Abstract: | 本研究以我國民國 111 年綜合所得稅申報及核定資料為基礎,探討納稅義務人對列舉扣除制度中捐贈、保險費與購屋借款利息三項項目之行為反應,並分析租稅誘因於個人列舉決策中所發揮之效果,為同時估計納稅義務人是否選擇列舉特定列舉扣除項目與其實際列舉金額之兩階段行為,本文採用 Heckman 選擇模型(Heckman selection model),以最大概似法(maximum likelihood estimation, MLE)進行聯合估計,並進一步納入不同所得來源、所得階層與個體特徵進行分析。
實證結果顯示,捐贈與保險費之租稅價格彈性皆為顯著負值,且絕對值皆大於 1,反映納稅義務人對此類支出具高度價格彈性,顯示其具明確租稅誘因效果,相較之下,購屋借款利息之租稅價格彈性雖亦為負,但絕對值小於 1,顯示其受長期與契約性質影響,對價格變動之行為反應較為有限。此外,所得來源對列舉支出金額之影響亦具差異,投資或資本性所得(如利息與租賃及權利金所得)對捐贈與購屋借款利息金額具正向效果,勞動性質所得(如薪資與退職所得)則有負向影響,而在保險費部分,穩定之薪資所得對其金額具顯著正向效果,投資與資本性所得之影響則相對較小。所得階層之分析結果亦指出,捐贈與保險費之價格彈性在低所得群體中較高,顯示其對租稅誘因變化更為敏感,至於購屋借款利息部分,則以中間所得群體對租稅價格變動之反應最為顯著。 This study investigates how individual taxpayers in Taiwan respond to itemized deductions for donations, insurance premiums, and mortgage interest, using income tax return data from 2022. To analyze the two-stage decision process—whether to itemize a specific deduction and how much to claim—this paper employs the Heckman selection model and estimates it using maximum likelihood estimation (MLE). The analysis further incorporates differences in income sources, income brackets, and individual characteristics to explore behavioral heterogeneity.
The results show that the tax price elasticities of donations and insurance premiums are significantly negative and greater than one in absolute value, indicating high sensitivity to tax incentives for these deductions. In contrast, the elasticity of mortgage interest is also negative but less than one in magnitude, likely due to its long-term and contractual nature, which limits short-term adjustments. The effects of income sources also vary: capital income such as interest, rent, and royalties is positively associated with donation and mortgage interest deductions, while earned income like wages and pensions tends to reduce those deductions. However, for insurance premiums, wage income—being stable and predictable—has a strong positive effect, whereas capital income shows weaker influence. Additionally, income-group analysis reveals that low-income taxpayers are more responsive to tax incentives for donations and insurance premiums, whereas middle-income taxpayers are the most responsive when it comes to mortgage interest deductions. |
