Atkinson and Stiglitz Theorem with Endogenous Human Capital Accumulation
Recently, several papers have re-examined the so called production efficiency theorem and the Atkinson and Stiglitz theorem on commodity taxes in the optimal taxation literature. Naito (1998) showed that indirect redistribution through production distortion or consumption distortion can Pareto-improve welfare and that the two theorems do not necessarily hold when different factors are imperfect...

متن کاملHuman Capital Accumulation and Endogenous Public Expenditures
In this paper, we present an overlapping generations model where individuals accumulate human capital through formal schooling. We model the role of the public sector in schooling as one of collecting taxes from households and providing inputs to the learning technology. Public expenditures on schools are determined endogenously. Under plausible restrictions, our model's predictions qualitative...
متن کاملOptimal accumulation in an endogenous growth setting with human capital
Optimal Accumulation in an Endogenous Growth Setting with Human Capital This paper considers a three-overlapping-generations model of endogenous growth wherein human capital is the engine of growth. It first contrasts the laissez-faire and the optimal solutions. Three possible accumulation regimes are distinguished. Then it discusses a standard set of tax-transfer instruments that allow for dec...
متن کاملIndirect Taxation and Redistribution: The Scope of the Atkinson-Stiglitz Theorem
The Atkinson-Stiglitz Theorem states that if labor is weakly separable from goods in household utility functions, differential commodity taxation should not be not part of an optimal redistributive tax system. This Theorem, which is arguably the most policy-relevant result to come out of the optimal income tax literature, has come under considerable scrutiny in the literature. We consider how r...
