摘要
The paper studies the effect of taxes on labor supply in a model with interdependent behavior, i.e. individuals' preferences depend on other people's behavior. It is found that not taking the interdependency into account can lead to a serious bias in the predicted effects of a tax change. It is also shown that interdependent behavior can give rise to spikes in the hours distribution. Such spikes often have been attributed to quantity constraints.
