the joint determination of the non-linear monitoring and tax schedules and the conditions under which these can be … implemented. Monitoring of labor effort reduces the distortions created by income taxation and raises optimal marginal tax rates …, possibly above 100 percent. The optimal intensity of monitoring increases with the marginal tax rate and the labor …

. This paper investigates the importance of incentives inherent in the tax-benefit system for the individual decision to take … incentives at the extensive margin measured by the Participation Tax Rate (PTR), particularly for low-income individuals. Work …

We study three budget-neutral reforms of the German tax and transfer system designed to improve work incentives for … people with low incomes: a feasible flat tax reform that provides a basic income which is equal to the current level of the … and full-time work, respectively. We estimate labor supply reactions and welfare effects using a microsimulation model …

microsimulation methods we use a computable general equilibrium model which incorporates a discrete choice model of labour supply to … reform on wages and unemployment. The simulation results show that general equilibrium wage reactions tend to mitigate labour …
