Book Synopsis A Guide to Tax Policy Analysis by : United States. Congress. Joint Economic Committee
Download or read book A Guide to Tax Policy Analysis written by United States. Congress. Joint Economic Committee and published by . This book was released on 2000 with total page 30 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The analysis of tax data is a time intensive and complicated process. Much time and effort are spent collecting income and tax data, compiling data sets and running statistical analyses. However, it appears that relatively little time and effort are spent actually understanding the data and how best to present results to the public of analyses of using tax data. This is evident in the overuse of averages and the simplistic classification of taxpayers into income ranges and quintiles by tax distribution tables that are often highly publicized. This study shows that the link between income and tax liability is much more tenuous that [i.e. than] that often presumed and that a variety of other factors can greatly affect tax liability. Specifically, this report finds that, among other things: Over 22 percent of all 1995 tax returns claimed zero tax liability--for calendar year 2000 ... Over 3 million tax payers in the forth quintile pay more in federal income taxes than 4.1 million taxpayers classified in the fifth quintile.

Download or read book Crs Report for Congress written by Jane G. Gravelle and published by BiblioGov. This book was released on 2013-11 with total page 36 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Distributional issues often lie at the center of tax policy debates. Distributional analysis may address several issues: How should the tax burden be distributed or, are progressive (increasing as a share of income as income rises) taxes justified? What is the estimated distribution of the current system? How does a particular proposal change that distribution? Unlike many analyses that study optimal behavior related to allocative issues and economic efficiency, economic analysis cannot be used to answer the questions of how the tax burden should be distributed. Such an answer would depend on social preferences. Economic analysis can, however, identify trade-offs and frame the issue analytically. For example, a number of plausible answers to this question could justify progressive tax structures. Methodological issues, such as the income classifier, the unit of analysis, and assumptions regarding incidence all affect the estimates of the distribution of the current tax burden. Yet all show a similar qualitative result: the federal tax system is progressive throughout its range, although it tends to get much flatter at the top. This pattern is primarily due to the individual income tax, which is quite progressive, and actually provides subsidies at lower income levels. The other major tax is ...

Specifically, this report finds that, among other things: - Over 22 percent of all 1995 tax returns claimed zero tax liability - For calendar year 2000, the JCT estimates that 48.7 million out of 140.2 million taxpayers overall will have zero or negative federal income tax liability. - In four out of the five income groups examined, a majority of taxpayers had tax liabilities that were either 25 percent greater than the average or 25 percent less than the average tax liability for each income group. - In comparing federal income tax liabilities, distribution tables often misclassify and group millions of taxpayers into quintiles in which they have little tax liability in common. - Approximately 2.2 million taxpayers in the third quintile pay more in federal income taxes than 5.4 million taxpayers classified in the fourth quintile. - Over 3 million taxpayers in the fourth quintile pay more in federal income taxes than 4.1 million taxpayers classified in the fifth quintile.

Book Synopsis Distributional Implications of Government Tax and Expenditure Policies by : International Monetary Fund
Download or read book Distributional Implications of Government Tax and Expenditure Policies written by International Monetary Fund and published by International Monetary Fund. This book was released on 1988-01-01 with total page 32 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This paper examines the methodological issues arising in the measurement of the distributional impact of tax and expenditure policies, with emphasis on the problems related to the measurement of the impact of adjustment programs on the welfare of the poor. Both conceptual and empirical considerations suggest that public expenditures are a more potent instrument for distributional purposes than taxes but are also more difficult to analyze and evaluate. The paper concludes that more research is needed toward a better measurement of expenditure benefits.
Book Synopsis Tax Distribution and Revenue Analyses for Individual Income Taxes by : Anthony N. Treviso
Download or read book Tax Distribution and Revenue Analyses for Individual Income Taxes written by Anthony N. Treviso and published by Nova Science Publishers. This book was released on 2011 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Distributional effects are often central policy issues in debates over tax legislation. Although economic analysis can be used to estimate the distribution of the tax system, or a tax change, it cannot be used to provide a normative or prescriptive analysis. Descriptive analyses indicate the expected effects of policies, but normative analyses indicate the optimal policy. This book discusses different philosophies about how the tax burden should be distributed, and what those philosophies imply for the shape of the tax system. It addresses the question of the justifications for a progressive tax system, as well as the measures that can be used to characterise the distributional effects of tax changes.
Book Synopsis The Economics of Tax Policy by : Alan J. Auerbach
Download or read book The Economics of Tax Policy written by Alan J. Auerbach and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2017 with total page 401 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Debates about the optimal structure for tax policies and tax rates hardly cease among public, policy, or academic audiences. These have only grown more heated in the United States as the gap between incomes of the wealthiest 1 percent and the rest of the population continue to diverge. Tax research perhaps has not fully kept pace with the relentless demand of various interests to adjust tax policy. Nonetheless, specialists in the economics of tax policy in recent years have profited from advances in economic theory, econometric measurements, and data quality and access that are beginning to allow a greater consensus on what are the real effects of tax policy and how government levies affect individuals and businesses. The volume edited by Professors Auerbach and Smetters represents an attempt to reduce the lag between the conduct of research on tax issues and its transmission to a broader public. The contributions would explore highly topical issues such as the effects of income tax changes on economic growth, the potential effects of capping certain tax expenditures, the economics of adjusted business tax policy, and environmental tax options. Other essays would investigate perennially important themes such as the conduct of tax administration, the growing role of the tax system on education policy, tax policy toward low-income families, capital gains and estate taxation, and tax policy for retirement savings. A final paper would examine three different options for fundamental tax reform"--

Book Synopsis A Distributional Analysis of an Environmental Tax Shift by : Gilbert E. Metcalf
Download or read book A Distributional Analysis of an Environmental Tax Shift written by Gilbert E. Metcalf and published by . This book was released on 1998 with total page 60 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: I use data from the 1994 Consumer Expenditure Survey as well as other sources to measure the distributional impact of green tax reforms and consumption tax reforms using both annual income and lifetime income approaches to rank households. A modest tax reform in which environmental taxes equal to 10% of federal receipts are collected has a negligible impact on the income distribution when the funds are rebated to households through reductions in the payroll tax and personal income tax. The degree of income shifting can be adjusted with changes in how the revenues are returned to households and it is possible to increase the progressivity of the tax system with an environmental tax reform. I then compare these reforms to a reform that shifts the tax base from income to consumption. In this case, it is difficult to maintain the level of progressivity that exists under the current income tax although ways exist by which the regressivity of the reform could be blunted. Whether the long term growth gains from consumption tax reform would offset the initial increase in regressivity remains to be determined. A shift to greater reliance on environmental taxes would reduce the progressivity of the tax system. This analysis indicates that reforms can be designed to preserve the existing income distribution. In fact, it appears to be easier to maintain distributional neutrality with a Green tax reform than with a comprehensive consumption tax reform
