Ethiopa Personal Income Tax Microsimulation Model: ETI-Tax-Analyzer
The model is built using the open-source Tax Analyzer Framework that enables rapid microsimulation model development with minimal coding. The data used by the model are extracted from the Ethiopia Socioeconomic Survey 2018-2019 provided to the World Bank by the Central Statistics Agency of Ethiopia.
