Tax rates can be applied in a number of ways, but they are usually expressed either as a percentage or as a fixed amount. If expressed as percentage, tax rates can be progressive, flat or, in rare cases, degressive. Whichever type of tax rate is taken, tax rates are applied on the taxable base which, of course, differs depending on the nature of the tax concerned.
