| Tiivistelmä: | Focusing on the net fiscal effects, the gain from admitting immigrants is computed for welfare state with large expenditures and a large tax burden (Sweden). Prices and behaviour are held constant, allowing a detailed analysis of the immigration effects. The present value of future tax revenues minus outlays is potentially large, that is USD 23.500 per young working-age immigrant, but an average new immigrant represents a net government loss of USD 20.500. The dominant factors are employment rates and age. For young working-age immigrants, the "break-even" participation rate for which the gain would be zero is 60 percent. |
