As práticas de tax avoidance, em períodos normais e de turbulência, podem ser alternativas viáveis a serem adotadas pelas empresas, especialmente as empresas com restrições financeiras, a fim de obter mais fontes de recursos internos com a redução de impostos sobre o lucro (Effective Tax Rate- ETR). Desse modo, empresas com restrições financeiras, para quem o acesso ao financiamento externo se torna mais oneroso que o financiamento interno e, que desejam sair desse cenário, poderiam atentar para uma fonte alternativa de financiamento por meio de práticas de tax avoidance. Assim, objetivou-se analisar se as empresas com restrições financeiras de capital aberto que atuam no Brasil, buscam reduzir os impostos sobre o lucro como uma alternativa de fonte de financiamento interno, mais do que empresas não restritas, especialmente em momentos de crise. O período analisado foi de 2011 a 2015 e a amostra contemplou 615 firmas-anos. Utilizou-se a análise de dados em painel e os resultados mostram que, ao contrário do que se esperava, empresas com restrições financeiras aumentam sua ETR. No entanto, em períodos de crise econômica (2014-2015) ocorre o inverso, isto é, empresas restritas minimizam custos com impostos sobre o lucro em até 6,5%, mais do que empresas não restritas. Finalmente, as empresas brasileiras restritas intensificam a preocupação com a redução de ETR apenas na crise, e embora não seja o cenário ideal, tal comportamento pode ser explicado pelo maior risco de default nesses períodos de turbulência, dado sua condição inicial além de possível associação com a diminuição das fiscalizações tributárias nesse período. Pela ótica da variável ETR Diferencial, é possível observar que em períodos de crise as empresas com restrições financeiras se afastam da ETR nominal tornando a ETR mais agressiva. Assim, constatou-se que as possíveis práticas de tax avoidance, por parte das empresas que necessitam sair da condição de restrição financeira, não são uniformemente realizadas ao longo dos períodos.

SYNOPSIS U.S. corporations have the ability to avoid paying domestic taxes to achieve an effective tax rate that is much lower than the statutory federal tax rate. This study evaluates the extent that individuals differ in their attitudes about the ethicality of corporations avoiding domestic taxes to achieve low effective tax rates. We also examine the extent to which the specific tax avoidance method used by corporations to access a low effective tax rate affects perceived ethicality. Eighty-two members of the general public and 112 accountants participated in an experiment with two participant groups and three tax avoidance methods manipulated randomly between subjects. The results indicate a significant interaction between participant group and tax avoidance method, with the general public considering shifting profits out of the country to achieve a low effective tax rate to be highly unethical, while the accountants find tax avoidance from carrying forward prior operating losses to be highly ethical. Further, mediation analysis indicates that perceived fairness and legality mediate the effects of participant type on perceived ethicality. Mediation analysis also reveals that sense of fairness and legality mediate the link between tax avoidance method and perceived ethicality. We conclude by considering the study's policy, practice, and research implications.

ABSTRACT While not explicitly stated, many tax avoidance studies seek to investigate tax avoidance that is the result of firms' deliberate actions. However, measures of firms' tax avoidance can also be affected by factors outside the firms' control—tax surprises. This study examines potential complications caused by tax surprises when measuring tax avoidance by focusing on one specific type of surprise tax savings—the unanticipated tax benefit from employees' exercise of stock options. Because the cash effective tax rate (ETR) includes the benefits of this tax surprise, the cash ETR mismeasures firms' deliberate tax avoidance. The analyses conducted show this mismeasurement is material and can lead to both Type I and Type II errors in studies of deliberate tax avoidance. Suggestions to aid researchers in mitigating these concerns are also provided.

Aim of this research is to determine the effect of accounting conservatism and tax avoidance on firm value. The type of data used in this study is secondary data in the form of annual reports of manufacturing companies listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange (IDX) for the 2013-2016 period. The number of samples is 48 manufacturing companies. The data analysis technique used is regression analysis. The results of the study show that conservatism has a positive effect on firm value, tax avoidance has a negative effect on firm value. While simultaneously conservatism and tax avoidance have a positive effect on firm value. Thus this study supports that accounting conservatism has a role as a function of monitoring the company's investment policies and one way to maintain the value of the company in limiting losses that may arise from poorly performing investment decisions. The company that conducts tax avoidance (has a smaller effective tax rate) is an effort made by management to reduce the company's tax burden and is able to minimize expenditure for tax purposes so that management looks good in the eyes of shareholders.

