Refimprove date June 2007 A fixed interest rate loan is a loan where the interest rate doesn t fluctuate during the fixed rate period of the loan. This allows the borrower to accurately predict their future payments. Variable rate loans, by contrast, are anchored to the prevailing discount rate . A fixed interest rate is based on the lender s assumptions about the average discount rate over the fixed rate period. For example, when the discount rate is historically low, fixed rates are normally higher than variable rates because interest rates are more likely to rise during the fixed rate period. Conversely, when interest rates are historically high, lenders normally offer a discount to borrowers to fix their interest rate over time, as rates are more likely to fall during the fixed rate period. Some fixed interest loans particularly mortgages intended for the use of people with previous adverse credit have an extended overhang , that is to say that once the initial fixed rate period is over, the person taking out the loan is tied into it for a further extended period at a higher interest rate before they are able to redeem it.

Multiple issues expert Taxation unbalanced December 2008 unreferenced December 2008 date March 2009 Taxation A fixed tax is a lump sum tax that is not measured as a percentage of the tax base income, wealth, or consumption . Fixed taxes like a poll tax or sin tax are often considered regressive tax regressive , but could have progressive tax progressive effects if applied to luxury goods and services . Since citizens share common roads , military protection, policing , and other Civil service government services , some argue that citizens should pay the same amount for basic infrastructure . Fixed taxation removes the moral dilemma of two individuals having to pay significantly different amounts in order to receive the same services, which could be argued as discrimination against economic success. It is argued that a fixed tax can save on tax compliance costs and improves privacy . Unlike proportional taxes , a fixed tax does not necessitate public insight, i.e. governments would not need to know individual income , wealth , or Consumption economics consumption . However, when applied as a precondition of membership in society or on products bought by the poor, it functions as a potentially extreme regressive tax in that it doesn t consider a person s ability to pay unless further adjustments are made e.g. the way that the Australia n Tertiary education fees in Australia HECS HECS system applies tertiary education charges from a fixed schedule, but defers payments according to people s ability to pay by piggybacking payments as a progressively based surcharge on income tax . This can result in the lower income taxpayers paying much higher proportions of their incomes on taxes, incomes that are less disposable in that they must also pay a larger percentage of their incomes on necessities. Because of this, fixed taxes are better suited to funding governments which are not responsible for providing very much for the citizens and therefore do not have much to pay for. ... more details
