I would say "make up" and "account for" both work

Thank you so much!

Property taxes "account for" about 40 percent of the overall tax revenue the state collects.

Sounds better to me.

Using "make" sounds like the property taxes are people and/or an object physically "making" something.

 

Thank you very much!!
