In order to calculate the burden of a comprehensive and progressive income tax falling on a certain income source, an … apportionment scheme for the entire tax burden has to be chosen. This raises the question of how to deal with losses, which is … relevant for Germany in view of the heavy losses from renting. Using micro data from tax statistics we analyze the income tax …

In this paper we utilise microsimulation techniques in the form of an income generation model and a tax/benefit model … results indicate that a more generous tax/benefit system, combined with a greater state burden of the cost of education over … in education. The methodology employed allows us to specifically analyse the impact of various components of the tax …

EUROMOD, the tax-benefit microsimulation model for the EU. We begin by presenting indicators for income inequality and at …-risk-of-poverty. We then provide a comparative decomposition of the redistributive effect of the tax-benefit systems across the EU. We … study how different Member States achieve various degrees of redistribution through different combinations of progressivity …

we utilize a dynamic microsimulation model developed for Ireland to simulate the impact of both an income contingent loan … system (ICL) and a graduate tax system from a fiscal and redistributional viewpoint and to analyze the repayment length under … the former system. Our results suggest that an ICL system would is more equitable, while the graduate tax system would be …
