Answer:

The correct answer is option b. benefits-received principle of taxation.

Explanation:

The benefits received principle of taxation is based on the concept that the tax you pay now, will be used to provide you with benefits later.

In above scenario, the tax assessed on per gallon of fuel will be used for the maintenance of highway and improvements. This mean that indirectly benefits are being provided with the help of tax proceeds.

This is an example of benefits-received principle of taxation.
