Heterogeneous Mark-ups, Demand Composition, and the Inequality-Growth Relation
We explore the relationship between inequality and demand structure in an endogenous growth model where consumers expand consumption along a hierarchy of needs and desires. The consumption hierarchy is captured by non-homothetic preferences implying that the shape of the demand curves for various goods depends on the distribution of income. This setting enables us to study a mechanism that so f...
متن کاملEndogenous Cartel Formation with Heterogeneous Firms∗
In the context of an infinitely repeated capacity-constrained price game, we endogenize the composition of a cartel when firms are heterogeneous in their capacities. When firms are sufficiently patient, there exists a stable cartel involving the largest firms. A firm with sufficiently small capacity is not a member of any stable cartel. When a cartel is not all-inclusive, colluding firms set a ...

متن کاملCorporate effective tax rates in Asian countries
This paper aims to (a) calculate Devereux and Griffith’s (2003) forward-looking effective tax rates for 12 Asian countries over a span of 30 years, (b) show the impact of tax holidays on the effective tax rate in Asian countries, and (c) empirically explore the possibility of tax competition among Asian countries. Through relevant analyses, I arrive at three key conclusions. First, while small ...
متن کاملAn Analysis of Effective Marginal Tax Rates in Quebec
This article draws up a portrait of effective marginal tax rates (EMTRs) on labour income in Quebec. It aims at allowing a better understanding of the impact of tax policy on the behavior of economic agents. Using an accounting microsimulation model that reproduces the system of taxes and transfers in 2002 Quebec, we measure the EMTRs that result from the interaction of the mechanisms of income...
