Book Synopsis Tax Capacity and Growth by : Vitor Gaspar
Download or read book Tax Capacity and Growth written by Vitor Gaspar and published by International Monetary Fund. This book was released on 2016-12-02 with total page 40 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Is there a minimum tax to GDP ratio associated with a significant acceleration in the process of growth and development? We give an empirical answer to this question by investigating the existence of a tipping point in tax-to-GDP levels. We use two separate databases: a novel contemporary database covering 139 countries from 1965 to 2011 and a historical database for 30 advanced economies from 1800 to 1980. We find that the answer to the question is yes. Estimated tipping points are similar at about 123⁄4 percent of GDP. For the contemporary dataset we find that a country just above the threshold will have GDP per capita 7.5 percent larger, after 10 years. The effect is tightly estimated and economically large.

Book Synopsis Expanding Taxable Capacity and Reaching Revenue Potential by : Jeep Rojchaichaninthorn
Download or read book Expanding Taxable Capacity and Reaching Revenue Potential written by Jeep Rojchaichaninthorn and published by World Bank Publications. This book was released on 2012 with total page 40 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An effective tax system is fundamental for successful country development. The first step to understand public revenue systems is to establish some commonly agreed performance measurements and benchmarks. This paper employs a cross-country study to estimate tax capacity from a sample of 104 countries during 1994-2003. The estimation results are then used as benchmarks to compare taxable capacity and tax effort in different countries. Taxable capacity refers to the predicted tax-gross domestic product ratio that can be estimated with the regression, taking into account a country's specific economic, demographic, and institutional features. Tax effort is defined as an index of the ratio between the share of the actual tax collection in gross domestic product and the predicted taxable capacity. The authors classify countries into four distinct groups by their level of actual tax collection and attained tax effort. This classification is based on the benchmark of the global average of tax collection and a tax effort index of 1 (when tax collection is exactly the same as the estimated taxable capacity). The analysis provides guidance for countries with various levels of tax collection and tax effort.
Book Synopsis Building Tax Capacity in Developing Countries by : Juan Carlos Benitez
Download or read book Building Tax Capacity in Developing Countries written by Juan Carlos Benitez and published by International Monetary Fund. This book was released on 2023-09-19 with total page 33 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Tax capacity—the policy, institutional, and technical capabilities to collect tax revenue—is part of a deeper process of state building that is essential for achieving the sustainable development goals. This Staff Discussion Note shows that developing countries have made some progress in revenue mobilization during the past decades. However, much more is needed. We find that a staggering 9 percentage-point increase in the tax-to-GDP ratio is feasible through a combination of tax system reform and institutional capacity building. Achieving this calls for a holistic and institution-based approach that focuses on improving policy, administration and legal implementation of core taxes. The note offers practical lessons and guidance, based on IMF capacity building experience in this area.
Book Synopsis Political Institutions, State Building, and Tax Capacity by : Vitor Gaspar
Download or read book Political Institutions, State Building, and Tax Capacity written by Vitor Gaspar and published by International Monetary Fund. This book was released on 2016-12-02 with total page 33 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An empirical finding by Gaspar, Jaramillo and Wingender (2016) shows that once countries cross a tax-to-GDP threshold of around 123⁄4 percent, real GDP per capita increases sharply and in a sustained manner over the following decade. In this paper, we attempt via four case studies—Spain, China, Colombia, and Nigeria—to illustrate that the improvements in tax capacity have been part of a deeper process of state capacity building. We discuss the political conditions that supported tax capacity building, highlighting three important political ingredients: constitutive institutions, inclusive politics and credible leadership.
Book Synopsis State Institutions and Tax Capacity: An Empirical Investigation of Causality by : Olusegun Ayodele Akanbi
Download or read book State Institutions and Tax Capacity: An Empirical Investigation of Causality written by Olusegun Ayodele Akanbi and published by International Monetary Fund. This book was released on 2019-08-16 with total page 38 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Would better state institutions increase tax collection, or would higher tax collection help improve state institutions? In the absence of conclusive guidance from theory, this paper searches for an empirical answer to this question, using a panel dataset covering 110 non-resource-rich countries from 1996 to 2017. Employing a panel vector error correction model, the paper finds that tax capacity and state institutions cause and reinforce each other for a wide range of country groups. The bi-directional causality results suggest that developing tax capacity and building state institutions need to go hand in hand for best results, particularly in developing countries. Based on the impulse response analyses, the paper also finds that the causal effects in advanced economies are generally low in both directions, while in developing countries, both tax capacity and institutions shocks have larger positive impacts on institutions and tax capacity, respectively.
Book Synopsis Understanding Countries’ Tax Effort by : Mr.Ricardo Fenochietto
Download or read book Understanding Countries’ Tax Effort written by Mr.Ricardo Fenochietto and published by International Monetary Fund. This book was released on 2013-12-16 with total page 30 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This paper presents a model to determine the tax effort and tax capacity of 113 countries and the main variables on which they depend. The results and the model allow a clear determination of which countries are near their tax capacity and which are some way from it, and therefore, could increase their tax revenue. This paper also determines central factors on which tax capacity depends: the level of development, trade, education, inflation, income distribution, corruption, and the ease of tax collection.

Book Synopsis Tax Increment Financing (in Minnesota) by : James Noble
Download or read book Tax Increment Financing (in Minnesota) written by James Noble and published by DIANE Publishing. This book was released on 1997-04 with total page 119 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Since the late 1980's, the Minnesota Legislature has enacted important reforms to Tax Increment Financing (TIF), the development tool that enables cities and other jurisdictions to capture the additional taxes which are generated by a development project to finance up-front site preparation or acquisition costs. The purpose of the reforms was to limit the use of TIF to certain kinds of development projects and to eliminate abuses of the financing tool. While the amount of captured tax capacity grew by an average of 24%/yr. between 1984 and 1989, it slowed to just 2%/yr. between 1990 and 1995.

Book Synopsis Economic Growth and Fiscal Planning in New York by : William Duncombe
Download or read book Economic Growth and Fiscal Planning in New York written by William Duncombe and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2017-09-08 with total page 205 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In an era of federal deficits and struggling municipalities, states have emerged as the most significant governmental actors. But state governments face the major challenge of fiscal planning in the midst of economic change. Roy Bahl and William Duncombe tackle this challenge head-on. Using New York as a case study, they identify looming dangers for state revenue and expenditure planning.Bahl and Duncombe begin with the premise that one cannot separate an evaluation of fiscal performance from an evaluation of economic performance. Accordingly, they describe and analyze the patterns of population, employment, and personal income growth. Following this is a study of state and local government finances in New York since 1970 and a recounting of the fiscal adjustments that were taken in the face of slower and then faster growth in the economy.The authors conclude that based on current conditions, the state and its local governments are in for fiscal belt-tightening. They note that the state should take a comprehensive view in planning the development and retrenchment of its government sector. The book is thought-provoking, exhaustively researched, and sensibly written. Its lessons are applicable everywhere and should be read by all those seeking a route through the tangled thicket of government policy for economic growth.
