The Figure below shows a decline in the inflation tax (seigniorage) as the inflation increases in Pakistan. When requesting a correction, please mention this item's handle: You can help correct errors and omissions. In this case, inflation may be seen as a result of the government's need to raise seigniorage.

The Laffer curve assumes that no tax revenue is raised at the extreme tax rates of 0% and 100%, and that there is a tax rate between 0% and 100% that maximizes government tax revenue. But the Democratic party, then rooted in the agricultural South, argued tariff reductions would increase revenues by increasing the number of taxable imports.One of the conceptual uses of the Laffer curve is to determine the rate of taxation that will raise the maximum revenue (in other words, "optimizing" revenue collection). Actual systems of public finance are more complex, and there is serious doubt about the relevance of considering a single marginal tax rate.A representation of the relationship between taxation and government revenueIbn Khaldun, a 14th-century philosopher, wrote in his work Gellman, Barton, 258. However, the shape of the curve is uncertain and disputed among economists.One implication of the Laffer curve is that reducing or increasing tax rates beyond a certain point is counter-productive for raising further tax revenue.

As Bruno and Fischer (1990) show, the opposite holds under rational expectations, a feature that gives rise to the Òhigh inßation trapÓ analyzed in their article. In the United States, The Laffer curve was popularized in the United States with policymakers following an afternoon meeting with Laffer does not claim to have invented the concept; he notes that there are antecedents, including in the Laffer's name began to be associated with the idea after an article was published in There are historical precedents other than those cited by Laffer. Introduction The relationship between taxes and economic growth is one of the oldest and most studied topics in economics. Angler: The Cheney Vice Presidency, Penguin Press, New York 2008.‘È errore grandissimo... credere che un dazio frutifichi sempre più se più s’aggrava.’ p193 of the 1916 reprint.Folsom Jr., Burton W., "The Myth of the Robber Barons", p. 103. the Laffer curve (for example, Bruno and Fischer 1990); fiscal deficits in this case are not the sole explanation for inflation. Given that seigniorage and public debt are also important means of financing public spending in these countries, we take into account in this paper their respective impacts on growth, as they might deform the existing relationship between taxes and growth.

In economics, the Laffer curve, developed by supply-side economist Arthur Laffer, illustrates a theoretical relationship between rates of taxation and the resulting levels of the government's tax revenue.

The Republican party, which was then based in the protectionist industrial Northeast, argued that cutting rates would lower revenues.

The Laffer curve assumes that no tax revenue is raised at the extreme tax rates of 0% and 100%, and that there is a tax rate between 0% and 100% that maximizes government tax revenue. "The Laffer curve has also been extended to taxation of goods and services. Given that seigniorage and public debt are also important means of financing public spending in these countries, we take into account in this paper their respective impacts on growth, as they might deform the existing relationship between taxes and growth.
