Funded Activity Summary

The Dynamics Shaping Underground Economic Behaviour. Tax evasion and the underground economy have recently become a topical issue in Australia. The underground economy is said to exist when a person either fails to declare cash earnings or overstates consumption expenditure in order to minimise their tax paying obligations. This current project will undertake the first international analysis of the behaviour of those participating in the underground economy and how these individuals respond to changes in taxes and economic opportunities. The results will contribute to future decisions that may affect tax policy, tax audit programs and taxpayer compliance initiative strategies, particularly those affecting Australia.
