Download or read book Principles of Taxation in the United States written by Fabio Ambrosio and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2020-10-04 with total page 370 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Taxation is a discipline that does not receive sufficient academic attention. It is typically viewed as a subset of law, accounting, public policy, economics, or finance. In this respect, most academic efforts in the field of taxation are shadowed by a mother discipline. There is currently an unprecedented need to approach tax pedagogy in a way that is independent of another discipline. This book caters to that real and unmet need in tax pedagogy. One of the book’s advantages is that it is not tied to a specific tax year and does not coddle the reader with volumes of time-sensitive information. In this book the tax year is never the focus, as the center stage is reserved for teaching the principles and skills necessary to independently find answers. The reader will learn to appreciate the complexity of the American tax system and will be endowed with the contextual understanding necessary to formulate educated opinions about how taxes work and, most importantly, why. Contrary to common belief, taxation in the United States has remained fairly stable for the last 100 years. This book uses the federal individual income tax as a vehicle to unveil the mechanics that make up the American tax system. This book is essential reading for students taking a first course in taxation, at the undergraduate or graduate level, as part of programs in accounting, law, public administration, or business at large.

Download or read book Taxation History Theory Law and Administration written by Parthasarathi Shome and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2021-04-09 with total page 507 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Tax practitioners are unfamiliar with tax theory. Tax economists remain unfamiliar with tax law and tax administration. Most textbooks relate mainly to the US, UK or European experiences. Students in emerging economies remain unfamiliar with their own taxation history. This textbook fills those gaps. It covers the concept of taxes in regards to their rationale, principles, design, and common errors. It addresses distortions in consumer choices and production decisions caused by tax and redressals. The main principles of taxation—efficiency, equity, stabilization, revenue productivity, administrative feasibility, international neutrality—are presented and discussed. The efficiency principle requires the minimisation of distortions in the market caused by tax. Equity in taxation is another principle that is maintained through progressivity in the tax structure. Similarly, other principles have their own ramifications that are also addressed. A country’s constitutional specification of tax assignment to different levels of government—central, state, municipal—are elaborated. The UK is more centralised than the US and India. India has amended its constitution to introduce a goods and services tax (GST) covering both central and state governments. Drafting of tax law is crucial for clarity and this aspect is addressed. Furthermore, the author illustrates different types of taxes such as individual income tax, corporate income tax, wealth tax, retail sales/value added/goods and services tax, selective excises, property tax, minimum taxes such as the minimum alternate tax (MAT), cash-flow tax, financial transactions tax, fringe benefits tax, customs duties and export taxes, environment tax and global carbon tax, and user charges. An emerging concern regarding the inadequacy of international taxation of multinational corporations is covered in some detail. Structural aspects of tax administration are given particular attention.

Download or read book Taxation written by Martin O'Neill and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2018-07-19 with total page 272 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is the first book to give a collective treatment of philosophical issues relating to tax. The tax system is central to the operation of states and to the ways in which states interact with individual citizens. Taxes are used by states to fund the provision of public goods and public services, to engage in direct or indirect forms of redistribution, and to mould the behaviour of individual citizens. As the contributors to this volume show, there are a number of pressing and thorny philosophical issues relating to the tax system, and these issues often connect in fascinating ways with foundational questions regarding property rights, public justification, democracy, state neutrality, stability, political psychology, and other moral and political issues. Many of these deep and fascinating philosophical questions about tax have not received as much sustained attention as they clearly merit. The aim of advancing the debate about tax in political philosophy has both general and more specific aspects, ranging across both over-arching issues regarding the tax system as a whole and more specific issues relating to particular forms of tax policy. Thinking clearly about tax is not an easy task, as much that is of central importance is missed if one proceeds at too great a level of abstraction, and issues of conceptual and normative importance often only come sharply into focus when viewed against real-world questions of implementation and feasibility. Serious philosophical work on the tax system will often therefore need to be interdisciplinary, and so the discussion in this book includes a number of scholars whose expertise spans across neighbouring disciplines to philosophy, including political science, economics, public policy, and law.

Download or read book Taxation Principles and Practices in Nigeria written by Johnbest Churchill and published by GRIN Verlag. This book was released on 2022-12-07 with total page 250 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Academic Paper from the year 2022 in the subject Law - Tax / Fiscal Law, grade: 4.5, National Open University of Nigeria, language: English, abstract: Taxation is perhaps the oldest recognized profession in the world. It has always been with us, it is still with us, and it will continue to be with us. According to chapter two, verse one of St. Luke's gospel of the Holy Bible which reported the birth of our Lord Jesus Christ with a decree from Augustus Ceasar that all the world should be taxed. "and it came to pass in those days that there went a decree from Ceasar Augustus that all the world should be taxed;" (and this taxing was first made when Cyrenious was governor of Asyria). This Biblical record is perhaps the origin of taxation. Taxation may be defined as the compulsory contribution imposed by a public authority, irrespective of the amount of services rendered to the taxpayer in return. Taxation can also be defined according to Ola (1987) as the demand made by the Government of a country for compulsory payment of money by the citizens of the country. Tabansi (1997) says tax is a levy imposed by the Government against the income, profit or wealth of the individual, partnership and corporate organization. The above definitions emphasizes the fact that taxation is a compulsory levy or contribution that is imposed by the Government on the people resident in the country. Since it is a compulsory payment made either directly or indirectly, refusal to comply becomes an offence, which attracts punishment. Taxation is divided into various types such as Income Tax, Corporation Tax, Capital Gain Tax etc. In Nigeria, tax is levied by the authority of Federal Government Income Tax Management Act of 1961 (ITMA) and subsequent amendment, including the finance (Miscellaneous Taxation Provisions) Decree 1992 and the finance (Miscellaneous Provisions) Decree 1997. The tax year of most government establishment is based on the fiscal year, which is the normal calendar year and ranges from 1st January to 31st December of the same year. This income tax year is also called the year of assessment, for instance the 1999 year of assessment is the 1999 fiscal year.
