On April 26, President Trump presented a one page sketch of his long-heralded major tax reform, including some bare bones on corporate taxation. Besides slashing corporate income tax rates to a flat 15 percent and an even lower one-off rate for repatriating offshore funds, the plan remains quiet...

President Biden has proposed an increase in corporate taxes to help "pay for" the American Families Plan. An examination of who actually pays corporate taxes shows that the impact of an increase in corporate taxes may be less than imagined and those who "pay" include many who are not the...

Using a firm-level panel data set I assess whether dynamic models of investment provide an empirically fruitful framework for analyzing tax effects on changes in capital stock. In particular I estimate a one-step error correction model (ECM) complementing the usual estimation of a distributed...

Due to the complexity of the alternative minimum tax (AMT), marginal tax rates (MTR) estimation studies deem AMT firms' MTRs almost impossible to estimate. We develop an analytical model for estimating AMT firms' MTRs. The model shows that AMT firms' MTRs are essentially the opportunity cost of...

This paper examines if firms shift income out of years with high corporate tax rates into years when tax cuts are anticipated. Such intertemporal shifting can be one explanation for the stability of corporate tax revenues in Central and Eastern Europe, despite the major decline in the corporate...

This paper analyses the effectiveness of the corporate income tax as an automatic stabilizer. It employs a unique firm-level dataset of German manufacturers combining financial statements with firm-specific information about credit market restrictions. The results show that approximately 20 per...

This paper explores how corporate income tax reform can help Japan increase investment and boost potential growth. Using international and Japan-specific empirical estimates of corporate tax elasticities, investment is predicted to expand by around 0.4 percent for each point of rate reduction....

This article addresses the question whether net operating loss (NOL) observations can be implemented in the measurement of corporate tax avoidance and how the handling of losses affects the measurement outcome. I find that the implementation of NOLs in the measurement of tax avoidance is...
