We present a general-equilibrium behavioural microsimulation model designed to assess long-run macroeconomic, fiscal … and social consequences of reforms to the tax and transfer system. The behaviour of labour supply is assessed along both …. General-equilibrium feedback effects are simulated by embedding microsimulation in a parsimonious macro model of a small open …

In particular, it includes the richness of the tax code by means of income tax and social … insurance contribution rate functions estimated using data from the EUROMOD microsimulation model. This feature allows in …

-accumulation of capital may result compared to the complete markets economy. We show that reducing somewhat the capital income tax … rate increases the capital stock and leads to a welfare gain. The complete elimination of the capital income tax, however …

, a well-known result is that the two tax systems are equivalent. Motivated by recent empirical evidence documenting … persistent return heterogeneity, we revisit this question. With heterogeneity, the two tax systems typically have opposite … regardless of their productivity, which expands the tax base, shifts the tax burden toward unproductive entrepreneurs, and raises …
