Micro Simulation - A Tool for Economic Analysis

N. Anders Klevmarken

Working Papers from Uppsala - Working Paper Series

Abstract: Micro simulation involves modeling the behavior of individuals and other decision units taking into account the effects of policy parameters such as tax rates, eligibility rules for benefits and subsidies and compensation rates in the social security system. The model is simulated to analyze the impact of policy changes not only on mean behavior but also on the entire distribution of target variables.
