This book was released on 2015-04-30 with total page 316 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Tobacco use has declined because of measures such as high taxes on tobacco products and bans on advertising, but worldwide there are still more than one billion people who regularly use tobacco, including many who purchase products illicitly. By contrast to many other commodities, taxes comprise a substantial portion of the retail price of cigarettes in the United States and most other nations. Large tax differentials between jurisdictions increase incentives for participation in existing illicit tobacco markets. In the United States, the illicit tobacco market consists mostly of bootlegging from low-tax states to high-tax states and is less affected by large-scale smuggling or illegal production as in other countries. In the future, nonprice regulation of cigarettes - such as product design, formulation, and packaging - could in principle, contribute to the development of new types of illicit tobacco markets. Understanding the U.S. Illicit Tobacco Market reviews the nature of illicit tobacco markets, evidence for policy effects, and variations among different countries with a focus on implications for the United States. This report estimates the portion of the total U.S. tobacco market represented by illicit sales has grown in recent years and is now between 8.5 percent and 21 percent. This represents between 1.24 to 2.91 billion packs of cigarettes annually and between $2.95 billion and $6.92 billion in lost gross state and local tax revenues. Understanding the U.S. Illicit Tobacco Market describes the complex system associated with illicit tobacco use by exploring some of the key features of that market - the cigarette supply chain, illicit procurement schemes, the major actors in the illicit trade, and the characteristics of users of illicit tobacco. This report draws on domestic and international experiences with the illicit tobacco trade to identify a range of possible policy and enforcement interventions by the U.S. federal government and/or states and localities.

Book excerpt: The design and implementation of effective policies to control the contraband market requires a thorough understanding of the scope of the problem and the forces that produced it and maintain it. [...] By reducing the price of cigarettes, the government intended to reduce the prof- itability of contraband tobacco and thus eliminate the crime associated with the black market.4 A marked decline in the volume of contraband seizures following the tax rollback suggests that the repeal reduced contraband traf- ficking until the early 2000s (Cunningham, 1996; RCMP, 2010b). [...] Another argument in support of tobacco taxes is the economic efficiency that can be gained by taxing goods that generate "negative externalities."11 Economic theory holds that when the parties to a transaction do not bear all of the costs of the transaction, more such transactions take place than if the parties incurred all of the costs associated with their transaction.12 The purpose of a tax on [...] The strategy also proposed higher tobacco taxes to reduce smoking prevalence in Canada to 20% of the population, and to reduce the number of cigarettes sold in Canada by 30% between 2001 and 2011. [...] The tax increases and percentage change in tax rates for each prov- ince are presented in figures 2 and 3. Taxes and the price of cigarettes The retail price of tobacco products is comprised of several components, including manufacturing and distribution costs, profit margins earned by producers, and excise taxes levied by federal and provincial governments.
