Abstract:

This study analyzes tax avoidance risk assessment including dimension and magnitude of tax avoidance risk exposure using several enterprise-related and government-related variables. Providing far-reaching analysis and examining a relatively unexplored area of conforming tax avoidance, this study employs two measurements of tax avoidance including non-conforming and conforming tax avoidance. As an extensive analysis, this paper also examines the magnitude of tax avoidance responsiveness with respect to different types of enterprises including Permanent Establishment and foreign-invested enterprises. The results drawn from this study are paramount as the empirical approach to in tax policy formulation. Risk profiles suggested in this research are pertinent to risk engine of Compliance Risk Management (CRM) and also beneficial for Risk-Based Audit strategy formulation. Ensuring the best-fit policy formulation, these results revealed that application of tax authority’s strategy to hike tax compliance should be more likely to prevention rather than reaction. Furthermore, in the brain area of academic research, the findings also contribute to the field of tax literature by providing simultaneous empirical models including conforming and non-conforming tax avoidance model, which has been relatively unexplored in prior studies.

Abstract:

<p>The problem of tax avoidance in the European Union (EU) has existed since the beginning of the EU internal market and is an important aspect at both the national and international levels. Among the most important reasons for this phenomenon are the inconsistent regulations and solutions applied in the tax systems of individual countries, the diverse and complicated nature of fiancial instruments and structures, the insufficient cooperation of tax administrations in EU countries or harmful tax competition. This state of affairs causes negative consequences for the budgets of individual countries and discriminates against honest taxpayers, because tax profits derived from tax evasion are invested in a competitive struggle against companies that reliably settle accounts with the tax authorities. The construction of an efficient and effective, yet fully fair tax system in the EU is intended to eliminate or significantly reduce the problem of tax avoidance. This is achieved by the measures currently underway (e.g. the introduction of a directive against tax avoidance or the elaboration by the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD) regarding the recommendations for local administrations in the field of national tax regulations). This article aims to highlight the importance of the tax avoidance problem and to present selected actions to solve it at both the national and EU levels. The structure of the study has been subordinated to the above, as along with the applied research method, including the analytical and conceptual approach.</p>

Abstract:

Purpose A taxpayer who gets caught under Part VII of the Mauritius Income Tax Act is subjected to a corrective measure only in the form of payment of the amount of tax that would have been due in the absence of the avoidance arrangement, but the consequences set out in the same section do not result in any disincentive to the taxpayer that would ensure the prevention of the occurrence of such type of anti-avoidance practices in the future. This study aims to investigate the effectiveness of the anti-avoidance provisions in the Mauritius legislation as a weapon against impermissible tax avoidance, and the study also intends to critically analyse the remedies available against taxpayers who enter into impermissible tax avoidance transactions. Design/methodology/approach The methodology adopted for this qualitative study consists of a critical analysis and comparative legal review of the relevant legislation, case laws and literature. The anti-avoidance provisions of the Mauritius legislation will be compared with similar provisions of legislations of countries that have rigid preventive rules for anti-avoidance practices, and the selected countries are the UK and Australia because each country has been successful in diminishing the tax avoidances practices further to the imposition of penalties for impermissible tax avoidance. The black letter approach will also be used through which existing legal provisions, judicial doctrines, scholar articles and budget speeches governing anti-avoidance provisions for each country identified will be analysed. Findings Further to an analysis of the substantial differences between Mauritius anti-avoidance legal provisions and those of the UK and Australia, it is found that the backing of corrective actions by penalties act as a disincentive to prohibit impermissible anti-avoidance practices. The study concludes that, where there is abuse of law, the law needs to provide for penalties that must be suffered by the abuser, and hence, the study calls for an amendment in the Mauritius Income Tax Act to strengthen anti-avoidance provisions, by adopting similar provisions of the laws of Australia and the UK. Originality/value At present, there is no Mauritius literature on the researched topic, and this study will be one of the first academic writings on the subject of penalties for impermissible tax avoidance in Mauritius. The study is a new and unique topic in Mauritius, and for that reason, the study will largely rely on foreign sources that deal with penalties for impermissible tax avoidance, and this will include the Australian Taxation Administrative Act 1953, Australian case laws and the UK Finance Act 2016. This study is being carried out with the view to provide insightful recommendations to the stakeholders concerned in Mauritius to enhance the revenue collection avenues and methodologies for the Mauritius revenue authorities.

