Calculates the marginal payroll, individual income, and combined
tax rates for every tax filing unit.
The marginal tax rates are approximated as the change in tax
liability caused by a small increase (the finite_diff) in the variable
specified by the variable_str divided by that small increase in the
variable, when wrt_full_compensation is false.
If wrt_full_compensation is true, then the marginal tax rates
are computed as the change in tax liability divided by the change
in total compensation caused by the small increase in the variable
(where the change in total compensation is the sum of the small
increase in the variable and any increase in the employer share of
payroll taxes caused by the small increase in the variable).
If using 'e00200s' as variable_str, the marginal tax rate for all
records where MARS != 2 will be missing. If you want to perform a
function such as np.mean() on the returned arrays, you will need to
account for this.
Parameters
----------
variable_str: string
specifies type of income or expense that is increased to compute
the marginal tax rates. See Notes for list of valid variables.
negative_finite_diff: boolean
specifies whether or not marginal tax rates are computed by
subtracting (rather than adding) a small finite_diff amount
to the specified variable.
zero_out_calculated_vars: boolean
specifies value of zero_out_calc_vars parameter used in calls
of Calculator.calc_all() method.
wrt_full_compensation: boolean
specifies whether or not marginal tax rates on earned income
are computed with respect to (wrt) changes in total compensation
that includes the employer share of OASDI and HI payroll taxes.
Returns
-------
mtr_payrolltax: an array of marginal payroll tax rates.
mtr_incometax: an array of marginal individual income tax rates.
mtr_combined: an array of marginal combined tax rates, which is
the sum of mtr_payrolltax and mtr_incometax.
Notes
-----
Valid variable_str values are:
'e00200p', taxpayer wage/salary earnings (also included in e00200);
'e00200s', spouse wage/salary earnings (also included in e00200);

Parameters
----------
policy: Policy class object
this argument must be specified and object is copied for internal use
records: Records class object
this argument must be specified and object is copied for internal use
verbose: boolean
specifies whether or not to write to stdout data-loaded and

sync_years: boolean
specifies whether or not to synchronize policy year and records year;
default value is true.
consumption: Consumption class object
specifies consumption response assumptions used to calculate
"effective" marginal tax rates; default is None, which implies
no consumption responses assumed in marginal tax rate calculations;
when argument is an object it is copied for internal use
behavior: Behavior class object
specifies behavioral responses used by Calculator; default is None,

Calculates the marginal payroll, individual income, and combined
tax rates for every tax filing unit.
The marginal tax rates are approximated as the change in tax
liability caused by a small increase (the finite_diff) in the variable
specified by the variable_str divided by that small increase in the
variable, when wrt_full_compensation is false.
If wrt_full_compensation is true, then the marginal tax rates
are computed as the change in tax liability divided by the change
in total compensation caused by the small increase in the variable
(where the change in total compensation is the sum of the small
increase in the variable and any increase in the employer share of
payroll taxes caused by the small increase in the variable).
If using 'e00200s' as variable_str, the marginal tax rate for all
records where MARS != 2 will be missing. If you want to perform a
function such as np.mean() on the returned arrays, you will need to
account for this.
Parameters
----------
variable_str: string
specifies type of income or expense that is increased to compute
the marginal tax rates. See Notes for list of valid variables.
negative_finite_diff: boolean
specifies whether or not marginal tax rates are computed by
subtracting (rather than adding) a small finite_diff amount
to the specified variable.
zero_out_calculated_vars: boolean
specifies value of zero_out_calc_vars parameter used in calls
of Calculator.calc_all() method.
wrt_full_compensation: boolean
specifies whether or not marginal tax rates on earned income
are computed with respect to (wrt) changes in total compensation
that includes the employer share of OASDI and HI payroll taxes.
Returns
-------
mtr_payrolltax: an array of marginal payroll tax rates.
mtr_incometax: an array of marginal individual income tax rates.
mtr_combined: an array of marginal combined tax rates, which is
the sum of mtr_payrolltax and mtr_incometax.
Notes
-----
Valid variable_str values are:
'e00200p', taxpayer wage/salary earnings (also included in e00200);
'e00200s', spouse wage/salary earnings (also included in e00200);
