Download or read book Anglo American Corporate Taxation written by Steven A. Bank and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2011-09-22 with total page 265 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The UK and the USA have historically represented opposite ends of the spectrum in their approaches to taxing corporate income. Under the British approach, corporate and shareholder income taxes have been integrated under an imputation system, with tax paid at the corporate level imputed to shareholders through a full or partial credit against dividends received. Under the American approach, by contrast, corporate and shareholder income taxes have remained separate under what is called a 'classical' system in which shareholders receive little or no relief from a second layer of taxes on dividends. Steven A. Bank explores the evolution of the corporate income tax systems in each country during the nineteenth and twentieth centuries to understand the common legal, economic, political and cultural forces that produced such divergent approaches and explains why convergence may be likely in the future as each country grapples with corporate taxation in an era of globalization.

Download or read book The Effective Tax Burden of Companies in European Regions written by Lothar Lammersen and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2006-03-30 with total page 256 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The tax burden on investment or companies is an important factor for the attractiveness of a country or a region. In particular, business location and investment decisions are influenced by the relative tax burdens encountered in different regions. This study presents estimates of the effective average and marginal tax rates on company investment for 143 regions in Europe and the USA. Using the approach pioneered by Michael Devereux and Rachel Griffith, it is shown that companies face a wide variation of effective tax burdens across European regions. The results are explained by analysing the importance of specific tax provisions for the tax burden at the various locations.

Download or read book What Is Real and What Is Not in the Global FDI Network written by Jannick Damgaard and published by International Monetary Fund. This book was released on 2019-12-11 with total page 54 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Macro statistics on foreign direct investment (FDI) are blurred by offshore centers with enormous inward and outward investment positions. This paper uses several new data sources, both macro and micro, to estimate the global FDI network while disentangling real investment and phantom investment and allocating real investment to ultimate investor economies. We find that phantom investment into corporate shells with no substance and no real links to the local economy may account for almost 40 percent of global FDI. Ignoring phantom investment and allocating real investment to ultimate investors increases the explanatory power of standard gravity variables by around 25 percent.

Download or read book International Corporate Tax Avoidance A Review of the Channels Magnitudes and Blind Spots written by Sebastian Beer and published by International Monetary Fund. This book was released on 2018-07-23 with total page 45 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This paper reviews the rapidly growing empirical literature on international tax avoidance by multinational corporations. It surveys evidence on main channels of corporate tax avoidance including transfer mispricing, international debt shifting, treaty shopping, tax deferral and corporate inversions. Moreover, it performs a meta analysis of the extensive literature that estimates the overall size of profit shifting. We find that the literature suggests that, on average, a 1 percentage-point lower corporate tax rate will expand before-tax income by 1 percent—an effect that is larger than reported as the consensus estimate in previous surveys and tends to be increasing over time. The literature on tax avoidance still has several unresolved puzzles and blind spots that require further research.

Download or read book Corporate shareholder Income Taxation and Allocating Taxing Rights Between Countries written by Peter Andrew Harris and published by . This book was released on 1996 with total page 948 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This ground-breaking book from the IBFD proposes a fundamental change to the norms for the allocation of taxing rights among countries. The author uses an in-depth study of imputation systems to expose the flaws in the current international order, arguing that it is theoretically unsound. He then develops an alternative that would resolve many of the problems presented by international tax law today. Imputation systems are founded on a philosophy that corporations are not appropriate subjects of income taxation, other than as vehicles for the collection of tax, & they accordingly seek to alleviate economic double taxation. In practice they do not achieve this aim. In a domestic context, considered in the first four chapters, their inconsistencies & inaccuracies obscure the more fundamental flaws of the income taxation systems of which they form a part. In an international context, considered in the second four chapters, the difficulties associated with imputation systems highlight the deficiencies in current norms for the allocation of taxing rights among countries. The author examines those norms & finds them an inadequate basis for the international order. The alternatives he proposes would place the international taxing order on a firm theoretical footing & could be applied to any type of corporate tax system. If adopted, his proposals would obviate the need for much current international tax law. Treaties, measures for the avoidance of double taxation & many anti-avoidance measures would become superfluous. This extremely important book, based on prize-winning doctoral research, is destined to become a classic in the field. The acute perception & explication of theories underpinning international taxation make it essential reading.
