The paper derives the consequences of a local sales tax within the framework of a spatial, general equilibrium model of an 'open' city. The model is initially set up for the residential economy only, with an exogenously given wage rate. Results of the simulations reveal that there exists a well-defined sales tax Laffer curve and an optimal revenue ...
