财税专业英文问题

财税专业英文问题

1. 简述税收原则Brief Introduction to Taxation Principles(税收原则)(1) Tax Equity Principle(公平原则)Horizontal equity(横向公平): people with the same tax-paying ability pay the same tax ;vertical equity(纵向公平): people with different tax-paying ability pay different taxesAbility Principle(能力): Taxation is based on capacity to pay.Benefit Principle(受益): Tax according to the benefit of public goods.Opportunity principle(机会):Tax according to the available opportunities.(2) Efficiency Principle(效率原则)Administrative Efficiency (行政效率)Minimizing Tax Expenses and Simplifying Taxation ExpensesEconomic Efficiency(经济效率):Taxation Must Be Beneficial to Economic Development 2.什么是市场失灵What is market failure(市场失灵)?Market failure means that the market mechanism cannot realize the effective allocation of resources(有效配置资源). Market failure is corresponding to market efficiency(有效市场). Since market allocation efficiency takes complete free competition(完全竞争市场)as a strict assumption condition, and the real market does not have such sufficient conditions, the resource allocation function of the market(市场功能)is not perfect, and the market mechanism itself also has inherent defects(市场固有缺陷), which are collectively referred to as "market failure". including:(1) monopoly(垄断). When an industry is monopolized by one enterprise or several enterprises, the monopolist may raise the price by restricting the production, making the price higher than its marginal cost and obtaining extra profits, thus losing the market efficiency.(2) insufficient and asymmetric information(信息不对称). Both producers and consumers in competitive markets require adequate information. Inadequate information and asymmetric information are also important factors affecting fair competition.(3) externalities and public goods(外部性与公共品). Perfect competition market requires the internalization of cost and benefit(成本收益内部化), while externality refers to the extra cost and extra benefit that are not compensated in the market activities.4) unfair income distribution(收入分配不公). The efficiency of market mechanism is based on full competition, and fierce competition cannot solve the problem of fair income distribution spontaneously.(5) economic fluctuations(经济波动). The market mechanism achieves the balance of demand and supply, but excessive competition inevitably leads to the repetition of demand exceeding supply and supply exceeding demand, which is the inevitable malpractice of market economy. 2.市场失灵是指市场机制不能实现资源的有效配置,即市场机制造成资源的配置失当。

本章重点为财政学的基本涵义。

教学内容:1.1Introduction of Public FinancePublic finance, also known as public sector economics or public economics, focuses on the taxing and spending activities of government and their influence on the allocation of resources and distribution of income.1.2 Public Finance and Ideology1. Organic view of governmentSociety is conceived of as a natural organism.Each individual is a part of this organism,and the government can be thought of as its heart. The individual has significance only as part of the community,and the good of the individual is defined with respect to the good of the whole. Thus,the community is stressed above the individual.2. Mechanistic view of governmentGovernment is not an organic part of society. Rather, it is a contrivance created by individuals to better achieve their individual goals.The individual rather than the group is at center stage.思考题:1. How is public finance defined?2. What are the ideological views concerning the relationship between the individual and the state?Chapter 2 Public Goods课时分配:12课时教学要求:通过本章学习使学生掌握公共品的界定和内涵,并以此为基础把握公共品的有效提供及其生产方面的基本观点。

西部地方性财经大学《财政学》双语教学的思考

西部地方性财经大学《财政学》双语教学的思考

西部地方性财经大学《财政学》双语教学的思考【摘要】西部地方性财经大学《财政学》双语教学中存在着教学目标不明确、教学方式单一、学时安排不合理、学生学习积极性不高,合格双语师资紧缺等问题。

优化《财政学》双语教学质量的对策是:建立独立的双语教学评价体系;增加双语教学课时;采用分级分班模式提高学生兴趣;加大双语师资培训等。

【关键词】西部;财经大学;财政学;双语教学;存在问题;优化对策一、引言教育部在2001年提出加强大学本科教学的12项措施里面要求,各高校在三年内开设5%—10%的双语课程,并引进原版教材和提高师资水平。

2002年教育部高教司在《普通高等学校本科教学工作水平评估方案》(试行)中明确双语教学作为教学建设与改革的一项重要内容,并对双语教学课程作统一规定,即授课课程采用外文教材且外语授课课时达到该课程50%以上的课程(外语课除外)。

