This paper describes IZAΨMOD, the policy microsimulation model of the Institute for the Study of Labor (IZA). The model …-employee dataset LIAB. IZAΨMOD consists of three components: First, a static module simulates the effects of a tax reform on the budget … distinguishes our model from most other microsimulation tools. A demand module takes into account possible restrictions of labor …

In the paper we describe in detail how to build linked CGE-microsimulation models (using fictitious data) following … distribution and poverty, although analysed within the same economy and under the same policy simulation. We then analyse in more …

Taking the general equilibrium effects into account has important implications … for the evaluation of a tax reform. The analysis shows that a personal income flat tax can indeed overcome the fundamental …
