Local Excise Taxes and Non-renewable Resource Production

Abstract

If state level statutes are amended to lower excise taxes, will non-renewable resource production be affected? This paper analyzes this question empirically using county-level panel data for the state of Wyoming’s oil, gas, and coal industries. Results are consistent with prior research that posits an inelastic relationship between changing effective tax rates and non-renewable resource production. Changing Wyoming excise tax laws, in the form of tax rate reductions, greatly reduces state revenue, but adds a little by way of new oil, gas, and coal production.
