觀察近年來一些工業化國家「稅收與稅率反向變動」的情形，彷佛落入「拉佛曲線」(Laffer Curve)負斜率的地方；為探求拉佛曲線在租稅理論基礎上的可信度，乃引發研究本文之動機。
二、研究方法：
本文以Yunker(1986)的單一部門新古典模型為基礎，首次將「租稅逃避」的概念加入模型中，重新檢視在租稅逃避行為存在的前提下，稅收的稅率彈性之變化。此外，本文根據Lucas-Rapping(1970) 之有關長期與短期總合勞動供給彈性之實證研究結果，將拉佛曲線區分為「長期拉佛曲線」和「短線拉佛曲線」，與Buchanan and Lee(1982)依「需求理論」所導出之長期和短期拉佛曲線，得以相互對映。
實證分析部分，本文以我國近二十年來的綜所稅為對象，利用時間序列分析，迴歸估計綜所稅的稅收方程式，以期瞭解綜所稅稅收的稅率彈性之正、負符號及大小；並由稅收方程式中分離出「未逃避租稅的比例」(?) 與「有效稅率」(t?)，進而瞭解租稅逃漏與租稅規避對綜所稅稅基的影響。
三、研究發現：
本文將Yunker(1986)的模型修正之後發現，在租稅逃避的情況下，儘管生產要素的供給並不富於彈性，亦有可能使經濟體系落入拉佛曲線負斜率的地方。此外，本文導出稅率彈性較大的長期拉佛曲線，和稅率彈性較小的短期拉佛曲線，顯示長期下較有利於政府稅收的最大比。
我國綜所稅的實證結果發現，綜所稅的稅率彈性為正，且長期下（恆定狀態）的稅率彈性較短期內為大。至於租稅逃避的情形顯示，我國近二十年來綜所稅的有效稅率平均不到5%，稅基侵蝕不可不謂嚴重。 / Beck, John H., “AN ANALYSIS OF THE SUPPLY-SIDE EFF-ECTS OF TAX CUTS IN IS-LM MODEL”, National Tax Journal vol.32(December 1979).493-499
