Capital Income Taxation (capital + income_taxation)
Selected AbstractsRegional Integration and the Co-ordination of Capital Income TaxationECONOMIC NOTES, Issue 1 2002Valeria De Bonis This paper addresses the question of the need for income tax harmonization in the context of regional integration. It analyses the international distortions and fiscal interdependence arising in the presence of tax rate differentials both under a theoretical and an empirical perspective, and with reference to actual experiences of harmonization attempts. Attention is also paid to the influence of the countries' size on the results, to the strategic behaviour of countries under different international taxations rules, and to the relationships with the countries excluded by the integration process. International tax uniformity does not appear to be the preferable solution, even if some form of concerted agreements might help in reducing inefficiencies deriving from taxation differentials. For instance, in the case of highly mobile factors, like financial capital, if the integrating countries apply the source principle and the interest rate is the same across them, the source-based tax rate on non residents must equal the residence country tax rate on residents. Such a rule would allow the countries to set autonomously their tax rate and, at the same time, eliminate cross-border effects. If there are more than two integrating countries, the tax rates on non residents should discriminate according to the internal tax rate of the residence country. (J.E.L.: H87, F20, H20).

Auerbach First page of article [source] Union Wage Setting and Capital Income Taxation in Dynamic General EquilibriumGERMAN ECONOMIC REVIEW, Issue 2 2001Thomas Aronsson This paper concerns the effects of capital income taxation in a dynamic general equilibrium framework with union wage setting, when households face taxes related to both labor and capital. One purpose is to characterize the general equilibrium solution. Another is to study the effects of increased capital income taxation , in terms of the responses in real wages, employment, capital stock, output and consumption , and relate these behavioral responses to the overall tax structure. We also derive a cost,benefit rule for the purpose of analyzing the welfare effects of a small shift from labor income taxation to capital income taxation.

It is shown that once international asset trade is allowed, in the presence of international technological asymmetries, a small country eventually leads to perfect specialization in our overlapping generations model. It is also shown that the residence-based tax has no effect on the specialization pattern while the source-based tax has a negative effect on capital accumulation and thereby it can affect the specialization pattern of the small country.
