Fertility Decisions under Coexisting Pay-as-You-Go Pensions and Unemployment Insurance

Author

  • Noguchi, Soma

Abstract

This study investigates the effects of increased tax rates on fertility decisions, pension benefits, and unemployment benefits in an economy with both a pay-as-you-go (PAYG) pension system and unemployment insurance. By incorporating voluntary unemployment, the model highlights how higher tax rates reduce households’ willingness to work, thereby affecting the social security system through the production channel. The analysis also reveals differing impacts of the two types of labor income taxes.
