These thirteen papers and accompanying commentaries are the first
fruits of an ongoing research project that has concentrated on
developing simulation models that incorporate the behavioral
responses of individuals and businesses to alternative tax rules
and rates and on expanding computational general equilibrium models
that analyze the long-run effects of changes on the economy as a
whole. The principal focus of the project has been on the
microsimulation of individual behavior. Thus, this volume includes
studies of individual responses to an over reduction in tax rates
and to changes in the highest tax rates; a study of alternative tax
treatments of the family; and studies of such specific aspects of
household behavior as tax treatment of home ownership, charitable
contributions, and individual saving behavior. Microsimulation
techniques are also used to estimate the effects of alternative
policies on the long-run financial status of the social security
program and to examine the effects of alternative tax rules on
corporate investment and of foreign-source income on overseas
investment. The papers devoted to the development of general
equilibrium simulation models to include an examination of the
implications of international trade and capital flows, a study of
the effects of capital taxation that uses a closed economy
equilibrium model, and an examination of the effect of switching to
an inflation-indexed tax system. In the volume's final paper, a
life-cycle model in which individuals maximize lifetime utility
subject to a lifetime budget constraint is used to simulate the
effects of tax rules on personal savings.
