know that you are a kind woman who would not like people to suffer. Therefore, I would appreciate it, if you could use your good offices to repair the roads in my area.

Yours faithfully,

(Signature)

Correct Answer: C) feudalism

Explanation

Karl Marx believed that feudalism was followed by capitalism, which is a system where private individuals and businesses own and control the means of production. Marx argued that capitalism was characterized by exploitation of the working class and that it would eventually be replaced by socialism, where the means of production are owned and controlled by the workers themselves.

It's important to note that Karl Marx's ideas are just one perspective on the development of societies and their economies, and there are other theories that may differ from his views. Nonetheless, understanding these different perspectives can help us better understand the complexities of the world around us.

Correct Answer: D. The interaction between buyers and sellers in agricultural markets

Explanation

The concept of demand and supply in agriculture refers to the interaction between buyers and sellers in agricultural markets. It is based on the principle that the quantity of agricultural products demanded by consumers and the quantity supplied by producers determine the equilibrium price and quantity in the market.

Explanation

(a)(i) Tax rate =Tax payment x100 for A

tax base 1

For Jawara = 1,500 x 100 = 10%

15,000 1

(ii) Audu= \(\frac{6000*100} {60,000 *1}\) = 10% for A

\(\frac{3000*100} {60,000*1}\) = 5% for B

(iii) Ade = \(\frac{200*100} {25,000*1}\) = 8%

(iv) Eke \(\frac{2240*100} {32,000*1}\) = 7%

(b) (i) Column A- Proportional system of taxation

Column B - Regressive system of taxation.

(ii) Audu

(c) (i) Jawara= \(\frac{15 x 15000} {100 *1}\) = 2,250.00

Ade = \(\frac{15 x 25,000} {100*1}\) .= 3,750.00

Eke = \(\frac{15 x 32000} {100 *1}\) = 4,800.00

Audu \(\frac{15 x 60,000} {100*1}\) = 9,000.00

Total Revenue = 19,800.00 or 15% of total Income =

15 x 132,000

100

= 19,800.00

Disposal income = income - taxationor Tax base - tax paid

Jawara = 15,000 - 2,250 = 12,750.00

Ade = 25,000 - 3, 750.00 = 21,250.00

Eke = 32,000 - 4,800.00 = 27,200.00

Audu = 60,000 - 9,000 = 51,000.00

Correct Answer: B. gratified

Correct Answer: B. Slope
