Optimal ( Capital ) - Taxation and ( Female ) - Labor Force Participation – The Importance of Labor Market Flows ∗
This paper asks how good actual US-fiscal policy was on average and over the cycle in the last 40 years compared to a Ramsey-optimal policy of a frictional labor market model. In our model labor taxes are intertemporally distortive, making the trade-off between capital and labor taxes interesting. Quantitatively, (optimal) taxation results hinge upon an estimate of the intratemporal elasticity ...
متن کاملThe Effects of Transaction Costs on Labor Market Participation and Earnings: Evidence from Rural Philippine Markets
The paper aims to measure transaction costs and its effects on labor market participation and on wage earnings.

To analyze such interaction we construct a search-theoretic model where labor market participation, labor market outcomes and crime are determined jointly. The model is calibrated to US data focusing on females. The main finding is that changes affecting the labor market, s...
