The new edition has been completely revised, with 40 new topics and 200 articles reflecting six years of legislative changes. Each essay provides the generalist with a quick and reliable introduction to many topics but also gives tax specialists the benefit of other experts' best thinking, in a manner that makes the complex understandable. Reference lists point the reader to additional sources of information for each topic. The first edition of The Encyclopedia of Taxation and Tax Policy was selected as an Outstanding Academic Book of the Year (1999) by Choice magazine."--Publisher's website.

Download or read book Implications of a Lower Capital Gains Tax Rate in the United States written by International Monetary Fund and published by International Monetary Fund. This book was released on 1989-12-13 with total page 28 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This paper reviews the literature on the revenue implications of a lower capital gains tax rate in the United States. The existing empirical research indicates that the timing of realizations is sensitive to tax changes but is inconclusive on the long-run revenue implications. No study claims that tax revenues would increase very much on a permanent basis. The paper concludes that other aspects of a lower capital gains tax rate deserves more attention, in particular its impact on resource allocation and tax arbitrage.
Download or read book The Labyrinth of Capital Gains Tax Policy written by Leonard E. Burman and published by Brookings Institution Press. This book was released on 2010-12-01 with total page 209 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Few issues in tax policy are as divisive as the capital gains tax. Should capital gains--the increase in value of assets such as stocks or businesses--be taxed at all? If so, when should they be taxed--when they are earned, or when they are realized? Should taxes be adjusted for inflation? And should gains be taxed at both the individual and corporate levels? In this book, Leonard Burman cuts through the political rhetoric to present the facts about capital gains. He begins by explaining the complex rules that govern the taxation of capital gains, examines the kinds of assets that produce them, and the factors that can lead to gains or losses. He then reviews the effects of capital gains taxation on saving and investment and considers the arguments for and against indexing capital gains taxes for inflation, as well as other options for altering the current system.

Download or read book The Holding Period Distinction of the Capital Gains Tax written by Steven Kaplan and published by . This book was released on 1981 with total page 46 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: United States tax law distinguishes between short-term and long-term capital gains. By taxing long-term gains at a lower rate the law creates an incentive for investors to postpone the realization of short-term gains. This study examines the lock-in effect induced by the differential tax treatment of long- and short-term gains. Analysis of data on corporate stock transactions from 1973 suggests that the lock-in effect is large and, thus, causes investors to alter their investment portfolios. The existence of such an effect is inefficient and results in a reduction in capital market efficiency. The inefficiency might be justified if there were convincing reasons which supported the existence of the holding period distinction. It is commonly argued, for instance, that eliminating the distinction would encourage short-term speculation at the expense of long-term commitment to capital. It is also claimed that this would result in a loss of revenue to the government. This study relies on IRS data and simulations using the NBER-TAXSIM file to examine the validity of these arguments. The results of this study suggest that the holding period distinction is not very effective in deterring speculation and does not increase government revenues; in fact, it may decrease them.
