The Incidence of Housing Allowances: Quasi-Experimental Evidence
(Valtion taloudellinen tutkimuskeskus, 2022-10-13)
This paper studies the effects of housing allowances on rents. Our research design is based on a reform that made the allowance more generous for small housing units as a quasi-experimental setting. We find that large ...
Using Payroll Tax Variation to Unpack the Black Box of Firm-Level Production
(Oxford University Press, 2021)
This paper uses quasi-experimental variation in payroll tax rates in Finland to investigate how firms use their input factors. We find that higher payroll tax rates lead to large employment responses and have no effects ...

(Wiley, 2021)
In this paper, we study the effect of housing demand subsidies on rents using discontinuities in the Finnish housing allowance system as a quasi‐experimental setting. The stepwise dependence of housing allowance on the ...

This paper provides evidence that prices respond significantly more strongly to increases than to decreases in Value-Added Taxes (VATs). First, using two plausibly exogenous VAT changes, we show that prices respond twice ...
The heterogeneous incidence of fuel carbon taxes: Evidence from station-level data
(Elsevier, 2022)
We use station-level price data and a significant diesel-fuel carbon tax reform to study who bears the economic burden of fuel carbon taxes. We use a difference-in-differences strategy to estimate the pass-through of the ...
Bearing the burden ̶ Implications of tax reporting institutions and image concerns on evasion and incidence
(Tampereen yliopisto, 2022-11-24)
