What is Excess Burden of Taxation

When it comes to economics, one of the economic losses that society endures as a consequence of taxes or subsidies is the weight of taxation that amounts to an excessive amount. According to the theoretical framework of economics, distortions alter the quantity and kind of economic behavior in comparison to what would take place in a free market in the absence of the tax. It is possible to determine the extent of excess burdens by employing either the average cost of funds or the marginal cost of funds (MCF). It was Adam Smith who first brought up the topic of excessive burdens.
