A 117.9 KB PDF file published on figshare by Yunkyung Lee on May 15, 2026. It contains analytical and simulation results evaluating the system-wide market and welfare impacts of a proposed nationwide sugar-sweetened beverage tax in the United States.

Use Cases

• Simulating market price changes for soda and fruit juice based on the described tax model.
