Uma kukhona indawo lapho iPortugal ikude “nomsila we-Europe”, leyo ndawo ingeyamanani kaphethiloli, nezwe lethu linentengo ebiza kakhulu “Ezweni Elidala”, kungaba uphethiloli noma udizili.
Ekupheleni kukaFebhuwari, izwe lethu libe nelikaphethiloli wesine obiza kakhulu eYurophu, okuwumphumela wokukhuphuka kwamanani okubonakale kusukela ekuqaleni kuka-2021.
Ngokombiko weJornal i, kulo nyaka uphethiloli usukhuphuke ngo-11 cents, kanti udizili unyuke ngo-9.1 cents. Ngamanye amazwi, emasontweni ayisishagalolunye onyakeni intengo kaphethiloli ilokhu ikhuphukile njalo udizili awukaze usalele emuva, okuhlukile kuyisonto lokuqala kuNhlolanja lapho intengo yalamafutha yehla khona.
Uma sibuyela emuva ku-2020, ukunyuka kwamanani kuye kwazwakala amasonto angu-17 alandelanayo (!), okuwukuphela kwento ehlukile ukwehla kwentengo kadizili.
Kungani sikhokha kangaka?
Njengoba wazi kahle, inani olikhokhela ilitha likaphethiloli lincike ezintweni ezimbalwa. Ezinye zazo zizimele ezweni lakithi futhi zixhunywe ngentengo kawoyela (nge-Brent barrel njengereferensi).Bhalisela iphephandaba lethu
Ukwengeza, isikweletu sakho sikaphethiloli sihlanganisa nezindleko ezimisiwe zokugcinwa nokusatshalaliswa kukaphethiloli kanye nenani lokufaka ama-biofuels (okungamaphesenti aboniswa kubhili oyitholayo lapho uthela uphethiloli).
Kodwa-ke, "ucezu lwesimo" (okungumthwalo wentela) oletha intengo kaphethiloli e-Portugal eduze nephezulu kakhulu eYurophu (futhi kude, isibonelo, kusukela kulawo asetshenziswa eSpain).
Izintela zikaphethiloli zinesisindo esingu-60% enanini lokugcina elidayiselwe umphakathi, okusho ukuthi kuwo wonke ama-euro ayi-100 achithwa kuphethiloli, ama-euro angama-60 aya ngqo kuhulumeni.
Ngaphezu kwentela evamile ye-VAT (Value Added Tax), amafutha angaphansi kwePetroleum Products Tax (ISP), yingakho intengo yawo ihlanganisa u-60% wentela.
