Answer to Question 1

When deciding where to locate a new business, business owners typically have their choice of several sites and thus can choose among various locations. While high property taxes create a disincentive to improve upon property, property taxes are used to provide government services. Thus businesses are concerned with whether the property tax covers the value of the services the business will receive from government. In other words, they will not always locate where property taxes are the lowest. They will locate in communities that have the optimal mix of public sector output at the right property tax price.

Answer to Question 2

C
