英文摘要:
This study simulates the evolution of artificial economies in order to understand the tax relevance of administrative boundaries in the quality of life of its citizens. The modeling involves the construction of a computational algorithm, which includes citizens, bounded into families; firms and governments; all of them interacting in markets for goods, labor and real estate. The real estate market allows families to move to dwellings with higher quality or lower price when the families capitalize property values. The goods market allows consumers to search on a flexible number of firms choosing by price and proximity. The labor market entails a matching process between firms (location) and candidates (qualification). The government may be configured into one, four or seven distinct sub-national governments. The role of government is to collect taxes on the value added of firms in its territory and invest the taxes into higher levels of quality of life for residents. The model does not have a credit market. The results suggest that the configuration of administrative boundaries is relevant to the levels of quality of life arising from the reversal of taxes. The model with seven regions is more dynamic, with higher GDP values, but more unequal and heterogeneous across regions. The simulation with only one region is more homogeneously poor. The study seeks to contribute to a theoretical and methodological framework as well as to describe, operationalize and test computer models of public finance analysis, with explicitly spatial and dynamic emphasis. Several alternatives of expansion of the model for future research are described. Moreover, this study adds to the existing literature in the realm of simple microeconomic computational models, specifying structural relationships between local governments and firms, consumers and dwellings mediated by distance.

中文摘要:
这项研究模拟了人工经济的演变,以了解行政边界对公民生活质量的税收相关性。该模型涉及到一个计算算法的构建,该算法包括被限制为家庭的公民;企业和政府;它们都在商品、劳动力和房地产市场上相互作用。房地产市场允许家庭在将房地产价值资本化后,搬到质量更高或价格更低的住宅。商品市场允许消费者根据价格和距离选择灵活数量的公司。劳动力市场需要公司(地点)和候选人(资格)之间的匹配过程。政府可分为一个、四个或七个不同的地方政府。政府的作用是对其境内企业的增值征税,并将税收用于提高居民的生活质量。这种模式没有信贷市场。结果表明,行政边界的配置与税收逆转带来的生活质量水平有关。七个地区的模型更具动态性,GDP值更高,但各地区之间的不平等性和异质性更大。只有一个区域的模拟更不均匀。本研究旨在为公共财政分析的理论和方法框架做出贡献,并对公共财政分析的计算机模型进行描述、操作和测试,明确强调空间和动态。描述了扩展模型以供未来研究的几种备选方案。此外,本研究补充了简单微观经济计算模型领域的现有文献,具体说明了地方政府与企业、消费者与住宅之间通过距离调节的结构关系。
