Tiivistelmä: | Diamond and Mirrlees (1971) showed that the first-order conditions for the Ramsey tax problem do not necessarily characterize tax optima. Researchers have since become cautious in using the first-order conditions. This paper establishes the validity version of the first-order conditions, using them to determine when uniform taxation is optimal. The authors show Deaton's (1979) conditions to be sufficient, but not necessary, for the problem. |
