Abstract
The price increases caused by taxes on alcoholic beverages are expected to reduce consumption and thus external costs. In our study,the correlation between special consumptipon tax (SCT) on alcoholic beverages and amount of alcoholic consumption in Turkey was intended to be explained using short and long run causality tests (Granger and Toda-Yamamato) and linear regression analysis technique. In the light of obtained findings, a one- way causality was found between SCT on and consumption amount of alcoholic beverages, in short and long run. In the regression analysis inverse correlation was found between consumption amount and taxes on alcholic beverages, which show parallelism with the results in the literature.

Abstract
Alkollü içecekler üzerinden alınan vergilerin neden olduğu fiyat artışlarının tüketimi ve dolayısıyla neden olduğu dışsal maliyetleri azaltması beklenmektedir. Çalışmamızda Türkiye’de alkolü ürünler üzerinden alınan Özel Tüketim Vergisi (ÖTV) ile alkollü ürünlerin tüketim miktarı arasındaki ilişki kısa ve uzun dönem nedensellik testleri (Granger ve Toda-Yamamato) ve doğrusal regresyon analizi tekniği kullanılarak açıklanmaya çalışılmıştır. Elde edilen bulgular ışığında, alkollü içecekler üzerinden alınan ÖTV ile alkollü içeceklerin tüketim miktarları arasında kısa ve uzun dönemde tek yönlü bir nedensellik tespit edilirken; regresyon analizinde alkollü ürünlerin tüketim miktarı ile alkollü ürünler üzerinden alınan vergiler arasındaki ters yönlü ilişkinin varlığını belirten literatürü destekler sonuç elde edilmiştir.
