Abstract

This paper studies the implications of a reform in the taxation of consumption in Brazil with the inclusion of mechanisms of income compensation to the poorest. From a computable general equilibrium model specially built to deal with the theme, two proposals for personalized returns are simulated in the context of consumer tax reform. The results show that the replacement of the current tax structure by a VAT would bring efficiency and equity gains, the latter gain being potentiated when the return mechanisms to the poorest families are added.
