On modeling household labor supply with taxation
Bargain, Olivier (contributor) - 2007
Discrete choice models of labor supply easily account for nonlinearty and nonconvexity in budget sets caused by tax-benefit systems. As a result, they have become very popular for ex ante evaluations of policy reforms. In this paper, we question whether the degree of flexibility and the implicit...

Labor income responds differently to income-tax and payroll-tax reforms
Lehmann, Etienne; Marical, François; Rioux, Laurence - 2012
We estimate the responses of gross labor income with respect to marginal and average net-of-tax rates in France over the period 2003-2006. We exploit a series of reforms to the income-tax and payroll-tax schedules affecting individuals who earn less than twice the minimum wage. Our estimate for...

Female labor supply and child care in France
Choné, Philippe; Le Blanc, David; Robert-Bobée, Isabelle - 2003
We use French household data to estimate a structural model of female labor supply and use of paid child care outside the home. Child care costs are found to have little impact on the labor market participation decision of mothers. The model is used to study various policy issues. The influence...

Donni, Olivier - 2021
In this paper, we deal with female labour supply in the collective framework. We study married couples and start from the empirical observation that the husband's labour supply is generally fixed at full-time. We then show that, in this case, structural elements of the decision process, such as...

On Modeling Household Labor Supply with Taxation
Bargain, Olivier - 2021
Discrete-choice models provide a simple way of representing utility-maximizing labor supply decisions in the presence of highly nonlinear and possibly non-convex budget constraints. Thus, it is not surprising that they are so extensively used for ex-ante evaluation of tax-benefit reforms. The...
