The course starts with background in how and why public debt has emerged as a reform agenda in development strategy. Firstly, we will study about tax. We will analyze the impact of tax on the economy, how tax burden is allocated between producers and consumers. Secondly, we will study about fiscal policy and its impact of GDP, BoP and inflation. The latter half of the course will study debt sustainability in the framework of Ramsey and Overlapping Generations Model. Our focus lies in numeral exercise.
