The multi-tax incidence module of the PolicyLinks system provides analysts with the ability to combine revenue estimates for more than one tax type to see overall incidence on resident households.

The database for this module includes a set of default incidence assumptions. Incidence assumptions are embodied in a set of parameters that include both the proportion of business taxes borne by business owners who are not residents of the state, and the proportion of business taxes paid by owners and laborers who are state residents.

Our user interface allows the user to:

• Edit the default set of incidence assumptions
• Select simulations by tax type to include in an incidence report
• Set the family income strata that will be used to generate an incidence report

Our report-building features allow users to build customized reports using any lines that have been created through the PolicyCreator.
