Choice of Occupation, Tax Incidence and Piecemeal Tax Revision
构建了一个工人因所得税扭曲而在两种职业间流动的模型,分析小规模税收修订的归宿与福利效应,发现工资效应可被忽略。
A model is presented where workers move between two different occupations in response to economic incentives that are distorted by an income tax. Wages assume equilibrium values that are affected by the tax parameters. Incidence and welfare effects of small tax revisions are analyzed with particular attention to the ro le of tax-induced wage changes. It is demonstrated that, within the e conomic setting of the model, such wage effects may be neglected in a ssessments of piecemeal tax revisions.
