Which of the following most accurately describes the problem?

FUEL tax cost Exeter Transport Department £27,500 in 1953-54, compared with 18,500 in 1947-48. Unless the duty is relieved, the transport undertaking will be a burden on the rates for some time, states the general manager. It is estimated that had the tax stayed at its pre-war rate, one or more of the three fares increases since 1943 would have been unnecessary.
