1 Table 1. Statutory tax rates on capital income. Tax rate on retained corporate income (%) 1 Top personal tax rate on interest income (%) Change Change Small Countries (<20 mill.) Denmark Finland Norway Sweden Belgium Netherlands Luxembourg Ireland 50(10) 28(10) Portugal Austria Switzerland Australia Average for small countries Larger countries (>40 mill.) Spain Italy France Germany UK USA Japan Average for larger countries Including local taxes. 2. Many countries have special savings incentives with lower tax rates. These are not reflected in the table. 3. For manufacturing corporations in Ireland a low 10% corporate income tax applies (as indicated in brackets). If this rate is used in computing the average for small countries the figures would be 45.8, 30.4 and respectively. Sources: The figures for 1985 were taken from the Ruding Report (1992), tables 8.5 and 8.6. The figures from 1998 and 1999 were taken from Andersson (1999).
2 Table 2. Average effective tax rates on labour and capital income Total effective tax rate on labour income (%) 1 Effective tax rate on capital income (%) Nordic countries Denmark Finland Norway Sweden Average Continental Europe Austria Belgium France Germany Italy Netherlands Spain Average Anglo Saxon countries Australia Canada United Kingdom United States Average Japan Average for all countries The total effective tax rate on labour income (t) is given by the formula t=(t l +t c )/(1+t l ), where t l = effective direct tax rate on labour income and t c = effective tax rate on consumption. Source: The estimates of effective tax rates on labour income, capital income and consumption are based on the methodology developed by Mendoza, Razin and Tesar (1994); the figures were taken from Daveri and Tabellini (1999) and Volkerink and de Haan (1999).

Denmark, Finland, Norway and Sweden. 2. Defined here as Austria, Belgium, France, Germany, Italy, Netherlands and Spain. 3. The magnitude 1-aσ may also be interpreted as the median level of individual wealth relative to the mean wealth level. 4. A degree of home bias equal to 75/25 means that union (non-union) residents will invest 75% (25%) of their capital within th e union and the remaining 25% (75%) in the rest of the world if the after-tax rate of return is the same in the two regions. 5. The Nordic region is divided into 4 equally large countries each comprising 1% of world population. Continental Europe is divided into 7 countries each including 6% of world population. 6. The figures in brackets are empirical estimates. The average effective tax rates were calculated on the basis of the data for in Table 2.

The rest of the world is assumed to undertake an optimal policy response to coordination within the union. 1. The wage elasticity of labour supply is Elasticity of factor productivity w.r.t. infrastructure (µ 1)= Wage share of GDP=0.7; capital income share= Elasticity of substitution between union and non-union assets=1. 5. Elasticity of substitution between union and non-union assets. 6. Social weight given to factor income=60%. 7. Union population=40% of world population. Source: Simulations with the TAXCOM model.

Effects of regional tax coordination on the distribution of welfare in a union country 1 Welfare gain from introducing a Quintile Share of total wealth (%) regional minimum capital tax rate Notes: Fiscal policies are decided by a policy maker representing the 3rd quintile (the median voter), implying that the social weight given to factor income relative to transfer income is equal to 14/20=0.7 within the tax union. The other parameter values are equal to those stated in columns 4 and 5 in Table Estimated on the basis of the distribution of factor incomes in Denmark (data provided by Statistics Denmark) 2. Welfare gain for residents in the representative union country. The welfare gain is measured in percent of the quintile s disposable income under tax competition.
