    The Efficiency of the Government's Revenue Projections and a Political Cycle
    要旨
    This paper evaluates the Japanese fiscal authority’s revenue projections from 1960 to 2020 using real-time data and finds that its projections are inefficient and have a significant bias. The underprediction of revenue is gmore common and the fiscal authority’s loss function is estimated to be asymmetric. By correcting the forecasts based on the results of forecast evaluations, this paper finds that the out-of-sample accuracy of the projections could be significantly improved in real time, with a magnitude up to 10 percent in root mean squared errors (RMSE).

    Tax Transparency and Social Welfare: The Role of Government Commitment

    [Paper]
    要旨
    Although transparency has long been held as the key principle of taxation, recent behavioral public finance theory has shown that it may reduce social welfare as inattention can alleviate behavioral distortions. This paper extends this analysis by modeling inattention as a noise in the tax rate signal received by Bayesian citizens. In equilibrium, we find that transparency will improve social welfare by ensuring the government’s ability to commit to a fairly low tax rate that is socially optimal. Moreover, this model yields new sufficient statistics
    formulas that inform whether a policy effort to ensure tax transparency is socially worthwhile.

    Takeovers and taxes: Estimates from a two-sided matching model

    要旨
    Taxes can affect the efficient working of the market for corporate takeover. Tax implications from takeovers depend on joint characteristics of firms involved in reorganization but sorting among firms render the assessment of tax influence difficult. We take advantage of the development in econometrics of matching models and estimates a model that explicitly account for sorting behaviors. We examine a sample of M&As transactions between publicly-traded corporations in Japan from 1996 to 2018. Our estimates thus far suggest a limited influence of losses carried forward and debt finance. The analytical framework in our paper can be extended to cross-border M&As and other issues in public economics.

    Pareto-Improving Minimum Corporate Taxation (joint with Shafik Hebous)
    要旨
      The recent international agreement on a minimum effective corporate tax rate marks a profound change in global tax arrangements. The appropriate level of that minimum, however, has been, and remains, extremely contentious. This paper explores the strategic responses to a minimum tax, which—–the policy objective being to change the rules of tax competition game–—are critical for assessing the design and welfare impact of, and prospects for, this fundamental
    policy innovation. Analysis and calibration plausibly suggest sizable scope for minima that are Pareto-improving, benefiting low tax countries as well as high tax, relative to the uncoordinated equilibrium.

    Understanding Misreporting: New Evidence from Responses to a Housing Transaction Tax (joint work withZiying Fan,, Hang Zhang) [Paper]

    要旨
    Using proprietary data from a large real estate brokerage company that records both true and reported prices of its housing transactions, this paper provides new evidence of misreporting. Cross-sectionally, we document a series of stylized facts of misreporting featured by a novel three-segment reporting pattern. Dynamically, we show that underreporting could negatively respond to the tax rate, which implies that the tax erosion effect emphasized by the bulk of the literature could be lessened due to less underreporting among those remaining transactions. All these facts are reconcilable by a simple model that depicts the tradeoff between tax-saving and misreporting costs.

    地方分与税制度導入以前の都市財政

    要旨
    本研究では,市政専門図書館が有する都市歳入歳出決算書のデータを用い,中小都市財政を対象に地方分与税制度導入以前の1939年度までの歳出入の特徴を明らかにした。得られた知見は次の通りである。歳入においては,市税がその中心であった。市税に次いで中心的な歳入項目であったのは市債・公債であった。分析対象期間中にいくつか大きな変動が見られるが,それらの背景には高利債借換と時局匡救事業があった。歳出においては,教育費や小学校費といった小学校運営のための経費が非常に大きかった。これらに次いで大きかった経費は市債費・公債費であったが,高利債借換がその変動に大きく寄与していた。

    Stairway to Heaven? Selection into Entrepreneurship, Income Mobility and
    Firm Performance (joint with Toni Juuti and Tuomas Matikka) [Paper]

    要旨
    Using comprehensive full-population panel data from Finland, we provide evidence on selection into entrepreneurship and the dynamic implications of establishing a new business. We document that individuals at the very top of the personal income distribution are much more likely to start a new incorporated business compared to others. There is no similar selection based on parental income, but more than half of new entrepreneurs have entrepreneurial parents. The average income gains associated with entrepreneurship over comparable wage earners ten years after starting the business are roughly 20% and very similar across both personal and parental income distributions. However, key firm-level outcomes such as growth and productivity are positively related with personal income. We show supportive evidence that this finding can be rationalized by both ability and liquidity. In contrast, we find no significant differences in firm outcomes by parental income or parental background in entrepreneurship. Finally, we show that both selection and income gains from entrepreneurship are reflected in the share of entrepreneurs at the top of the distribution.
