This book is concerned with some of the conceptual and practical
problems of measuring the changes in welfare of individuals and the
excess burdens arising from taxation. It provides an introductory
review of alternative concepts and practical approaches to the
measurement of welfare as well as providing a number of practical
examples of welfare analyses in a variety of contexts. The excess
burden of a tax is a central concept in economics. John Creedy
provides an introduction to various concepts of welfare change,
paying particular attention to the measurement issues involved. He
then applies the methods outlined to the measurement of marginal
tax reform and indirect tax reform, with empirical data taken from
Australia. He also examines the redistributive effect of price
changes in Australia between 1980 and 1995, and the effects of
inflation in New Zealand over the period 1993-1995. Finally, he
calculates the welfare costs of monopoly and measures the burdens
of carbon taxation and welfare. Measuring Welfare Changes and Tax
Burdens will be of interest to students and academics working in
the areas of public finance and public policy, as well as
economists working in government.
