1 Compute for Equilibrium Tax

Taking advantage of snw_find_tax_rate from the PrjOptiSNW Package, this function solves for equilibrium tax rate.

1.1 Parameter Controls

clear all;    
mp_params = snw_mp_param('default_docdense');
% mp_params = snw_mp_param('default_dense');
% mp_params = snw_mp_param('default_base');
% mp_params = snw_mp_param('default_small');
mp_params('beta') = 0.95;
xi=0.651; % Proportional reduction in income due to unemployment (xi=0 refers to 0 labor income; xi=1 refers to no drop in labor income)
b=1; % Unemployment insurance replacement rate (b=0 refers to no UI benefits; b=1 refers to 100 percent labor income replacement)       
mp_params('xi') = xi;
mp_params('b') = b;
mp_controls = snw_mp_control('default_test');

Parameters for COVID related Costs:

% Average check per household, given COVID actual policy payment schedule
% And given distribution. The number is from averaging over the actual
% allocations given distribution.
Covid_checks_per_capita = 18.7255856*100/62502;
% Covid_checks_per_capita = 0;
% which tax parameter to change a2 is the deafult, a0 shifts max tax rate
bl_adjust_a0 = false;
bl_load_existing = false;

Graph Controls etc:

mp_controls('bl_timer') = true;
mp_controls('bl_print_vfi') = false;
mp_controls('bl_print_vfi_verbose') = false;
mp_controls('bl_print_ds') = false;
mp_controls('bl_print_ds_verbose') = false;
mp_controls('bl_print_find_tax_rate') = true;
mp_controls('bl_print_find_tax_rate_verbose') = true;

1.2 Solve for New Tax Rate

Solve for Equilibrium Tax rate that clears government costs and income. In the extreme bounding exercise, we assume the government will pay COVID costs all in one year. This is to test whether an extreme tax scenario will lead to changes in allocation results.

Given the checks that the government hands out and the taxes imposed, individual resources post-tax are different in 2020. Households’ savings decisions in 2020 vary with taxes and checks. However, the policy function post 2020 shifts back to thte previous non-COVID world’s policy function because the COVID shock is an one period surprise shock.

a2 = snw_find_tax_rate(mp_params, mp_controls, Covid_checks_per_capita, bl_adjust_a0, bl_load_existing);
