Africans now increasingly engage in “online shopping,” which is marketing across the internet sphere, where prices are lower. Prices are lower across the internet in large part because the goods-and-services tax that pays for Africans social services is not applied.
Which one of the following is best supported on the basis of the information above?
(A) If the upward trend in online-shopping continues at a significant level and the amounts paid by the government for African social services are maintained, the African goods-and-services tax will be assessed at a higher rate.
(B) If Africa imposes a substantial tariff on online goods, the price of these goods will reduce even further, thereby hurting African businesses
(C) The amounts the African government pays out to those who provide social services to Africans are increasing.
(D) The same brands of goods are available to African shoppers on the internet as are available in Africa
(E) Online-shopping purchases are subject to African taxes when the purchaser brings the goods into Africa

Imo answer A tells us that if online purchases increase accordingly there might be less physical purchases with the government tax applied thus defunding government budget to maintain African social services. This dynamic will conduce to African goods-and-services tax assessed at a higher rate.
