    Auswirkungen von Steueränderungen im Bereich Entfernungspauschale und Werbungskosten

    ein Mikrosimulationsmodell

    (2006) Wagenhals, Gerhard; Buck, Jürgen
    To overcome a lack of information in official income tax statistcs, we developed a statistical matching approach for adding additional data from the German Socio-Economic Panel (GSOEP) to the most recent official income tax statistics data as of 2002. Based on a representative dataset of more than 35000 original tax report extracts, we implemented a microsimulation model that calculates the fiscal impact of changes in the area of tax deductible income related expenses, in particular tax deductible expenses for traveling from home to work and the lump sum deductible for all income related expenses. The new model allows a more detailed simulation of the fiscal impact of changes in the German income tax law than previously possible.
