Summary/Abstract: The basic function of taxes is fiscal function, because the main objective of imposing the obligation to pay taxes on the citizens is providing the funds necessary for sustaining a country. They also serve non-fiscal purposes. In such cases tax accumulation is used, including tax reliefs, exemptions, reductions and rises. This makes the structure of the tax complicated, which in turn makes the tax system unintelligible and prone to fraud. The goal mentioned above can be achieved in a simpler way by changing the tax minimum. However the tax minimum should be diverse, depending not only on the income but also on the personal situation.
