Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Generational accounting measures the lifetime tax burden and benefit receipt of individuals born in a particular year. Therefore, option B is the correct choice, as it suggests that males born in 1998 will pay more in taxes than they will receive in benefits from the government over their lifetime. Option A is incorrect, as it suggests that this group will receive more benefits than they pay in taxes. Option C is also incorrect, as it considers a different age group than those born in 1998. Option D is incorrect, as the measure explicitly attempts to project future tax liabilities.
