A deflationary year lowers the bracket thresholds · case 04

A factor below one reduces thresholds, raising real tax.

Case contract

solve(base, factors): base is a list of statutory thresholds; factors are yearly inflation factors (decimal strings). For every year, a threshold is the base times the cumulative product of factors so far, rounded DOWN to a multiple of 50 (indexing always starts again from the unrounded base, never from a previously rounded value). A threshold may never fall below its previous year's value. Return the final-year thresholds.

Why this case matters

Tax computations hinge on which slice, threshold, ordering and rounding rule applies at each step; a misplaced boundary silently misstates liabilities.
