  • Description: The paper deals with proofing Laffer Curve. Until now it has never been proved, because lack of real statistical data as a tool for practical proof. The paper shows that from the increase of the excise on cigarettes 7 times (700%) from 22,80 leva per 1000 pieces to 155 leva per 1000 pieces, it can be constructed Laffer Curve - revenues from excise on cigarettes starts to grow, but after a turning point in 2009 every increase in the excise on the cigarettes produced less revenues (measured as a percentage of GDP). At the end of the paper author makes a simulation and proves that the Laffer curve on cigarettes is one way street i.e. every reduction back of the excise can not produce more revenues
