Suppose that the Earned Income Tax Credit is set up so that a maximum payment of $3,000 can be earned when a qualified worker earns $10,000. This payment represents a subsidy of 30 cents for each additional dollar earned up to $10,000. Workers earning between $10,000 and $14,000 are eligible for the maximum payment. Once labor market earnings exceed $14,000, additional earnings reduce the subsidy by 45 cents for each dollar earned. The going wage rate is $10 per hour....
