In this paper, we analyze the impact of a tax policy change on social welfare by using jointly a collective model of … household labor supply and a microsimulation program of the French tax-benefit system. The collective approach allows studying … unobserved dimensions related to effort or intensity at work. We simulate an extended version of the British Working Family Tax …
