For most people, the statutory rates are lower than the marginal personal income tax rate on their labour income. However, the effective rate of superannuation taxes can be much higher than the statutory rates, due to the compounding of taxes on fund earnings. Important normative and policy questions relate to whether the taxes on superannuation are too heavy or too light; imposed at the right junctures or not; equitable or inequitable between taxpayers. The answers should depend on objective claims about the effects of the taxation arrangements. To support those objective claims, various indices have been used to measure the burden of taxation on superannuation. This article questions the validity and interpretation of those indices and proposes an alternative. No attempt is made to sketch the optimal tax system for superannuation: The Tax and Transfer Policy Institute has issued a thoughtful paper on that (TTPI 2020). My objectives are limited: to critique the prevailing indicators of the effective rates of taxation and of the rate and quantum of tax concessions; to offer a preferred alternative; and to illustrate the quantitative and policy relevance.</p>","PeriodicalId":45208,"journal":{"name":"Economic Papers","volume":"44 2","pages":"119-135"},"PeriodicalIF":0.9,"publicationDate":"2025-03-14","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1111/1759-3441.12434","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144598462","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This work addresses the foregoing study using the augmented mean group (AMG) econometrics technique on panel data of 29 OECD net energy-importing countries from 2001 to 2021. The long-run finding unearthed that energy dependency intensifies macroeconomic instability, confirming that relying on overseas energy imports will hamper the smooth functioning of domestic economic machinery in the form of energy supply interruption. Besides energy dependency, this study uses government consumption spending, regulatory quality, and globalisation as control variables in macroeconomic instability function. The long-run outcomes further depict that government consumption spending and globalisation aggravate macroeconomic instability while regulatory quality reduces it. These findings are further checked by applying the pooled mean group-autoregressive distributed lag (PMG-ARDL) method. In conclusion, this study provides policy implications to prioritise domestically produced energy use and diversify energy sources by increasing the share of clean energy in the total energy mix.</p>","PeriodicalId":45208,"journal":{"name":"Economic Papers","volume":"43 4","pages":"389-410"},"PeriodicalIF":0.9,"publicationDate":"2024-11-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1111/1759-3441.12429","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143248437","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
