An essay on revenue and spending elasticities by level of government / by R. S. Preston, B. L. Eyford, H. M. Saiyed.EC22-3/1981-199E-PDF

"Among the questions that we expect to answer, a few of the more important include: 1) Are federal spending multipliers larger or smaller than provincial spending multipliers? 2) What impact does the size and dynamic path of these spending multipliers have on the revenue generating capacity and spending response by level of government? 3) Is the revenue generating capacity and spending response by level of government alined or do large differences exist between them, which might contribute to persistent federal deficits or to fiscal imbalance? 4) Do persistent government deficits crowd out private capital formation? 5) Does the method of financing influence the size of the multiplier?"--Abstract, p. vii.