A temática sobre tributos é considerada interdisciplinar e vem sendo estudada com muito mais intensidade nos anos recentes. No âmbito da pesquisa em contabilidade, a medida de agressividade fiscal Effective-Tax-Rate (ETR) é considerada como uma das principais bases da pesquisa no campo, e é analisada no presente estudo. O objetivo deste trabalho é fazer uma revisão bibliográfica que teve por objetivo verificar o estado da arte da pesquisa sobre Agressividade Fiscal (Tax Agressiveness) em periódicos nacionais e internacionais, no período de 2013 a 2017, devido ao fato desse linha de tempo possuir artigos de maior relevância. A metodologia empregada foi o cálculo aritmético da média das citações e do Índice H de cada periódico, como forma de averiguar os artigos com maior relevância. Foi realizada uma Análise Fatorial por Correspondência (AFC) com o software Iramuteq no intuito de mostrar quais palavras foram mais utilizadas nos artigos apurados, destacando-se tax, empirical e investors como as palavras mais utilizadas na literatura do tax avoidance. O estudo bibliométrico revelou 72 artigos internacionais e 8 artigos nacionais, sendo que no cenário nacional não se encontram trabalhos relevantes devido à falta de citações na plataforma Spell. Quanto aos papers internacionais, encontrou-se uma predominância do periódico Accounting Review, com cerca de 32,5% das citações na pesquisa sobre agressividade fiscal. Quanto à metodologia, a mais frequente utilizada foi o Método por Mínimos Quadrados Ordinários, de maneira global. Considerando isso, o presente artigo contribui de forma catalisadora para a pesquisa em agressividade fiscal e tributos nacional.

Tax avoidance is an important element of management in the global economy. Managers use tax havens for reducing a company’s effective tax rate. The most common practices in international tax planning can be divided into three groups: loans and their related interest, royalties, and transfer pricing. The aim of this article is to find the determinants of the tax burden faced by foreign-owned subsidiaries. Therefore, a model was created for the tax burden, focusing on the special position of subsidiaries within international tax planning. For this purpose, taxes/outcomes was established as a new dependent variable. The panel data used include Czech companies that are owned by parent companies located in other EU countries. The model distinguishes EU tax havens from regular member states; sector dummy variables are also included. The regression model that was created did not confirm the assumed dependencies. Rather, it indicated other important determinants: profitability, the share of intangible assets, size, and the dummy variable for the ICT sector. Based on the regression results, the independent variables connected with known tax planning schemes have relatively low importance. The significance of these results can be seen in the subsequent conclusions. First of all, there is no difference between the subsidiaries’ tax burdens based on the parent company’s location. Corporations use international tax planning whether or not they are owned from a tax haven. The second significant conclusion indicates the importance of certain sectors and their attributes concerning the tax burden. Companies from the ICT sector are linked to a lower tax burden. On the other hand, the dependencies within the financial sector are not statistically significant. From the perspective of further research, it would be constructive to incorporate the subsidiary’s position within the group.

Corporate social responsibility (CSR) has aroused heated discussion in recent years. The public generally believe that the enterprises with good CSR performance will not be involved in aggressive tax avoidance issues. However, as several famous socially responsible technology companies were found to be involved in aggressive tax avoidance, the association between those two variables has been doubted. This paper analyzes the effect of CSR on tax avoidance with the evidence of Chinese listed companies from 2016 to 2020. The finding is that good CSR performance leads to an increase in effective tax rate. In other words, the higher the CSR report score, the higher tax payment and the lower tendency in tax avoidance.

The primary objective of this paper is to empirically examine whether corporate social responsibility (CSR) influences corporate tax avoidance (CTA) of Chinese listed companies. The study is based on a sample of 3481 firm-year observations from 2009 to 2015 using CSR ratings from the Rankins (RKS) corporate social responsibility ratings agency in China, and all financial data extracted from the China Stock Market and Accounting Research (CSMAR). The authors foundthat CSR is negatively related to the current and cash effective tax rate (proxies of corporate tax avoidance), suggesting that responsible firms are more involved in tax avoidance as compared to less responsible firms. Their findings are robust against different control variables. Additionally, to the best of the authors’ knowledge, the paper is one of the first to document an empirical association between CSR and corporate tax avoidance of Chinese listed companies.
