Table A.1. Income distributions and quasi-progressive dual tax schedule.
Consider also the following two reforms: T1,3(x,y) = T(x,y) — 0.1 ∙ L(x) — 0.24 ∙ y and
T3,2(x,y) = T(x,y) — 0.232 ∙ x — 0.6585 ∙ (y — K(y)), which applied to the above tax and
income distributions result in the table below:

Table A.2. Dual tax cuts.
Observe that the two reforms proposed are not separately labor and capital yield-equivalent,
although they are globally yield-equivalent -the aggregate total tax liability is approximately
equal to 7.04-. That is, Condition 1 does not hold.
On the other hand, if we take into account the discrete definition of the residual progres-
sion it can be obtained17 that, given an income distribution z = (z1 ≤ ... ≤ zn), and two
reforms T1(z) y T2(z), if ψT1 (zi, zi+1) > ψT2 (zi, zi+1) for some zi, i ∈ {1, ..., n — 1}, then
(17)
V1(zi+1) > V2(zi+1)
Vι(zi) V2(zi) .
Hence, it can be checked that, by (17),
V1L3(3,4) < V3,2(3,4) V1K3(3,4) > V3K2(3,4) V1,3(3,4) > V3,2(3,4)
