[edit] Merge

I suggest a merge of Effective tax rate and Marginal tax rate. The new "Tax rates" article should cover "statutory tax rate", "average tax rate", "marginal tax rate", "effective tax rate", "effective average tax rate", & "effective marginal tax rate". I would suggest a move of one of the articles and then a merge of the other (to try and preserve some history). Morphh (talk) 2:36, 20 April 2007 (UTC)

I'd generally like to see this kind of smaller stubby article merged into more general ones, so that's a support. Winklethorpe (talk) 21:31, 20 April 2007 (UTC)
Being bold and made the change. Morphh (talk) 2:20, 23 April 2007 (UTC)
After working on this article, I think the title would have been better unpluralized as Tax rate. I've put in a request to move the article, since Tax rate is an existing page that redirects to this article. Morphh (talk) 2:12, 25 April 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Validate math

Could someone please validate the math? I updated the marginal equation that existed to use math formating but I'm not that familiar with the use of Delta. Morphh (talk) 13:21, 25 April 2007 (UTC)

Looks right to me. It's the same equations as before, and they seem to be the right ones. I've been meaning to learn the math function. Winklethorpe (talk) 18:25, 25 April 2007 (UTC)
