Poverty-Reducing Tax Reforms with Heterogeneous Agents

The poverty impact of indirect tax reforms is analyzed using sequential stochastic dominance methods.

Examples of such dimensions include household size and composition, temporal or spatial variation in price indices, and individual needs and "merits"
