Resumo(s)
This work is an analysis of the Portuguese Tax System, which objective is the calculation of the effective marginal and average tax rate on low income households and to understand how government transfers and the tax system affect their disposable income. We will observe that the highest effective marginal tax rates occur for very low
income households due to transfers decrease, and for very small intervals of income. The tax system is overall progressive, since the effective average tax rate increases as gross income rises.
