The principal focus of the project has been on the microsimulation of individual behavior. Thus, this volume includes studies of individual responses to an over reduction in tax rates and to changes in the highest tax rates; a study of alternative tax treatments of the family; and studies of such specific aspects of household behavior as tax treatment of home ownership, charitable contributions, and individual saving behavior. Microsimulation techniques are also used to estimate the effects of alternative policies on the long-run financial status of the social security program and to examine the effects of alternative tax rules on corporate investment and of foreign-source income on overseas investment. The papers devoted to the development of general equilibrium simulation models to include an examination of the implications of international trade and capital flows, a study of the effects of capital taxation that uses a closed economy equilibrium model, and an examination of the effect of switching to an inflation-indexed tax system. In the volume's final paper, a life-cycle model in which individuals maximize lifetime utility subject to a lifetime budget constraint is used to simulate the effects of tax rules on personal savings. 410 0$aNational Bureau of Economic Research project report. 606 $aFiscal policy$zUnited States$xSimulation methods 606 $aTaxation$zUnited States$xSimulation methods 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aFiscal policy$xSimulation methods. 615 0$aTaxation$xSimulation methods. 676 $a339.5/25/0724 676 $a339.525 676 $a339.5250724 701 $aFeldstein$b Martin S$088785 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910458356903321 996 $aBehavioral simulation methods in tax policy analysis$9821202 997 $aUNINA
