This paper argues that if education is financed by parents' current income a lump-sum tax reduces inequality if all parents have strict investment incentives. However, if some parents are indifferent there is a possible decrease in the wage gap via a contrary indirect tax effect which drops the returns of schooling. Under strict incentives social mobility is not affected, but it increases if skilled parents have weak incentives and decreases if unskilled parents are indifferent in their investment decision.", note="Andrea Schneider", note="Systemvoraussetzungen: Acrobat Reader.", url="https://d-nb.info/997930993/34", url="http://www.hsu-hh.de/fgvwl/index_ZUsJL8FkdjvDZnaS.html", url="http://opus.zbw-kiel.de/volltexte/2008/6938/pdf/paper_68.pdf", url="http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:gbv:705-opus-17026", language="English" }
