在两部门哈里斯-托达罗模型中分析特定部门最低工资的归宿,发现除传统替代效应外,内生失业产生额外影响,并利用墨西哥数据通过一般均衡计算表明资本承担了大部分失业收入损失。

Abstract

In this paper we explore the incidence of a sector-specific minimum wage in a two-sector Harris-Todaro model with intersectorally mobile capital. In addition to the output and substitution effects in Harberger's tax incidence analysis, an additional effect reflecting the endogenously generated unemployment arises in the Harris-Todaro case. We also explore the functional incidence issue numerically for Mexico by using general equilibrium computational techniques. In a number of the calculations reported, capital more than bears the income loss from unemployment caused by the sector-specific minimum wage.
