Source(s): National Bureau of Statistics of China, Jin (2012) and the author's calculation. Among them, the “Tax's share in GDP” is defined as the ratio of government tax revenue to GDP plus deficit ratio to match the baseline model where there's no deficit and government debt; the “real interest rate” is defined as the benchmark one-year loan interest rate minus the year-on-year increase in CPI, since China had high inflation rate from 1993 to 1995, so we use the average value from 1996 to 2015
