I develop and calibrate a quantitative model of multinational firms to study how tariffs affect production locations, exports, and foreign direct investment. Counterfactual tariff experiments examine the reorganization of global production networks, firms’ market participation, and economic welfare.
We study the 2017 Tax Cuts and Jobs Act using a dynamic general equilibrium model with multinational profit shifting and transfer pricing. A three-country framework, comprising two producing countries and a tax haven, captures cross-border intangible-asset channels. The analysis examines how corporate tax reform affects multinational investment and aggregate output, and how profit shifting shapes those effects.
