资源简介:
In the United States, unemployment insurance is financed by taxes levied on employers. We develop a model to decompose UI taxes into a firing tax component, levied on firms that layoff workers, and a uniform payroll tax component, levied on all firms regardless of their layoffs. We develop a novel methodology to measure the two components and document a number of facts about the uniform payroll tax component: it is large, accounting for just under half of UI taxes, it rises significantly after recessions, and it is more cyclical in states with poorly funded UI system.
