Effect of value added tax rate changes on the price level of foodstuffs
Original language description
The aim of this paper is to determine the effect of value added tax rate changes on the price level of foodstuffs and to analyze the VAT rates of member states of the European Union. Value added tax has a specific effect because the indirect tax is included in the price of goods and services. Foodstuffs are basic goods which are consumed by all consumers, so each VAT rate change related to foodstuffs affects all citizens of each member state. Any VAT rate increase brings a significant impact on the price level of foodstuffs, especially in the month the change is implemented. In general, an increase in the VAT rate has a more significant effect on prices than a decrease. As a result, each increase in the VAT ate can cause effects that can be difficult for a government to correct at a later date through a VAT rate decrease.
