Abstract

The purpose of the present paper is to investigate the economic impacts of gasoline subsidy on economic Growth of Iran. To do so, we have used time series data for the period of 1971- 2002 to estimate a system of simultaneous equations by three stages least squares (3SLS) methods. The results show that during the period under consideration, we have seen a positive but very low impact of gasoline subsidy on Iran's economic growth. In other words ,on average as a result of increasing gasoline subsidy by one billion Rials, the real GDP have increased by 250 million Rials. Also, the average elasticity of gasoline subsidy with respect to real GDP for the period is estimated to be approximately 0.09 indicating an inelastic responsiveness between gasoline subsidy and real GDP. Based on our findings, it is suggested that, the reduction of gasoline subsidy by government and implementing of the guided subsidy policy in Iran's 4th economic development and also in the 20 years economic perspective package, we can expect more favorable economic impact.
