In some cases measurements of marginal effective tax rates (METRS) have been used as a diagnostic tool in determining either the efficiency attributes of various Page 11 reforms or the pattern of prereform investment distortions. The METR tries to take account of all investment-related taxes and tax provisions in estimating how much of a marginal investment's before-tax return is absorbed by taxes. 4 According to this approach, the efficiency goal of tax reform requires a reduction in the dispersion of METRS across different sectors and investors in the economy while a smaller aggregate METR indicates success in reducing tax-induced distortions in the intertemporal allocation of resources.
