Alternative rebate rules in the provision of a threshold public good: An experimental investigation
This study reports the effects of rebate rules on voluntary contributions to a threshold public good. Rebate rules specify how excess contributions, over the threshold amount are distributed. We examine three rebate rules experimentally: a no rebate policy where excess contributions are discarded, a proportional rebate policy where excess contributions are rebated proportionally to an individua...

We restrict attention to games with "all-or-nothing" monitoring, in which in every period player i either perfectly observes player js contribution to the public good or gets no infor...

Using the Nash bargaining solution as the solution concept, the paper shows that the nature of individuals’ preferences over the public good and private good determines the nature of the tax regime. In particular, the paper characterizes conditions on preferences under which the Na...