在教育部的鼓励下,国内财经类高校双语教学如火如荼开展起来。

贵州财经大学等西部地方性财经院校双语教学根据自身实际情况,积极探索符合西部特色的双语教学改革与突破。

贵州财经大学的《财政学》双语教学在借鉴各高校成功经验的基础上2010年才开启起步晚,实际教学过程中面临不少问题,需要认真思考总结。

西部地方性财经大学的师资力量、教学水平和学生基础不能与全国重点财经大学相比。

但国际化是全球发展大趋势,只有保证西部财经大学的学生也能站在高端的国际教育平台上,才能保证西部地方性财经大学的办学模式和人才培养目标紧跟世界潮流,才能保证并提高西部地方性高校生存质量,才能为西部培养更多、更优秀的既能立足中国西部又有国际眼光的高素质复合型财经人才。

[1]而且现代财政学以英美财政学派为主流,我国财政学理论发展基本是沿袭英美主流财政学,只有通过引进欧美原版财政学教材,通过双语教学,才能让西部地方性财经大学的《财政学》课程建设追赶上学术的最前沿,才能让学生了解最新财政学的发展动态拓宽专业视野,提高专业英语的阅读能力。

六、教学内容安排Chapter 1 Individuals and Government教学目标:After studying this chapter, the students should be able to:1. Use a production-possibility curve to explain the trade- off between private goods and services and government goods and services.2. Describe how the provision of government goods and services through political institutions differs from market provision of goods and services and how government affects the circular flow of income and expenditure in a mixed economy.3. Discuss the various categories of federal, state, and local government expenditures in the United States and the way those expenditures are financed.内容提要:Public finance is the field of economics that studies government activities and alternative means of financing government expenditures. Modern public finance emphasizes the relationships between citizens and governments. Government goods and services are supplied through political institutions, which employ rules and procedures that have evolved in different societies for arriving at collective choices. Government goods and services are usually made available without charge for their use, and they are financed by compulsory payments (mainly taxes) levied on citizens and their activities. A major goal in the study of public finance is to analyze the economic role of government and the costs and benefits of allocating resources to government use as opposed to allowing private enterprise and households to use those resources.重点难点:The allocation of resources between government and private use; The structure of state and local government expenditure; Market failure and the functions of government: how much government is enough? Government transfer payments; Nonmarket rationing.有关提示:这一部分是公共部门经济学的引言部分,应让学生明白公共部门和私人部门的区别,以及他们各自是如何配置资源的,另外也要熟悉美国政府支出的增长情况。

财政学专业介绍

财政学专业介绍

专业名称:财政学概述:财政学(英文名称:Public Finance Program)是研究以国家为主体的财政分配关系的形成和发展规律的学科。

它主要研究国家如何从社会生产成果中分得一定份额,并用以实现国家职能的需要,包括财政资金的取得,使用、管理及由此而反映的经济关系。

财政(Public Finance)即国家财政,是以国家为主体,通过政府的收支活动,集中一部分社会资源,满足社会公共需要的经济活动,即研究政府如何为满足社会公共需要、筹集和使用资金的理论、制度和管理方法的科学。

历史:财政学是一门专门研究财富在国家、个人、企业之间的分配方式和使用方式等应用问题的学科,其诞生于18世纪,其发展主要经历了以下几个阶段。

首先,财政学在18世纪成为一门科学,当时主要针对法国重商主义现象提出静态零博弈理论进行研究。

其次,财政学在20世纪已得到进一步发展,并实现了国家财政税务政策在宏观控和微观控制方面所起作用等问题研究的系统化。

从那时候起,财政学便成为人们研究经济宏观政策对经济发展的意义相关问题的重要工具,在国民经济的发展中起着支柱作用。

未来:随着市场经济的发展,国际竞争日趋激烈,对经济管理与调控等相关方面的要求不断提高,人们对经济政策滞后的问题越来越重视。

未来的发展趋势是依照当前现有的科学知识,顺应市场的需要,研究出更先进的国民经济调控方法和技术。

所有这些都使本学科有更为广阔的发展空间。

毕业生的知识和能力:1、掌握财政学科的基本理论、基本知识;2、具有处理财政税收业务的基本能力;3. 熟悉国家有关财政、税收的方针、政策和法规;4. 了解本学科的理论前沿和发展动态;5. 掌握文献检索、资料查询的基本方法,具有一定的科学研究和实际工作能力。

