【Abstract】 This paper extends the Barro (1990) model with one aggregate government spending and one flat income tax to include public expenditures and taxes by multiple levels of government. It derives the rate of endogenous growth and, with both simulations and special examples, examines how the rate of endogenous growth changes with respect to federal income tax, local taxes, and federal transfer. It also discusses the growth-maximizing and welfare - maximizing choices of taxes and federal transfer.更多还原
