The Shifting of Corporate Capital Acquisition Tax Subsidies: An Empirical Analysis

Abstract

dc:description

This study investigates whether corporations shift the benefits associated with capital acquisition tax subsidies, and whether such shifting behavior is affected by the competitive pressures in the marketplace (as reflected by industry barriers to entry). The capital acquisition tax subsidy is defined as the sum of the tax savings derived from the investment tax credit and accelerated (or excess tax) depreciation deductions, as disclosed in corporate financial statements.
