Resource rent tax
Tax on surplus value of resource exploitation
Summary
A resource rent tax is a tax on the rents gained on the exploitation of a resource. It can cover both renewable and non-renewable resources. It is classically understood to be a tax on the surplus value generated by resource exploitation beyond the necessary costs of production. An investor enjoys relief from taxation until a certain rate of return has been achieved, at which point profits are shared with the host government.
