Der Beitrag berechnet die Aufkommensausfälle verschiedener Gestaltungsmodelle für eine steuerliche Forschungsförderung in Deutschland auf Basis eines Mikrosimulationsmodells. Die fiskalischen Kosten betragen zwischen 464 Mio. € und 5.701 Mio. €. Eine Erstattungsoption der Steuergutschrift...

With increasing numbers of young people participating in higher education in Ireland and a heavy reliance of higher education institutions on state funding, the introduction of an alternative finance system for Ireland has been muted over the past number of years. However, no study has been...

In this paper we utilise microsimulation techniques in the form of an income generation model and a tax/benefit model to estimate both the fiscal and net private return to education at a marginal level. This is carried out empirically using Irish data across the period 1987-2005 and is the first...

This report provides a selection of baseline results and headline indicators from the latest public version (I5.0+) of 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...

The Tax-Transfer-Simulation-Model (STSM) is a microsimulation model used for the empirical analysis of the effects of taxes, statutory social security contributions and social transfers on the distribution of incomes, labour supply decisions of private households, and their budgetary (fiscal)...

Using counterfactual microsimulations, Shapley decompositions of time change in inequalityand poverty indices make it possible to disentangle and quantify the relative effect of taxbenefitpolicy changes, compared to all other effects including shifts in the distribution ofmarket income. Using...

Jedes Steuer-, und Transfersystem ist nur so gut wie seine Adaptierungsfähigkeit an die sich laufend ändernden Rahmenbedingungen. Dieser Überzeugung folgend wurde am Österreichischen Institut für Familienforschung an der Universität Wien die Mikrosimulationsplattform TATRAS.at entwickelt....
