CGE Analysis of the Current Australian Tax System by KPMG Econtech

The Australia's Future Tax System (AFTS) Review Panel commissioned a series of analytical papers to explore significant tax and transfer policy issues.

An analysis of the current Australian tax system was conducted by KPMG Econtech using the MM900 computable general equilibrium (CGE) model of the Australian economy.

The study looked at the efficiency costs of Australia's major federal, state and local government taxes.

The report is available on the AFTS Review website at www.taxreview.treasury.gov.au.
