INTRODUCTION 6 that is implemented with personal computing technology. It was developed by Statistics Canada in the late 1980s; see Statistics Canada (1989). Transfer Income Model 2 (TRIM2) TRIM2 is a static model of government tax and transfer programs, including AFDC, SSI, food stamps, school nutrition programs, Medicare, employer-sponsored health insurance, Medicaid, federal income taxes, state income taxes, and social security payroll taxes. The original TRIM was developed by the Urban Institute in the early 1970s; see Webb et al. (1982) and Webb et al. (1986).
