Microsimulation based on income tax statistics may be useful in tax reform discussions. Unfortunately, access to … microsimulation, we compare both methods. Investigating tax scale effects by the group model leads to very good results. Determining … the financial effects of modified tax bases, the deviation from the microsimulation results increases especially if tax …

We look at the theory of arbitrage with taxation under certainty. The tax scale in our model is not linear. Under the … premise that tax scale is convex, we analyze prices that do not exhibit arbitrage opportunities. It turns out that there are … portfolio is bounded from above and cannot increase infinitely. In a model with a linear tax scale such a bounded arbitrage …

We study the effect of tax policy on stock market returns in the United States, Germany, and the United Kingdom using … GARCH models and a unique daily dataset of legislative tax changes during the period 1 December 1978 to 31 January 2018. We … find that days of discretionary tax legislation during all stages of the process often matter for returns, both in terms of …

We characterize the second-best allocation in a Mirrleesian optimal tax model where agents differ in multiple … dimensions and the planner can tax multiple goods non-linearly. We develop a new method that allows us to solve the partial … properties of the optimum. First, the optimal tax system is described by a multidimensional version of Diamond’s (1998) and Saez …

This paper studies the design of tax systems that implement a planner's second-best allocation in a market economy. An … example shows that the widely used Mirrleesian (1976) tax system cannot implement all incentive-compatible allocations … tax system. However, this tax system is often undesirable since it severely restricts the choice space of agents in the …
