Abstract

type="main" xml:lang="es"> Se examina cómo el impuesto específico y el impuesto ad valorem afectan a la localización de empresas en un modelo de competencia-monopolio con regiones de tamaño asimétrico y una preferencia cuasi-lineal. Los ingresos tributarios se distribuyen de manera uniforme para todos los trabajadores o se distribuyen uniformemente a los trabajadores que residen en la región que genera la recaudación tributaria. En las transacciones de un bien homogéneo, a pesar de los sistemas de reembolso, el impuesto ad valorem conserva la proporción de la empresa, mientras que el impuesto específico acelera la aglomeración de empresas en la región más grande. Cuando el bien homogéneo no es objeto de transacciones, a pesar de los regímenes fiscales, la distribución intrarregional conserva la proporción de la empresa, mientras que la interregional acelera la aglomeración en la región más grande.
