Its key contribution is the development of a summary measure of the impact of administrative interventions-the 'enforcement elasticity of tax revenue'-that is a sufficient statistic for the behavioral response to such interventions, much as the elasticity of taxable income serves as a sufficient statistic for the response to tax rates. Amongst the applications are characterizations of the optimal balance between policy and administrative measures, and of the optimal compliance gap.
