This book was released on 2014-12-31 with total page 75 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In recent days, there is an active discussion on the size of the social welfare expenditures. We need to evaluate first on the efficiency of current fiscal expenditure, because the source of the government expenditure is mostly financed by tax. Specifically, we need to investigate whether the expenditure properly attain its original objective, the effectiveness of the short- and long-term expenditures, and the appropriateness of the size of the government expenditures. In this research, we investigated the burden of net-tax by income decile group. The net tax is defined as the difference between taxes and benefits. A micro-simulation model for the tax-benefit model is started to be developed with the basis of this research. Major findings can be summarized as follows. The overall average amount of the market income per month is 3,430 thousand Won. The monthly amount for the first income decile is 210 thousand Won, 2,830 Won for the fifth dcecile, and 8,920 thousand Won for the richest decile. Private transfer varies according to the income decile groups. It is 100 thousand Won for the first decile group, 110 thosand Won for the fifth decile group, and 220 thousand Won for the tenth income decile group. On the other hand, the public transfers are heavily concentrated on the lowest income decile group. 380 thousand Won per month for the lowest income decile group. 220 thousand Won for the second lowest income decile group, 130 thousand Won for the third income decile group. For the richest income decile, the amount of the public transfer per month is only 60 thousand Won per month. Thanks to the public transfers, the total income from the lowest income decile group tose to 800 thousand Won, and 1,610 won for the second income decile group. The amount of the public transfer decreases as the income increase, it is clear that the public transfers serve as a useful policy instrument for the income redistribution. Regarding income tax burden, the overall burden per household is 130 thousand Won per household. By income deciile, it is zero or very close to zero for the income decile up to the foth decile group, but the tenth (richest) income decile group paid 400 thousand Won per month. These figures are close to Sung Myong-jae et al. (2010) but slightly lower than those of Park Ki-baek (2010). One reason why we have this kind of result is due to the fact that almost lower half of the workers are not paying income taxes. For the social security burden is concerned, the average burden per month is 350 thousand Won. It is 30 thousand Won for the lowest income decile group, 60 thousand Won for the second decile group, and the highest income decile group pays 420 thousand Won per month. The average magnitude for the disposable income is 3,360 thousand Won per month. It is 750 thousand Won for the lowest income decile, 1,530 thousand Won for the second lowest income decile group, 2,920 thousand Won for the fifth income decile group, and 3,360 thousand Won for the highest income decile group. The overall burden for the value-added tax is 180 thousand Won per month. 80 thousand Won for the lowest income decile group, 110 thousand Won for the second lowest income group, 170 thousand Won for the fifth decile group, and 330 thousand Won for the highest income decile group. The benefit distribution of the in-kind social benefits by decile can be summarized as follows: 320 thousand Won for the lowest income decile group, 290 thousand Won for the second lowest income deciles group, whereas the amount for the fifth income decile and above is 510-570 thousand Won and is quite stable.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The rapid emergence of East Asia as an important geopolitical-economic entity has been one of the most visible and striking changes in the international economy in recent years. With that emergence has come an increased need for understanding the problems of interdependence. As a step toward meeting this need, the National Bureau of Economic Research joined with the Korea Development Institute to sponsor this volume, which focuses on the complexities of tax reform in a global economy. Experts from Taiwan, Korea, the Philippines, Japan, and Thailand, as well as the United States, Canada, and Israel examine the major tax programs of the 1980s and their domestic and international economic effects. The analyses reveal similarities between the United States and countries in East Asia in political constraints on policy making, and taken together they show how growing interdependence interacts with domestic economic and political concerns to affect issues as politically vital as tax reform. Economists, policymakers, and members of the business community will benefit from these studies.

Download or read book Natural Resource Taxation in Mexico Some Considerations written by Ms. Alpa Shah and published by International Monetary Fund. This book was released on 2021-10-18 with total page 36 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Mexico has large extractive industries and it traditionally has raised sizable fiscal revenues from the oil and gas sector. A confluence of factors—elevated commodity prices, financial challenges of the state-owned oil company Pemex, and revenue needs for financing social and public investment spending over the medium term—suggest that a review of Mexico’s taxation regimes for natural resources would be opportune, against the backdrop of a comprehensive approach to tackling Mexico’s challenges. This paper identifies opportunities for redesigning mining taxation to increase somewhat the revenue intake while maintaining the favorable investment profile of the sector. It also discusses recent reforms to the oil and gas fiscal regime and future reform considerations, with attention to the attractiveness of investment on commercial terms—an issue that should be placed in the context of an overall reform of Pemex’s business strategy and possibly of the energy sector more generally.

Download or read book The Role and Design of Net Wealth Taxes in the OECD written by Collectif and published by OECD. This book was released on 2018-04-16 with total page 112 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This report examines and assesses the current and historical use of net wealth taxes, defined as recurrent taxes on individual net assets, in OECD countries. It provides background on the use of wealth taxes over time in OECD countries as well as on trends in income and wealth inequality. It then assesses the case for and against the use of a net wealth tax to raise revenues and reduce inequality, based on efficiency, equity and tax administration considerations. The effects of personal capital income taxes and taxes on wealth transfers are also discussed to understand how these taxes interact with net wealth taxes. Finally, the report looks at practical tax design issues and shows that the way a net wealth tax is designed can have a significant impact on the effectiveness and fairness of the tax. The report concludes with a number of practical tax policy recommendations regarding net wealth taxes.

Book excerpt: Over the past three decades, South Korea has moved along a path of strong economic growth and political democratization, attracting worldwide attention and providing valuable lessons for other developing economies. Yet Korea still must grapple with many intractable problems fueled by its rapid industrialization and uneven growth, including unbalanced distribution of wealth, concentrated economic power, and adversarial relationships between management and labor. Within the context of these sweeping changes, this volume explores options for economic and social institutional reform in Korea. Drawing on models of economic development from Japan, the United States, and Europe, a distinguished group of Asian and Western scholars relates the experiences of previously industrialized economies to each facet of Koreas economic system, including national management; taxation and banking; land ownership and use; trade and industrial strategy; and relations among business ownership, management, and labor. In so doing, the contributors provide valuable insights and fresh proposals for a viable model of social and economic modernization. Throughout the volume, the contributors emphasize the importance of Koreas cultural heritage-not only in explaining the nations recent growth but also as a key element of its continued success. By providing an overview of the evolution and interaction of Korean economic, political, and sociocultural institutions, the contributors make clear how these structures mediate the movement between cultural values and economic progress.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The new 4th edition of Seider’s 'Product and Process Design Principles : Synthesis, Analysis and Design' covers content for process design courses in the chemical engineering curriculum, showing how process design and product design are inter-linked and why studying the two is important for modern applications. A principal objective of this new edition is to describe modern strategies for the design of chemical products and processes, with an emphasis on a systematic approach. This fourth edition presents two parallel tracks : (1) product design ("what to make"), and (2) process design ("how to make"), with an emphasis on process design. Process design instructors can show easily how product designs lead to new chemical processes. Alternatively, product design can be taught in a separate course subsequent to the process design course."--adapted from description on publisher web site.
