Gasto público y efectos de los impuestos en los modelos de crecimiento endógeno con capital humano
Public Spending and the Effects of Taxes on Endogenous Growth Models with Human Capital
*Facultad de Ciencias Económicas y empresariales, Universidad La Coruña, España; <maje@udc.es>.
En este trabajo se desarrollan dos tipos distintos de cuestiones en un modelo de crecimiento endogeno con capital humano. En primer lugar, se analizan las tasas de crecimiento de una economía tipo Lucas (1988), en la que el gobierno dedica cierta fracción del producto a educación, tanto en una economía competitiva como en una economía gobernada por un planificador social. En segundo lugar, se aborda la estructura de impuestos y subsidios óptimos y se obtiene una solución Pareto óptima. Para conseguir estos resultados se utilizan técnicas de optimización dinámica en tiempo continuo, y se ajustan las condiciones de optimización de la economía competitiva a la planificada, de forma que los precios sombra del capital físico y del capital humano en ambos casos coincidan.
In the following article, two different kinds of issues are examined in an endogenous growth model using human capital. First, the rates of growth in a Lucas (1988) type economy are analyzed when the government allocates a certain fraction of GDP to education. This is done both in a free market economy as well as in one governed by a social planner. Second, the structure of taxes and optimal subsidies is studied and a Pareto efficient solution is obtained. To obtain these results, dynamic techniques of optimization in continuous time are used with conditions of optimization in a free market economy modified to those with social planning so that shadow prices of both fiscal as well as human capital, coincide.
