Model for Public-Private Partnership in the Tax-Free Setup
(Wydawnictwo Uniwersytetu Rzeszowskiego, 2015) Młodkowski, Paweł; Tastulekov, Serikzhan
The concept of public-private partnership as a vehicle for arranging provision of public goods or achieving socially desirable public policy goals has a long history and multitude of studies. This paper offers a simple, but crucial modification of the basic model of the public-private partnership financing by Engel, Fisher and Galetovic (2007). Due to growing popularity of PPP in creating and operating infrastructure in resource-based economies, our innovation is intended to adjust the model setup to specific public finance conditions. It happens that in case of many resource-based economies the central government operates in favorable conditions. Budgets in oil&gas exporting countries do not face any constraints on public spending. This is sometimes associated with a tax-free system of public finance. As a consequence, models for optimizing social welfare by benevolent, riskneutral planner with taxes and cost of public funds do not match the actual situation in countries we wish to focus on. The choice for the government, when PPP is considered is simple. Decision concerns the scale of subsidy. While the subsidy is not financed with distortionary taxation, the cost of public funds is different from what we find in available formulations of models. Therefore, in our paper we discuss the specific features of tax-free, resource-based economies and we modify the original model by Engel, Fisher and Galetovic (2007) to arrive at a formulation more appropriate for Arab countries, or other, where distortionary taxation does not exist. The main findings and conclusions are as follows: (1) without taxes there are no negative externalities of financing subsidies to support PPP, (2) some of the benefits of the PPP are not present without distortionary taxation.
