Tiivistelmä: | This paper analytically explores the welfare effects of black-market (hereafter as: b-m.) activities undertaken by firms to evade taxes. The desirability of a b-m. is linked to the attributes of the goods supplied by b-m. firms. There are cases identified and analyzed where a b-m. reduces/increases the distortionary impact of taxation on the allocation of resources across the goods that the government is attempting to tax, leading to a welfare gain/loss. |
