Abstract
  • This study seeks to estimate and compare tax burdens for hypothetical families assumed to reside in each of the eleven contiguous Western states--Arizona, California, Colorado, Idaho, Montana, Nevada, New Mexico, Oregon, Utah, Washington, and Wyoming. The estimates are made for a wide range of incomes--from $3,500 to $50,000--in each state. The taxes are allocated employing various shifting assumptions based on economic and tax incidence analysis. The tax exporting issue is acknowledged, and the estimates of burden adjusted to account for this phenomena. As a result, the rankings of states by level of tax burden shown in this study differ from those yielded by the more usual taxes per capita and taxes per $1,000 of personal income measures. The procedure used in this study allows for interstate comparisons of tax burden at each of the ten income levels considered. As a by-product, it gives an estimate of the distribution of the tax burden within each of the eleven states.
