Optimal Tax Depreciation Lives and Charges under Regulatory Constraints

De Waegenaere, Anja; Wielhouwer, J.L. - Tilburg University, Center for Economic Research - 2001

Depreciation is not only a representation of the loss in asset-value over time.It is also a strategic tool for management and can be used to minimize tax payments.In this paper we derive the depreciation scheme that minimizes the expected value of the present value of future tax payments for two...

Intersection theorems with a continuum of intersection points

Talman, Dolf; Herings, P.J.J. - Tilburg University, Center for Economic Research - 1994

In all existing intersection theorems conditions are given under which acertain subset of acollection of sets has a non-empty intersection. In this paper conditions are formulated under which the intersection is a continuum of points satisfying some interesting topological properties. In this...