Abstract:

In the article the author explored the legal regulation of counteraction to VAT evasion (avoidance by taxpayers of their tax liability by minimizing tax liabilities), which is a specific type of activity of tax authorities. The continuous development of public relations in the field of taxation in Ukraine requires effective application of administrative prevention (counteraction) measures in this area and, of course, the qualitative state of legal regulation of these measures. In the legal literature, administrative prevention measures were mainly studied in terms of conceptual and categorical apparatus and their classification. To date, considering the introduction of electronic administration of value added tax, studies on the use of administrative prevention measures by public authorities in the scientific field have not been analyzed. Taking into account international experience and based on a systematic analysis of the current legislation, the author deals with the legal mechanism for counteracting evasion from paying value added tax by means of introducing electronic administration of value added tax. The author notes that with the introduction of automated monitoring of risk assessment (taking into consideration the criterion of the amount of paid value added tax) (the so-called “tax burden” and/or “tax return”), the state is trying to increase budget revenues. The author concludes that administrative prevention (counteraction) measures used by regulatory authorities, in a sense, are the tools by which it is possible to achieve timely response to the activities of taxpayers aimed at tax evasion. It was substantiated that automated monitoring of compliance of tax invoices with the risk assessment criteria can be considered as a preventive measure, according to which taxpayers’ transactions aimed at forming an illegal tax credit are detected by regulatory authorities. In turn, making decisions if a payer of value added tax meets the Criteria of being a risky payer, and accordingly, further suspension (blocking) of registration of tax invoices of the specified payer, is a measure to counteract evasion from paying value added tax. It was proved that from the legal point of view, the legal mechanism of administrative prevention (counteraction) measures, in particular, those regarding the implementation (conducting) of automated monitoring, should contribute to the avoidance of legal collisions and contradictions that arise between regulatory authorities and taxpayers.

Abstract:

The subject of this research is the development of the concept of taxation of permanent representations of foreign companies on the international level and its application in the Russian Federation. The object of this research is the permanent representations of foreign companies. The author examines such aspects of the topic, as the use of agreements on avoidance of double taxation, countering the tax base erosion, and the international approach towards taxation of the permanent representation of a foreign company as an independent participant of the market relations. Analysis is conducted on the need for amending the Model Agreement of the Russian Federation of 02.24.2010 No. 84 “On conclusion of intergovernmental agreements on avoidance of double taxation and on prevention of tax evasion on the income and property”. The author traces the transformation of attitude of international tax organizations towards the concept of permanent representation and substantiation of their choice of the concept of taxation of a permanent representation as an independent taxpayer. The scientific novelty is proven by the facts of application of this concept of taxation of permanent representation in the national legislation of multiple countries, international agreements on avoidance of double taxation, Russian national tax legislation and arbitration practice. The main conclusion consists in the response to the selected by the international tax organizations concept of taxation of a permanent representation. The author offers to amend the Model Agreement of the Russian Federation of 02.24.2010 No. 84 “On conclusion of intergovernmental agreements on avoidance of double taxation and on prevention of tax evasion on the income and property”.

Abstract:

Purpose The purpose of this paper is to analyze the effect of internal control on tax avoidance analyzing internal (family ownership) and external (environmental uncertainty) factors on the effectiveness of internal control in preventing tax avoidance. Design/methodology/approach First, the authors examine the direct effect of the effectiveness of internal control on tax avoidance. Second, the authors examine the effect of moderation of family ownership and environmental uncertainty on the relationship of the effectiveness of internal control on tax avoidance. Third, the authors divide the full sample into two groups, high and less effectiveness of internal control to examine the direct effect of internal control effectiveness on tax avoidance and when considering moderating variables. Fourth, the authors use two different measures of the effectiveness of internal control. Findings This research found that effective internal control can reduce tax avoidance. Family ownership affects the relationship between internal control and tax avoidance, but environmental uncertainty does not influence the relationship between internal control and tax avoidance. Practical implications Internal control increases compliance with rules and policies, so companies must design and implement effective internal control to prevent tax avoidance activities in violation of tax regulations. Originality/value In contrast to previous studies, this study measures the effectiveness of internal control using the index of internal control practice disclosure and considers internal and external factors that can affect the effectiveness of internal control to prevent tax avoidance.

