d) 3%

Explanation:

The difference between the consumer and producer value is $40,000

However, the difference between the transaction and producer value is $25,000

So, tax rate that will result in unconsummated transaction is 3% ($15,300) which is the closest number to the difference between consumer/producer and producer/transaction results
