dc.description.abstract
An unduly neglected implication of the choice of the tax unit is its impact on
the consumption risk carried by taxpayers. As compared to individual taxation,
joint taxation with income splitting provides couples with more insurance
against the risk of earning inability for one of the spouses. If that risk is
not insurable in markets, replacing individual taxation with joint taxation
with income splitting can generate a Pareto-improvement.
