How would changing the VAT threshold from £90k affect revenues?

Our new firm microsimulation model shows:
• £70k threshold: +£640m revenue
• £100k threshold: -£370m revenue
• £120k threshold: -£1.1bn revenue

All estimates for 2026-27.

🤝 Big news: PolicyEngine and @nber.org
have signed an MOU to ensure researchers worldwide continue accessing critical tax microsimulation tools.

We're building an open-source TAXSIM emulator, combining NBER's 50+ years of tax expertise with modern open-source infrastructure.

🎉 PolicyEngine has been awarded a $300,000 Phase I POSE grant from NSF (Award No. 2518372) to expand our open-source platform, build sustainable governance, and grow our contributor community! https://policyengine.org/us/research/nsf-pose-phase-1-grant

How do energy policies like carbon taxes, LIHEAP, or EV credits impact households? We recap PolicyEngine's open-source tools for analyzing these effects in the US & UK.

Just back from EA Global SF with the @policyengine.org team! Incredible conversations with folks tackling the world's most pressing problems. With AI transforming society at unprecedented speed, our work on transparent policy simulation feels more urgent than ever.

A fun new tool from @maxghenis.bsky.social : a calculator for charitable contributions, including both state and federal effects and interactions with other deductions. Lots of other good bells and whistles. @nicduquette.bsky.social should be into this.

Great to see @pn3policy.bsky.social continuing to expand the breadth and depth of their Policy Impact Calculator here at APPAM! Among their many sources are tax calculations from @policyengineus.bsky.social.

At 2:00 pm GMT on November 25th @nikhilwoodruff.bsky.social and Vahid Ahmadi will review our analyses of Autumn Budget reforms, and also preview breakdowns by constituency which we'll launch in the coming months
