Taxes and Subsidies

Description
This mod extends the game with the option to add some extra challenge by substracting taxes from your income or with some support in case you are having a hard time to get started.
A new Tab 'Taxes' has been added to the financial menu showing the journal in a slightly reshaped format: Income, Maintenance and Investments are grouped by the vehicle category. Taxes / Subsidies are separately listed here and show the taxes by category as well.
To change the rates you can access the settings menu from here. All changes are saved to your savegame.
Incometaxes
Tax rates depend on your:
- GrossSales
- GrossProfit (here GrossSales - Maintenance related to the vehicle's category[Depots, Stations, Signals, Vehicles etc])
- GrossProfitMargin (GPM) [ratio between GrossSales and GrossProfit]
The higher the GPM, the higher your taxes. 25% GPM = Max Taxe rate is applied. 50% GPM = 1.5x, >90% = 2.5x
Between 5% and -5% GPM there are no taxes.
If your GPM is negative your Min Tax [or subsidies] Rate is applied. -33% GPM = 100% Subsidies, -66% GPM = 200% Subsidies. Capped at 200%All other taxes are fixed to your setting.

The calculation is based in the gameyear not the indicated date period. Meaning it starts with Year one when you start the game and counts onwards from there, regardless of the defined game speed or datespeed. The periods itself follow the default period.
Next to the date field, the game year is displayed.
Installation
/nPlease only add this mod in existing savegames, otherwise you'll get an error message.

Hi, das ist ein wunderschöner Mod.

Allerdings habe ich ein Problem damit festgestellt. Ich nutze sehr gerne die 1/2 oder 1/4 Datumsgeschwindigkeit. Leider läuft der Mod mit normaler Geschwindigkeit weiter und hält sich nicht an diese geänderte Geschwindigkeit. Kannst du da noch was machen?
Very F*cking cool username 6 Jan, 2024 @ 1:59am

I find the tax mod is just applying taxes in the wrong places, if you ask me.
Interest paid is not accepted as write-offs, taxes on operations do not go on net profits, but on some weird hybrid rule, which - at least for my german frame of reference - makes very little sense.
Also, the numbers in the "tax year" tab of the finance overview seem to be double-accounting for a few things.
So overall a great idea, but the kinks need to be ironed out until I will turn it back on.

Can you create mod to change revenue formula instead of adding taxes?

I think main problem is in vehicle speed give out too much reveue bonus on on everything except passengers.
