Topic: Fiscal neutrality



  
 Fiscal neutrality - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
When it is said that fiscal neutrality is desirable, the meaning is that the tax measure or policy should not introduce undesirable distortions into the normal working of the economy by significantly altering economic incentives and changing behavior.
The discussion about fiscal neutrality therefore really concerns tax measures that introduce distortions into the economy or society that raise serious doubts as to the wisdom of the tax measure.
In some cases, the fiscal distortion is deliberate, so as to discourage certain types of activities.

 FULL TEXT OF GAO STUDY
The fiscal year 1997 appropriations for title I compensatory education for the disadvantaged was $7.7 billion.
A positive fiscal neutrality score would indicate that per pupil funding rises with income; a fiscal neutrality score of 0 would indicate that fiscal neutrality has been achieved (that is, no relationship exists between per pupil funding and per pupil income); and a negative score would indicate higher funding in low-income districts.
The second section shows how the variation in fiscal neutrality scores among states is explained by differences in state equalization policies (state share and state targeting) and by differences in the relative local tax effort of wealthy and poor districts.

A state fiscal policy of neutrality over the business cycle is used as a benchmark for evaluating the use of budget stabilization funds.
In the Total row, the Total as a Percent of 1988 budget is the Total Fiscal Stress divided by the total of all state 1988 budgets.
While we take no stand on the desirability of fiscal neutrality as a policy goal, it is a good benchmark to measure the performance of a rainy day fund because the purpose of a rainy day fund is to reduce the need for tax increases and expenditure cuts.

 Buchanan: Collected Works, Public Finance in Democratic Process: Fiscal Institutions and Individual Choice, Chapter 11: ...
Suppose that a system of equal-per-head taxes has been agreed on in some "constitutional" setting before the particular fiscal decision is to be made, with the agreement stipulating that the total tax bill shall be residually determined as a result of the voting process on the amount of the public good to be supplied.
In any real-world fiscal setting the evaluations of different persons for public goods will be different and, also, persons will differ in other respects, some of which will be relevant for determining their tax liabilities.
It is, instead, that of attempting to make rudimentary predictions concerning the direction of effects on total spending for public goods that various fiscal institutions exert, via their influence on individual choice behavior.

The classic economically neutral tax is a tax on land.
The object of a green tax shift is often to implement a "full cost accounting", using fiscal policy to internalize market distorting externalities, which leads to higher efficiency, and sustainable wealth creation.

Fiscal Reviews: DQA has a Fiscal Audit Unit responsible for conducting audits of the not-for-profit agencies.
The cost neutrality review included reconciling waiver costs reported on the annual Form HCFA-372 (annual waiver report) with costs reported on the quarterly Forms HCFA-64 (reports of Medicaid expenditures).
The Division of Revenue and Administrative Support is responsible for oversight of the fiscal aspects of the waiver including budgeting, price setting, and billing.

 Internet Law and Policy Forum - Events
Neutrality rejects the imposition of new or additional taxes on electronic transactions and instead simply requires that the tax system treat similar income equally, regardless of whether it is earned through electronic means or through existing channels of commerce.
For purposes of the neutrality analysis, however, it is submitted that the appropriate comparison is to the treatment that would be accorded to such software when imported directly into the EU by the end consumer.
It has been endorsed by the Committee on Fiscal Affairs of the OECD and the European Commission, as well as by the U.S. Treasury and Internal Revenue Service, the Canadian Minister's Advisory Committee on Electronic Commerce, and other governments, organizations, and businesses participating in the wide-ranging discussions about how electronic commerce should be taxed.

(1) In any fiscal year, the participation of the commonwealth in the demonstration project shall be contingent upon a finding of budget neutrality by the commissioner.
The comptroller is hereby authorized and directed to establish in the state accounting system a means of identifying such separately identified expenditures and revenues.
If budget neutrality is not achieved within the time stipulated by the plan of corrective action, the commissioner shall notify said secretary and committees and initiate the termination notice to the secretary.

 CHAPTER SEVENTEEN - OPERATIONAL PROTOCOL
Since Medicare populations are excluded under the budget neutrality cap, these payments will not be included in the waiver reporting or in the budget neutrality PMPM calculations.
The State will identify those expenditures that will be subject to the waiver budget neutrality cap and those expenditures that are not subject to the waiver budget neutrality cap.
The fiscal agent calculates the individual rates and total payment due based on the actuarial class of the recipient as determined by using data on the statewide eligibility file (WMS) and eligibility status.

The cost neutrality formula calculates an amount for typical quarterly payments to the States that they would otherwise have received for that period for the children in the demonstration, in the absence of a demonstration.
For fiscal year 2000 demonstrations, letters of intent should be submitted by March 3, 2000 with proposals submitted by April 21, 2000.
While we include due dates for each fiscal year, the Department intends this to be a rolling application process whereby a State may apply at any point within a fiscal year.

 Federal Register: May 5, 2000
For FY 2001, we are proposing a GAF/DRG budget neutrality factor of 0.9986.
To determine the appropriate budget neutrality adjustment factor and the exceptions payment adjustment factor, we developed a dynamic model of Medicare inpatient capital-related costs, that is, a model that projects changes in Medicare inpatient capital-related costs over time.
412.352 required that the Federal rate also be adjusted by a budget neutrality factor so that aggregate payments for inpatient hospital capital costs were projected to equal 90 percent of the payments that would have been made for capital-related costs on a reasonable cost basis during the fiscal year.

