1. It is should be double-spaced.
2. To get started, you may want to think about the following questions:
a. Who benefits from your selected tax credit?

c. Is your tax provision “fair”?
3. You will be graded both on the content of your report and the quality of your writing – including style, organization, grammar, and spelling. Assume that that your target audience is a policymaker or politician who is not a tax expert.
4. You are encouraged to do some research on your credit. Make sure you properly cite any outside sources that you consult in order to avoid plagiarism issues.
5. Your project grade will be calculated pursuant to the following rubric:
