Answer to Question 1

a

Answer to Question 2

The first reason why this was done was because transaction taxes are inefficient because they tax the same good multiple times. The second reason this was done was to harmonize income tax rates among members of the European Union so one country would not have a government-subsidized advantage over the others.
