Tax incidence under oligopoly: a comparison of policy approaches

Article Abstract:

A study was conducted to analyze a methodology for evaluating tax incidence characterized by familiar forms of taxation in a general and analytical framework. A shift parameter in a generalized tax schedule was utilized to carry out the analysis under oligopoly. The study also examined multiple instruments within a tax structure and different dual policy approaches. Results indicated that the degree of tax shifting in an oligopoly is inversely correlated to the elasticity of the tax schedule.

Tax and subsidy incidence equivalence theories: experimental evidence from competitive markets

Article Abstract:

The tax incidence equivalence holds that the burden of a unit tax on buyers and sellers is independent of who actually pays the tax. This is often mistaken for economic incidence. A study testing the tax incidence equivalence and analogous theorem for subsidies, is presented.
