Discreteness and the Welfare Cost of Labour Supply Tax Distortions (2002)
Preprint / Working Paper
Bhattarai, K., & Whalley, J. Discreteness and the Welfare Cost of Labour Supply Tax Distortions

We compare the welfare costs of tax distortions of labour supply in one and two member household discrete and continuous labour supply (leisure consumption) choice models calibrated to the same aggregate uncompensated labour supply elasticities. In t... Read More about Discreteness and the Welfare Cost of Labour Supply Tax Distortions.

The role of labour demand elasticities in tax incidence analysis with heterogeneous labour (1999)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Bhattarai, K., & Whalley, J. The role of labour demand elasticities in tax incidence analysis with heterogeneous labour

Whether labour bears full burden of household level income and consumption taxes ultimately depends on the degree of substitutability among different types of labour in production. We find more variation in incidence patterns across households with l... Read More about The role of labour demand elasticities in tax incidence analysis with heterogeneous labour.

On some properties of a trade closure widely used in numerical modelling (1999)
Journal Article
Bhattarai, K., Ghosh, M., & Whalley, J. (1999). On some properties of a trade closure widely used in numerical modelling. Economics letters, 62(1), 13-21. https://doi.org/10.1016/s0165-1765%2898%2900187-6

Armington trade models with price taking behaviour and CET and CES functions may have perverse offer curves and Nash equilibria in tariff games may not exist in the two-country case.

Existing literature assessing the impacts of transfers on low income households assumes that transfer program participants benefit by the full amount of cash transfers received.
