What the Billionaire Tax Act is worth to the state, by the JR method

Each setting shows the exact average of the authors' formula, not a new random run. At the main setting that is The printed figure comes from one seeded run (a run started from a fixed random number, so it gives the same draws every time), and the gap is sampling error (report, Step 6). The input labels follow the report's input table. The litigation dial reads the chapter's q (PDF pp.19-20), which the code does not apply separately (note 5). The comparison explorer's litigation dial stands at one half at the JR end. That is this same half, which here comes from the revenue draw's 0 floor. The growth dial is this OPA's illustration of growth beyond the authors' r − g (note 3).

The authors report the share below zero as the share of plausible parameter combinations with a negative net present value (PDF p.35). Their draws are independent and uniform over ranges that are themselves guesswork, so the share is not a probability that the tax loses money: it moves with those ranges, as the explorer's Rate 1.5% and Rate 4.5% settings show.
