Optimal taxes without commitment

Article Abstract:

A model representing a trade-off between tax plan revision value and revision benefit was devised to analyze the possibility of achieving optimal taxation in the absence of government commitment. It shows that the tax rate and the steady state capital vary in the second best tax plan when no commitment occurs. The model also shows that there exists positive limit taxes on capital.