 VoteMatt.com Matt Reading for Maine's future
The fiscally responsible solution to our property tax crisis is to remedy the system's failures of fairness and neutrality.
Only when a tax is adequate, fair, and neutral may we deem it a 'good' tax.
Such schemes ignore the importance of flexibility in fiscal policy to enable governments to respond to unforeseen future emergencies and needs.

In fiscal year 1996, the NTIA gave WTIU-TV $56,000 for airplay tape equipment, and in fiscal year 1997 it gave $26,000 for computer video equipment, which comprised about two percent of its budget.
In fiscal year 1994, PTFP gave WTIU-TV $421,500, or eight percent of its total budget, to purchase a digital-ready transmitter.
For fiscal year 1995, the NTIA awarded a total of 27.6 million dollars in funds to 142 projects.

 EPAA Vol. 12 No. 31 Welner: Colorado's Voucher Law:
Examining the Claim of Fiscal Neutrality
At the time, the state was in the midst of a budget crisis, and legislators from both parties were disinclined to support any bills that required increased expenditures.
It identifies two significant fiscal impacts – one for taxpayers and one for public school districts: 1) Once the voucher law was fully implemented, it would have cost taxpayers an additional amount of approximately $10 million per year.
The purpose of this study is to estimate the fiscal effect of the taxpayer subsidization of this likely group of voucher recipients who would attend private schools irrespective of voucher availability.

 CEPR Discussion Paper Abstracts
Second, Woodford’s fiscal theory of the price level, according to which for certain fiscal rules the (initial) price level is independent of the nominal money stock, is invalid.
The paper establishes the following: First, money is neutral even if there is a non-zero stock of non-monetary nominal public debt, because the government adjusts real taxes to satisfy its inter-temporal budget constraint.
It combines an overdetermined fiscal-financial programme with an unwarranted weakening of the government’s inter-temporal budget constraint, requiring it to hold only in equilibrium, and only for arbitrarily restricted configurations of public spending, taxes and initial debt stocks.

Budget neutrality means that, in a given year, estimated aggregate payments for Medicare hospice services using the proposed FY 2006 wage index would equal estimated aggregate payments that would have been made for the same services if the 1983 wage index had remained in effect.
Budget neutrality means that, in a given year, estimated aggregate payments for Medicare hospice services using the updated wage index values will equal estimated payments that would have been made for these services if the 1983 wage index values had remained in effect.
The budget neutrality adjustment factor is calculated by comparing what we would have paid using current rates and the 1983 wage index to what would be paid using current rates and new wage index.

To ensure budget neutrality, the ARA PCandB budget will correspond to the PCandB projections for the ARA LOB in the President’s budget.
Budget neutrality means that the new compensation system will not cost more than the previous compensation system was projected to cost.
Projected allocations for the following fiscal year are based on the most recent budget submission or the President’s budget, including new program increases.

 Fiscal Policy Effectiveness And Neutrality Results In A Nonricardian World - Detken (ResearchIndex)
Contrary to intuition, it is shown that fiscal policy becomes more effective, the less the central bank monetises government debt.
Furthermore, there is a degree of debt monetisation at which Ricardian equivalence seems to hold in this non-Ricardian model, as fiscal policy is neutral with respect to agents net wealth.

 East County Observer - Sarasota and Manatee Weekly Newspaper
County Attorney Steve DeMarsh voiced his opinion that the fiscal neutrality policy was not legal if it requires developments to provide, on an annual basis, that they are fiscally neutral.
He said golf courses are worth more to homes, raising the values and thereby providing the development an ability to be fiscally neutral - another mandate within the policy requiring developments to pay their own way on infrastructure, utilities and services.
Homebuilder Lee Wetherington spoke against the policy's current plan that golf courses can be added but would not receive any density bonuses or would not be considered part of the 50% open space requirement.

 EconPapers: Debt Non-Neutrality, Policy Interactions, and Macroeconomic Stability
In particular, a balanced budget policy stabilizes the economy under cost-push shocks such that output and inflation variances can be lower than in a corresponding framework where debt is neutral.
Under aggressive anti-inflationary monetary policy regimes, macroeconomic fluctuations can then decrease with the share of tax financing.

 Fiscal Policy with Impure Intergenerational Altruism
Recent work demonstrates that dynastic assumptions guarantee the irrelevance of redistributional policies, distortionary taxes, and prices--the neutrality of fiscal policy (Ricardian equivalence) is only the "tip of the iceberg." This paper investigates the possibility of reinstating approximate Ricardian equivalence by introducing a small amount of friction in intergenerational links.
" Fiscal Policy With Impure Intergenerational Altruism," NBER Working Papers 2613, National Bureau of Economic Research, Inc.
If Ricardian equivalence depends upon significantly shorter chains of links than do these stronger neutrality results, then friction may dissipate the effects that generate strong neutrality, without significantly affecting the Ricardian result.
