Tiivistelmä: | This paper considers the relative efficiency of ad valorem and unit taxes in imperfectly competitive markets. The authors provide a simple proof that ad valorem taxes are welfare-superior to unit taxes in the short run when production costs are identical across firms. The proof covers differentiated products and a wide range of market conduct. |