培养对象:本专业培养具备中外经济政策的宏观调控作用及具务经济法律知识和应用能力,另外还需要有从事财经类工作的基本能力,能熟练掌握并运用马克思主义经济学和经济法律方面的基础理论知识并具备创新能力的人才。

Refer to Figure 13.5 in your textbook. Suppose that the demand curve for barley can becharacterized by the equation X d = 26 –P/2. Suppose further that price was $10.00 and a $4.00 tax is imposed on the market.a) What is the amount of tax revenue generated by the tax?b) How much excess burden is generated by the tax?2. Refer to Figure 13.7 in your textbook. If the supply curve for labor can be written as L =w/2 –3/2 and the initial wage was $10, how much excessburden is created if there is a tax on wages of $2?3. Suppose the inverse demand curve for good A is given by the equation P A = 10 – Q A/10,and the supply curve is perfectly elastic (horizontal) at $1. Good A is presently taxed at $2 per unit. Good B (which is independent of good A) has an inverse demand curve, P B = 5 –Q B/20, and is also perfectly elastic at $1. Good B is untaxed.a) How much tax revenue is collected and what is the excess burden of the $2 tax onA?b) How much revenue is collected if the tax on good A is reduced to $1 per unit andgood B is taxed at $1 per unit?c) What is the total excess burden of taxing both goods at $1 per unit?d) Which tax system is preferable from the point of view of economic efficiency?4. Suppose that demand is perfectly inelastic. Supply is normal and upward sloping. Whatis the economic incidence of a unit tax placed on suppliers?5. Refer to Figure 13.8 in your textbook. If VMP mkt can be characterized by the equationVMP mkt= 50 –2H mkt, where H is the number of hours worked, and VMP home can be characterized by the equation VMP home = 45 –3H home, where H is the number of hours worked, what is H* if there are a total of 40 hours to be worked between work and home? True/False/Uncertain Questions1. When a single tax is imposed, the excess burden is proportional to the compensatedelasticity of demand and to the square of the tax rate.2. A lump sum tax can create an excess burden.3. The logic of the double-dividend hypothesis may not hold because the Pigouvian taxexacerbates pre-existing distortions in the labor market.4. Taxing in labor markets creates more excess burden than taxing in commodity markets.5. The differential taxation of inputs does not create an excess burden.6. Lump sum taxes do not distort behavior.7. Taxes that create an excess burden are bad.8. Excess burden calculations typically assume no other distortions.9. Unit taxes vary along with the price of the taxed commodity.10. Taxes impose an excess burden.Essay Questions1. Suppose you had to design an economic system for a country that had never existedbefore, like one of the former Soviet Union countries. What criteria would you consider to minimize the excess burden of the system of taxation?2. Equivalent variation is a method employed to measure excess burden. Comment on whya method such as compensating variation would not be appropriate for this analysis.3. Is it possible to design a tax that does all of the following:i) leaves behavior unchangedso that the quantity demanded of goods and services does not change, ii) creates no excess burden, iii) is not regressive, and iv) is welfare enhancing?Answers to CHAPTER 13 - Taxation and EfficiencyAnswers to Multiple-Choice Questions1. a2. a3. d4. e5. d6. a7. a8. d9. d10. c11. b12. d13. b14. a15. cAnswers to Discussion Questions1. a) Tax revenue generated is (4)(19) = 76.b) Excess burden is (1/2)(4)(2) = 4.2. Excess burden is the area of the triangle idh, which is (1/2)(2)(1) = 1.3. a) Tax revenue = (2)(70) =140. Excess burden = (1/2)(2)(20) = 20.b) Total tax revenue = (1)(80) + (1)(60) = 140.c) Total excess burden = (1/2)(20)(1) + (1/2)(10)(1) = 15.d) Both systems raise the same amount of tax revenue, 140, but the second systemdoes it with less excess burden, 15 < 20. Therefore, the second system would bemore efficient.4. The economic incidence of the tax falls entirely on the consumers.5. Setting the two equations equal to each other gives 50 –2H mkt = 45 –3H home and,keeping in mind the total time constraint, that H mkt + H home = 40 yields that H home * = 25 and H mkt* = 15.Answers to True/False/Uncertain Questions1.

