A tax relief in Grootland for those portions of a taxpayer's income, if any, that are set aside to increase that taxpayer's total savings
B tax relief in Grootland for the processing fees that taxpayers pay to lending institutions when obtaining certain kinds of loads
C tax relief in Grootland for interest that taxpayers are changed on the unpaid balance in credit card accounts
D taxes due in Grootland on the cash value of gifts received by taxpayers from banks trying to encourage people to open savings accounts
E taxes due in Grootland on the amount that a taxpayer has invested in interest-bearing savings accounts
