Stochastic taxation and asset pricing in dynamic general equilibrium
نویسنده
چکیده
Tax rates have fluctuated considerably since federal income taxes were introduced in the U.S. in 1913. This paper analyzes the effects of stochastic taxation on asset prices in a dynamic general equilibrium model. Stochastic taxation affects the after-tax returns of both risky and safe assets. Whenever taxes change, bond and equity prices adjust to clear the asset markets. These price adjustments affect assets with long durations, such as equities and long-term bonds, more than short-term assets. Under plausible conditions, investors require higher term and equity premia as compensation for the risk introduced by tax changes. r 2005 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.

متن کاملImplementation of VAT on Iran banking services in the context of dynamic stochastic general equilibrium model
In the Value Added Tax (VAT) system some goods and services, such as banking services, are exempted from taxes. Based on theoretical foundations, exempt treatment leads to several distortions and inefficiencies in the economy. In order to understand the importance of exemption on macroeconomic fluctuations as well as the fundamental role of financial intermediaries in economy shocks, this study...
متن کاملDynamics of Housing Prices and Economic Fluctuations in Iran with the Approach of Dynamic Stochastic General Equilibrium (DSGE)
This paper studies the relationship between housing prices and business cycles in Iran. Since housing has a dual nature, that is, both private and capital nature, it can play an important role in investment costs and economic growth and incite other manufacturing sectors in the country. In this paper, housing prices and business cycles have been used to measure housing as a collateral, which is...
متن کاملMoney Growth Rules in an Emerging Small Open Economy with an informal sector
This paper is concerned with the saddle-path stability of monetary growth rules in a two-country two-sector dynamic stochastic general equilibrium model. Alongside standard features of emerging economies, such as a combination of producer and local currency pricing for exports, fiscal dominance and oil exports, this model also incorporates informal labour and production sectors and examines how...
متن کاملMacroeconomic Risks and Asset Pricing: Evidence from a Dynamic Stochastic General Equilibrium Model
We study the relation between macroeconomic fundamentals and asset pricing through the lens of a state of the art dynamic stochastic general equilibrium (DSGE) model considered in Christiano, Trabandt and Walentin (2011). We provide a full-information Bayesian estimation of the model using macro variables and extract three fundamental shocks to the economy through the model: neutral technology ...
