The objective of the theory of public finance is to determine the
optimal scales of government interventions or expenditures in
different areas, and the optimum modes of financing these
expenditures. The problems that governments handle are complex, and
this makes the theory of public finance challenging. It is
continuously searching for better, more acceptable and
easier-to-implement solutions to problems. This book, now in its
second edition, examines the major theories of public finance,
starting with fundamental principles, and explains how government
decisions are taken on the basis of the guidelines based on these
theories. This new edition includes updated data throughout,
including newly revised tax slabs. This book exposes students to
various facets of public finance to help develop analytical
frameworks to: Address issues of efficient allocation of resources
between private, public and mixed good. Ensure equitable
distribution of the tax burden among individuals. Find ways of
minimizing the inefficiency of the tax structure. Study the
statutory and economic incidence of different types of taxes.
Examine the implications of government borrowing. Develop a
rationale of distributing economic or fiscal responsibilities and
tax powers among different tiers of government. The book makes
understanding the subject easier by developing simple mathematical
models to derive major results in each of the above areas, and by
explaining the economics behind the results in detail. The concepts
are illustrated with the help of simple examples taken from the
Indian economy. Moreover, the book assesses India's economic
policies in the light of the theories discussed. Another
distinguishing feature is that it contains a large number of review
questions and numerical problems on every topic discussed to help
students apply the techniques learnt, and thereby, develop a sound
understanding of the subject.
