Abstract: This article investigates two output-based emission tax-refunding schemes with an exogenous abatement target by employing game models. For flow emissions, whether the refunding scheme could achieve the first-best outcome depended on the exogenous abatement target, and the tax-related budget constraint is binding under certain conditions. For stock emissions, the refunding scheme can only achieve the second-best outcome and the tax-related budget constraint is not binding anymore.
