This paper examines the effect of the formulary apportionment system on state-level economic development. All three apportionment factors, when combined with the corporate tax rate employed by each state, are shown to have a significant negative association with the percentage change in manufacturing employment. However, further analysis suggests that the corporate tax rate, and not the apportionment formula, may be driving employment growth. Also, the findings do not support the importance of the throwback rule or the recent trend to overweight the sales factor in attracting economic development to a state.

This study focuses on how best performing listed companies in CSE make strategies in tax planning to reduce tax liabilities without violating rules and regulations imposed by the Tax Authority. In this study, the corporate tax planning was measured by using the Effective Tax Rate (ETR) and the financial performance was measured by using Return on Assets (ROA). The sample of the study was designed based on criteria namely, the largest and most liquid companies in the Sri Lankan equity market and the sample period was restricted for the period 10 years from 2009-2018. The sample represents seventeen (17) companies which are used to calculate the S&P SL 20 index. Data was collected through the published annual reports of CSE of the selected listed companies during the selected financial time period. Co-integration regression along with Panel Dynamic Ordinary Least Squares (DOLS) statistical technique was used to explore this study. Johansen co-integration test confirmed to run the panel DOLS. According to the result of that, corporate tax planning has a negative impact on the financial performance of Sri Lankan best-performing companies listed in CSE however, which is not statistically significant at 5% level. It provides evidence that there is no significant impact from corporate tax planning strategies to the financial performance of listed companies in CSE. This evidence implies that Sri Lankan firms do not utilize the loopholes embedded in the Sri Lankan tax law efficiently. Keywords: Corporate Tax Planning, Colombo Stock Exchange, Co-integration regression, Effective Tax Rate, Financial Performance, Panel Dynamic Ordinary Least Squares, Return on Assets.

The variables in this study is the method of calculating income tax article 21 which includes paid company, paid employer, paid company by using Gross Up.  The result of research shows that (1) Gross Up method can help the implementation of tax planning, because by using this method the company's operational expenses increase that is the burden of allowance PPh 21 which is charged to the company. So that corporate profits can be minimized. (2) Tax planning using Gross Up method is a concept to improve the efficiency of calculation of PPh 21 which is deducted by the employer and can determine the amount of tax allowance paid by the employer. (3) In this way the company will benefit on a fiscal basis because the income tax benefit of PPh 21 may be a deduction from the taxable income of the employer (the company). The logical consequence of this method is the amount of tax payable 21 which will be paid by the company will be big due to the added element of tax allowance in the procedure of calculation of income tax 21 employees

ABSTRACT: This manuscript develops an investment model that incorporates the joint consideration of income shifting by multinational parents to or from a foreign subsidiary and the decision to repatriate or reinvest foreign earnings. The model demonstrates that, while there is always an incentive to shift income into the U.S. from high-foreign-tax-rate subsidiaries, income shifting out of the U.S. to low-tax-rate countries occurs only under certain conditions. The model explicitly shows how the firms' required rate of return for foreign investments affects both repatriation and income shifting decisions. We show how the model can be used to refine extant research. We then apply it to a novel setting—using e-commerce for tax planning. We find firms in manufacturing industries with high levels of e-commerce have economically significant lower cash effective tax rates. This effect is magnified for firms that are less likely to have taxable repatriations. JEL Classifications: G38, H25, H32, M41.

ABSTRACT This instructional case explores the ethical issues surrounding the corporate tax-planning and tax-avoidance strategies of multinational organizations. Drawing on the real-world experiences of SABMiller, one of the world's largest beverage companies, this case provides a launching point for students to consider the ethics of corporate tax planning. The ethics of multinational tax practices, especially the use of tax havens, has recently become the focus of media and legislative debate in both the U.S. and the U.K., and many well-respected companies, such as General Electric, Apple Inc., and Starbucks are now feeling the pressure to reform. In a post-case learning assessment, students demonstrated significant improvement in their understanding and indicated that they enjoyed discussing this controversial issue. The “Implementation Guidance” section and Teaching Notes offer guidance for in-class discussion of the ethical and tax issues in this case.


Significance This framework laid out two pillars of reform. Pillar One would see large companies liable for tax in the end-market jurisdiction where their goods or services are used or consumed. Pillar Two would set a minimum tax rate of 15%. Impacts Ireland will probably support the reforms by October, and in return it may get some concessions over implementation or sectoral coverage. Reduced corporate tax revenue may result in tighter fiscal spending, which would play into the hands of the opposition Sinn Fein. The corporate tax proposals come at a particularly bad time for the Irish economy, which is already facing the consequences of Brexit.