This would be very important for a new country that has no institutional history to draw upon.2. Compensating variation measures the change in income that would be required to return aperson to his original utility curve after a commodity tax/subsidy had moved him from it.Equivalent variation measures the amount of income change that would be necessary to move a person to the same level ofutility that a commodity tax/subsidy moved him to. 3. No. Currently, it would be difficult to design a tax system that can do all of these things.。

哈维罗森财政学全英笔记Chapter1

Chapter One IntroductionThis book is about the taxing and spending activities of government, a subject usually called public finance.This term is something of a misnomer, because the fundamental issues are not financial (that is, relating to money). Rather, the key problems relate to the use of real resources. For this reason, some authors prefer the label public sector economics or simply public economics.We focus on the microeconomic function of government- the way government affects the allocation of resources and the distribution of income.This book follows tradition by focusing on governmental spending and revenue-raising activities.Public Finance and IdeologyOpinions on how government should function in the economic sphere are influenced by ideological views concerning the relationship between the individual and the state. Political philosophers have distinguished two major approaches.1. Organic View of GovernmentSociety is conceived of as a natural organism. Each individual is a part of this organism, and the government can be thought of as its heart. The individual has significance only as part of the community, and the good of the individual is defined with respect to the good of the whole. Thus, the community is stressed above the individual.The goals of the society are set by the state, which attempts to lead society toward their realization. The choice of goals differs considerably.Because societal goals can differ, a crucial question is how they are to be selected. Proponents of the organic view usually argue that certain goals are natural for the societal organism.2. Mechanistic View of GovernmentGovernment is not an organic part of society. Rather, it is a contrivance created by individuals to better achieve their individual goals.Virtually everyone agrees that it is good for individuals when government protects them from violence. To do so government must have a monopoly on coercive power.Opinions within the mechanistic tradition diverge. Libertarians, who believe in a very limited government, argue against any further economic role for the government. Libertarians are extremely skeptical about the ability of governments to improve social welfare.Social democrats believe that substantial government intervention is required for the good of individuals.3. Viewpoint of This BookThe mechanistic view of government has come to dominate Anglo-American political thought. Not surprisingly, Anglo-American economic thought has alsodeveloped along individual lines. Within the individualistic tradition there is much controversy with respect to how active government should be.Economic policy is not based on economic analysis alone. The desirability of a given course of government action inevitably depends in part on ethical and political judgments.Government at a Glance1. The Legal Framework2. The Size of GovernmentA more sensible (and common) approach is to measure the size of government by the volume of its annual expenditures, of which there are basically three types:(1) Purchase of goods and services.(2) Transfers of income to people, businesses, or other governments.(3) Interest payments.The federal government itemizes its expenditures in a document referred to a as the unified budget. However, some government activities have substantial effects on resource allocation even though they involve minimal explicit outlays. For example, issuing regulations per se is not very expensive, but compliance with the rules can be very costly. Some have suggested that the costs imposed on the economy by government regulations be published in an annual regulatory budget. Unfortunately, computing such costs is exceedingly difficult so it is unlikely there will ever be an official regulatory budget.The figure is a misleading indicator of the growth of government for several reasons:(1) Because of inflation, the dollars decreased in value over time.(2) The population has also grown over time. An increasing population by itself creates demands for a larger public sector.(3) It is sometimes useful to examine government expenditure compared to the size of the economy. If government doubles in size but at the same time the economy triples, then government has relatively shrunk.Government expenditures have increased in both nominal and real absolute terms, in per capita terms, and as a percentage of GDP.3. ExpendituresNational defense and Social Security are the largest spending items in the federal budget.Much of the government budget consists of so-called entitlement programs-programs determined by the number of people who qualify which are out of hands of the current government. The fast-growing areas such as Social Security and interest payments are relatively fixed in the sense that they are determined by the previous decisions.The share of national defense spending in federal expenditure has fallen over time, while Social Security, public welfare, and payments on outstanding debt have increased in importance. The combination of entitlement programs and interestof the payments reduces yearly control over the level of expenditures. About 34federal budget is relatively uncontrollable.It is useful to break down total expenditures by level of government. State and local governments are clearly important players.4. RevenuesAt the federal level, personal income taxation is currently the single most important source of revenue, accounting for about 45% of the tax collections. Socialof federal revenue collections, which are payroll tax Insurance accounting for 13collections used to finance Social Security and Medicare. The federal corporate income tax decreases. In the state and local sector, the property tax decreases and individual income taxes increase.Changes in the Real Value of Debt When the government is a debtor and prices increase, changes in the real value of the debt may be an important source of revenue.。
