Answer:

indirect tax

Step-by-step explanation:

Indirect taxes are taxes that can be transferred to other individuals, so that they pay them instead of the original taxpayer.

In this question, Alan should have paid the extra $10 in property taxes, but instead he transferred them to his tenants so that they were responsible for paying them.
