Abstract:This paper evaluates the provincial average labor effective tax rate and human capital level in China by the international standard methods,then analyses the influence of regional development level and labor effective tax rate on human capital and its inner logic based on provincial panel data model with variable coefficients in 1998—2016.And the paper further analyses the differences among regional income level,labor effective tax rate and human capital in different provinces in China.The study finds that the regional income level and human capital accumulation are positively correlated.Under current tax system in China,the income effect is greater than the replacing effect of labor income tax.But the impact is different among regions.In eastern China,there is a significant positive correlation between the human capital accumulation and the labor effective tax rate,but no significant positive correlation between the human capital accumulation and the regional per capita income.In central and western China,human capital accumulation,regional per capita income and labor effective tax rate show a significant direct correlation.At last,this paper explains the empirical conclusions and proposes the countermeasures to improve the human capital accumulation in different regions.
