Forecasting Capital Gains Realizations
As an input to its estimates of federal revenues, the Congressional Budget Office (CBO) requires an estimate of capital gains realizations in the current calendar year and forecasts of realizations for the next 10 years. The purpose of our study is to improve the accuracy of the current-year estimates. As background, we describe the models and methods that CBO now uses and briefly mention model...
متن کاملTaylor Expansion for the Entropy Rate of Hidden Markov Chains
We study the entropy rate of a hidden Markov process, defined by observing the output of a symmetric channel whose input is a first order Markov process. Although this definition is very simple, obtaining the exact amount of entropy rate in calculation is an open problem. We introduce some probability matrices based on Markov chain's and channel's parameters. Then, we try to obtain an estimate ...
متن کاملCross-base tax elasticity of capital gains
This paper studies the cross-base tax elasticity of capital gains realizations to labor income taxes when capital gains are taxed at a separate proportional tax rate. Using a longitudinal panel of over 265,000 individuals in Sweden, this paper shows in a regression kink design that labor income taxes affect capital gains at the extensive and intensive margins. An increase in the marginal labor ...
متن کاملThe Rate of Rényi Entropy for Irreducible Markov Chains
In this paper, we obtain the Rényi entropy rate for irreducible-aperiodic Markov chains with countable state space, using the theory of countable nonnegative matrices. We also obtain the bound for the rate of Rényi entropy of an irreducible Markov chain. Finally, we show that the bound for the Rényi entropy rate is the Shannon entropy rate.
متن کاملNew Evidence on the Tax Elasticity of Capital Gains
To enhance the transparency of CBO’s work and to encourage external review of that work, CBO’s working paper series includes both papers that provide technical descriptions of official CBO analyses and papers that represent original, independent research by CBO analysts. Working papers are not subject to CBO’s regular review and editing process. Papers in this series are available at http://go....
