Conditional Demands and Marginal Tax Reform
利用条件需求函数分析爱尔兰需求模式,克服传统需求分析忽视劳动供给影响的缺陷,并检验弱可分性对边际税制改革度量的影响。
This paper examines Irish demand patterns using conditional demand functions. This overcomes the problems faced by traditional demand analysis which neglects the influence of labour supply and thus assumes weak separability. The conditional approach allows for more exact tests of weak separability using more flexible functional forms than is possible when estimating an unconditional commodity demand–labour supply model. The impact of the conditioned demand responses and the relaxation of weak separability on measures of marginal tax reform is examined.
