求助 GWD-13-27 不知道为什么选B

Which if the following, if true, most logically completes the argument?

 

Aroca
                County
’s public schools are supported primarily by taxes on property.  The county plans to eliminate the property tax and support schools with a new three percent sales tax on all retail items sold in the county.  Three percent of current retail sales is less than the amount collected through property taxes, but implementation of the plan would not necessarily reduce the amount of money going to Aroca County public schools, because ______.

 

A.      many Aroca
                County
residents have already left the county because of its high property taxes

B.      a shopping mall likely to draw shoppers from neighboring counties is about to open in Aroca
                County

C.      at least some Aroca
                County
parents are likely to use the money they will save on property taxes to send their children to private schools not funded by the county

D.      a significant proportion of parents of Aroca
                County
public school students do not own their homes and consequently do not pay property taxes

E.       retailers in Aroca
                County
are not likely to absorb the sales tax by reducing the pretax price of their goods

B

 

这道题为什么选B?  还是不懂   哪位NN帮忙分析一下

这道题的逻辑是这样的:

从property tax转向sales tax --> 目前的sales tax要低于property tax所得 --> 作者认为这种切换不会导致总额降低 --> sales taxi不会低于property tax --> 所以sales tax将会增加,否则这个逻辑会有问题。查看五个选项中只有B会导致sales tax增加。
