Estimates from a consumer demand system: implications for the incidence of enviromental taxes

Article Abstract:

The distributional effects of increasing the gasoline tax, under a range of assumptions about how the revenue is recycled and for a range of different incidence measures are analyzed. The results suggest that using the additional gas tax revenue to fund labor tax cuts makes the policy substantially less regressive while using the revenue to fund lump-sum transfers actually makes it progressive.
