Description
Summary:The aim of the paper is to analyse the effects of some fiscal measures taken in the current economic context in Romania on the wealth of households. Specifically, we consider additional property taxation, 70% taxation of income without a justified source, and a correlation between a one-unit increase in property taxation, the increase in tax revenue, and the extent to which this increase affects the Gini coefficient (inequality). The methodology used is descriptive and empirical, referring to bibliographic references from specialised literature and statistical data of various national and international fiscal entities. Through regression, we demonstrated a correlation between the Gini coefficient and tax revenue increases by raising property tax revenues by 1 percentage point.
