Modelo de equilibrio general aplicado para México y análisis de impuestos a la extracción de hidrocarburos

For a Social Accounting Matrix (SAM) of 2003, we present a parsimonious Applied General Equilibrium Model (AGEM), useful to analyze several problems; it is used here to analyze the effects of substituting high taxes on Mining -given by the excessive burden on Pemex (the Mexican public petroleum company)-, by an increase in income taxes. We include the SAM, a valuable result by itself -usable with the methods of the structural analysis, among others. We analyze the simulation that eliminates the excessive tax on hydrocarbons extraction and reports magnitude and direction of changes in selected variables
