Outline of Final Research Achievements

The purpose of this research was to develop a computable general equilibrium model with the actual structure of the Japanese economy in an aging population, and then to explore the impact of the marginal tax reforms on the Japanese economy as well as of a pracitcal examination of the optimal taxation theory.
Then we had several resutls as follows: Under the assumption that there is unemployment with friction in the labor market in Japan, the marginal tax reform could reduce unemployment and increase the number of job opportunities. Furthermore, we could successfully trace the actual historical trend of labor market with several shocks within our model.
