i feel that here one point should be noted............

+I is responsible for lesser stability of acetate ion......right!!!!!!!
but it does not have any role for formate ion........for formate ion we have just one thing resonance stabilization........so.............

wat do we conclude :
+I in acetate ion makes it lesser stable

or putting it differently,

as the statement given in ques.
