abstract: 'The United States changed its tax treatment of married couples in 1948,
|
||||
|
||||
from a system in which each spouse paid taxes on his or her own income
|
||||
|
||||
to a system in which a married couple is taxed as a unit. The switch
|
||||
|
||||
from separate to joint taxation changed incentives for labor supply and
|
||||
|
||||
asset ownership. This paper investigates the effects of the conversion
|
||||
|
||||
to joint taxation, taking advantage of a natural experiment created by
|
||||
|
||||
cross-state variation in property laws. Married individuals in states
|
||||
|
||||
with community property laws had always been taxed as if each spouse had
|
||||
|
||||
earned half of the couple''s income, and thus were unaffected by the 1948
|
||||
|
||||
legal change. Comparing the behavior of highly-educated taxpayers in
|
||||
|
||||
affected and unaffected states indicates that the tax change is
|
||||
|
||||
associated with a decline of approximately 2 percentage points in the
|
||||
|
||||
employment rate of married women, consistent with the higher
|
||||
|
||||
first-dollar tax rates they faced after 1948. Women married to
|
||||
|
||||
self-employed men were also less likely to have non-wage income after
|
||||
|
||||
1948, reflecting pre- 1948 allocation of family assets to wives for tax
|
||||
|
||||
purposes. The effects of joint taxation on married men''s labor force
|
||||
|
||||
participation and non-wage income holding are generally not
|
||||
|
||||
statistically significant. (c) 2008 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.'
