Se utilizan técnicas de microsimulación para el análisis del impacto redistributivo diferencial de cada concepto de gasto, empleando el método de descomposición total de contribución aislada a la capacidad redistributiva global del impuesto. Para la aplicación empírica, empleamos los microdatos de la Encuesta Nacional de Ingresos y Gastos de los Hogares (ENIGH) 2002. El estudio pone de manifiesto la capacidad de compensación los grupos de contribuyentes, al identificar las directrices de ejecución de determinadas reformas fiscales sobre el IVA. Los resultados indican que un IVA diferenciado de 4, 7 y 15% incrementa la recaudación en 32.8% respecto de su nivel actual, y contribuye positivamente con los dos objetivos de justicia social tributaria: Mejorar la equidad horizontal y la vertical.]]></p></abstract>
<abstract abstract-type="short" xml:lang="en"><p><![CDATA[Abstract The paper goes forward to develop a decomposition of the redistribution and the impact on revenues of the current value added tax (VAT) in Mexico, identifying the redistribution faculty of the taxation treatment allocated within each household expenditure category. Microsimulation techniques are used in order to quantify the redistributive differential impact on each expenditure category, by means of the total decomposition method of isolated contribution to the global capacity of tax redistribution. In doing so, we make use of micro-data from the National Survey of Household Income and Expenditure (ENIGH) 2002. The empirical application, sketches the compensation capacity between different taxpayers groups, identifying the path of carrying out specific fiscal reforms to VAT. Results show that a differentiated VAT of 4, 7 and 15% increases revenues by 32.8% in relation to its current level, and contributes positively according to both social taxation justice objectives: Improve vertical and horizontal equity.]]></p></abstract>
