Daily Incoming (Tax) formula is defective

Hi Guys,

Anyone raise the same problem to SimCity Support as well?

As confirmed by verification by my own Population data

(Ratio)

Formulas for tax incomes:

up to 5k: 1199+0.336*pop

between 5 and 50k: 2133+0.1493*pop

between 50 and 100k: 7148+0.04864*pop

between 100k and 500k: 10200+0.018*pop

500k and above: 16800+0.0048*pop

 

And the problem is why tax rates use Total Population, but the "pop" calculates with Population of Capital City only.

 

Population in all Expansion map simply causing more problems only. Rather than benefits.

    @ROL801-801  Extremely impressive detail but I do not believe the formula is necessarily defective. The basic issue is there is no exchange rate between simoleons and the region currencies and thus (probably by design) no tax is earned on the regions which conceptually is ridiculous in any real world scenario. I raised this issue during the initial week of regions and it has yet to be addressed which is ok...there are much bigger issues at hand. As related to the neo-simoleons I have great confidence you’ll come up with an answer which I look forward to reading...good luck on the endeavor.
