This paper describes IZAΨMOD, the policy microsimulation model of the Institute for the Study of Labor (IZA). The model uses household microdata from the German Socio-Economic Panel Study and firm data from the German linked employer-employee dataset LIAB. IZAΨMOD consists of three components:...

Die in Aussicht gestellten Steuererleichterungen beherrschen seit Amtsantritt der neuen Bundesregierung die politische Diskussion. Die vorliegende Studie enthält eine Simulation der mutmaßlichen Auswirkungen einer Umsetzung des von der FDP neu vorgeschlagenen Fünf-Stufen-Konzepts auf den...

There is still considerable dispute about the magnitude of labor supply elasticities. While differences in micro and macro estimates are recently attributed to frictions and adjustment costs, we show that relatively low labor supply elasticities derived from microeconometric models can also be...

There is still considerable dispute about the magnitude of labor supply elasticities. While differences in estimates especially between micro and macro models are recently attributed to frictions and adjustment costs, we show that the variation in elasticities derived from structural labor...
