INTERSTATE TAX EXPORTATION AND STATES' FISCAL STRUCTURES

This paper develops a theoretical model in which the individual state is viewed as attempting to maximize revenue collections from residents of other states for some given budget constraint. Implications of the model for consumer behavior are also developed and utilized to investigate the effects of tax spill-overs upon the output of public goods by political subdivisions. The implications of the model are statistically tested using data for the states during 1962. The results generally indicate that the states have partially pursued a goal of maximizing non-resident tax payments and that the existence of tax exportation has resulted in a net expansion of the public sector.
