ABILITY TO PAY
An economic principle that states that the tax amount that an individual pays must be dependent on the degree of burden that the tax will create in relation to the wealth of an individual. The principle of ability to pay advocates that the real amount of tax to be paid isn't the only factor to be addressed, and that other issues, such as ability to pay, should also be put into consideration into a tax system.
