摘要

我们在一个具有人力资本外部性的生命周期王朝模型中研究了育儿假补贴对经济增长和福利的影响。这种外部性会导致生育率上升、育儿时间和儿童人力资本支出减少，以及增长和福利低于有效水平。有效的政策要求对工作假期（包括育儿假）和劳动收入进行补贴，补贴资金来自一次性税收。基于美国数据的校准意味着，如果通过增加劳动所得税来资助每位父母 7.8 周的全覆盖假期，年增长率将提高 0.06 个百分点，福利提高 0.027%。

Optimal parental leave subsidization with endogenous fertility and growth

We examine the growth and welfare effects of parental leave subsidization in a life-cycle dynastic model with human capital externality. Such externality causes higher fertility, less parental time and expenditure on child human capital, and lower growth and welfare than the efficient levels. Efficient policies require subsidizing work leave, which includes parental leave, and labor income financed by a lump-sum tax. Calibration based on the U.S. data implies that a fully-covered leave duration of 7.8 weeks per parent financed by an increase in labor income tax would increase the annual growth rate by 0.06 percentage points and welfare by 0.027%.
