The Role of the Value Added Tax on Foodstuffs in the Consumer Basket
Original language description
When looking for economic policy instruments in times of economic crisis, even tax instruments are considered, particularly changes (increases) of value added tax rates. Most EU member states have two VAT rates, while foodstuffs and non-alcoholic beverages are included under a reduced rate. If increasing the reduced VAT rate, the significance of the foodstuff or non-alcoholic beverage in the consumer basket, the regression of VAT in these commodities and the significance of the impact on households should be considered. This article tries to point out this issue by analyzing the impacts of changes in VAT rates, or the actual VAT paid by average households in the Czech Republic in the period from 2005 to 2010.
