Behavioral Microsimulation Of A Dual Income Tax Reform: A Mixed-Logit Approach
Simulation studies of the economic impact of dual income taxes are almost always based on general equilibriummodels. They assume one representative household. Their results are sensitive to one behavioral parameter, the labor supply elasticity, which is assumed to be given a priori — instead of being estimated. This paper shows how to model the labor supply incentive effects of a Dual Income Ta...
متن کاملDistributional and Fiscal Effects of the German Tax Reform 2000 A Behavioral Microsimulation Analysis
In the year 2000, the German government passed the most ambitious tax reform in postwar German history aiming at a significant tax relief for households. Drawing on data of the GSOEP, we analyze the distributional and fiscal effects of the tax reform. Our analysis employs microsimulation techniques. Furthermore, we estimate behavioral effects of the tax reform using a discrete choice labor supp...
متن کاملIs the Italian Corporate Tax Reform Going to Reduce Firms’ Tax Burden? a Microsimulation Analysis
This paper analyses the impact of the corporate tax reform introduced in Italy at the beginning of 2004 on firms’ tax burden. For this purpose we develop a microsimulation model reproducing the Italian corporate tax system. The model is based on an integrated dataset combining ISTAT (Italian National Statistical Office) survey data and published accounts data for corporations, for the year 2000...
متن کاملMicrosimulation Modelling of Work-related Expenses: a New Approach
Based on a representative data set of more than 36,000 original tax report extracts, we develop a microsimulation model that calculates the fiscal impact of changes in the area of tax deductible work-related expenses, in particular expenses for travelling from private home to the place of work, in Germany. The new model allows a more accurate estimation of the fiscal impact of changes in the Ge...
