Using a factor decomposition of the Gini coefficient we measure the contribution to inequality of direct monetary transfers to and from the Brazilian State. Among the transfers from the State are wages of public workers, pensions and social assistance; the transfers to the State are direct taxes....

The text presents estimate of the tax incidence, especially the indirect one, on the income of families according to data from the last Consumer Expenditure Survey (POF) of 2017-2018. For this purpose, the values of the taxes on income and equity calculated in the survey are used, as well as...

This text examines the distributive effects of fiscal policy in Brazil by considering it according to gender and race criteria. Based on the Brazilian Consumer Expenditure Survey (POF) of 2017/2018, we assess how cash transfers, indirect taxes and direct taxes impact income by strata among four...

This article aims to estimate the dynamic factor model for prediction tax receipts in Brazil using monthly data for the period 2001-2013. The factorial model allows to reduce the dimensionality of the high number of taxes taking into account the information contained in the existing...

This article presents a linear econometric model with variable coefficients for the analysis of the quarterly dynamics of the Brazilian gross tax burden in the 1995-2008 years.The choice of this particular model was motivated by the constant changes made in the Brazilian tax system during these...

The aim of this article is to estimate a Bayesian factorial dynamic model for the analysis and forecasting of the Brazilian tax burden (BTB) using monthly data from 1996 to 2007. Twenty taxes are responsible for about 80% of the BTB, each of which with a distinct seasonal pattern The factorial...
