The incidence of VAT evasion
Asatryan, Zareh; Gomtsyan, David - 2020
Who benefits from the evasion of value added taxes (VAT)? Using a reform that enforced VAT on previously non-compliant large retailers in Armenia, we estimate a onethird passthrough of the tax burden on prices. This suggests that pre-enforcement evasion rents were broadly shared with consumers...

A tale of two tails : commuting and the fuel price response in driving
Gillingham, Kenneth; Munk-Nielsen, Anders - 2017
distributional effects hamper political acceptance. These distributional effects are especially important in transport, the fastest … lower and upper tails of the work distance distribution. We further estimate the causal effect of public transport - a … critical determinant of the upper tail - and show how public transport access can both reconcile differences in fuel price …
