Abstract

The 1988 Committee to Advise on Australia's Immigration Policies uses ORANI projections of increasing GDP per head as indicators of the economic benefits of immigration. The authors show that the projections imply that immigration reduces incumbents' pretax real incomes, leaving their posttax incomes unchanged. The rise in GDP per head is due to immigrants' relatively high participation rates. The authors argue that distributional information is important in assessing the effects of immigration.
