Excess profits tax: An excess profits tax in economics is a tax levied on profits that exceed a normal or expected level of earnings, typically during periods of economic boom or war. It aims to prevent excessive profiteering by imposing higher taxes on unusually high profits, ensuring a more equitable distribution of wealth and addressing inflationary pressures.