Abstract:

This paper deals with prevention and alternative dispute resolution (ADR) in tax matters, particularly in the light of the specific nature of administrative relations, which also include tax procedures. Given the involvement of stakeholders, ADR benefits both the taxpayers and the tax authority, enabling greater legal certainty and speedier finalisation of procedures. Yet, ADR also poses an open threat to the public interest and equality as international and constitutional administrative principles, and must therefore be limited in tax procedures. This also derives from the legal acts of the EU and the Council of Europe. In addition to theoretical frameworks and types of dispute prevention and resolution mechanisms studied by means of scientific literature review, legal sources analysis and comparative insights, the paper presents the Slovenian regulation and practice of the Financial Administration (FURS) over the past years. The aim of this research is to examine the de iure and de facto situation at the national level. The analysis shows that, in tax matters, ADR is noticeably more intensive at the international level than within national tax systems. On the other hand, individual countries prefer to establish regulatory mechanisms for prevention, which should result in even more desired avoidance of disputes. It can be concluded that efficient tax procedures require an integrated approach, including both dispute prevention and ADR, in order to ensure the principles of tax justice and systemic inclusion of all stakeholders in its governance.

Abstract:

Cette thèse contribue à la littérature en économie financière et en économie publique, plus spécifiquement la recherche sur les paradis fiscaux, l'évasion fiscale et la planification fiscale. Le premier chapitre est une revue de la littérature sur les principales études portant sur les paradis fiscaux, leurs définitions, rôles et conséquences. Le deuxième chapitre analyse les caractéristiques des paradis fiscaux. Une nouvelle liste est utilisée et contient les pays qui figurent dans les récentes fuites des Panama et Paradise Papers. En utilisant le modèle logit, les caractéristiques des paradis fiscaux sont explorées. Les résultats montrent que la bonne gouvernance est un facteur important qui caractérise les paradis fiscaux. Ces territoires semblent avoir une voix internationale (poids du pays) très basse ou très élevée. En comparant avec d'autres listes de paradis fiscaux, on peut montrer que la plupart des listes existantes sont biaisées. Le troisième chapitre identifie le transfert de bénéfices des plus grandes banques européennes. A partir de 2014, les institutions financières ont commencé à divulguer leurs activités pays par pays, conformément à la directive européenne CRD TV. En utilisant un échantillon de 2013 à 2019, je trouve que les bénéfices des banques sont sensibles au taux d'imposition, ce qui suggère que les banques réduisent leur fardeau fiscal via leurs filiales. Le transfert de bénéfices est estimé en utilisant deux approches : les différences entre les taux d'imposition des pays et les différences entre la rentabilité par employé. Selon la méthode utilisée, les banques européennes arrivent à transférer environ 7 â 14% de leurs bénéfices à l'étranger en 2017. Enfin, le dernier chapitre étudie la relation entre la Responsabilité Sociétale de !'Entreprise (RSE) et son agressivité fiscale. On utilise un échantillon d'entreprises allant de 2008 à 2018 dans un cadre mondial. Les résultats suggèrent que plus une entreprise est socialement responsable, plus elle évite les impôts. Cela est également vrai pour les entreprises ayant un niveau élevé de satisfaction des employés. Les entreprises socialement responsables font également du lobbying sur les questions fiscales. Globalement, le paiement de la juste part des impôts semble être dissocié de la notion de l'entreprise responsable
This thesis contributes to the literature in Financial Economies and Public Economies that considers research about tax havens, tax avoidance and tax planning. The first chapter is a literature review about the main studies that evolve around tax havens. The second chapter analyses the characteristics of tax havens. A new list is used and it consists of the countries that figure in the recent leaks of the Panama Papers and Paradise Papers. Using logit regressions, I find that Good governance is an important factor that characterize tax havens. These countries seem to either have very low international voice or very high one. We compare with other lists of tax havens and show that most existent lists are biased. The third chapter identifies profit shifting by the top European banks. Financial institutions as of 2014 started disclosing their activity on a country-by-country level, following the CRD IV EU directive. Using a sample from 2013 to 2019, I find that the banks' profits are sensitive to the tax rate suggesting that banks lower their tax burden through their subsidiaries. Profit shifting is estirnated by using two approaches: tax differentials and profitability differentials. Depending on the method used, profit shifting by the top European banks is between 7 to 15 percent of the total profits booked abroad in 2017. Finally, the last chapter studies the relationship between CSR and tax aggressiveness. We use a sample of firms from 2008 to 2018 in a worldwide framework. The findings suggest that the more a firm is socially responsible, the more it avoids taxes. That is also true for firms with hjgh level of employee satisfaction. Socially responsible firms engage as well in lobbying on tax issues. Overall, paying the fair share of taxes seems to be disassociated from the notion of the good corporate citizen

Abstract:

Tax avoidance has been the subject of intense scrutiny lately by both the South African Revenue Service ("the SARS") and the media. This attention stems largely from the recent withdrawal of section 103(1) together with the introduction of section 80A to 80L of the South African Income Tax Act. However, this attention is not limited to South Africa. Revenue authorities worldwide have focused on the task of challenging tax avoidance. The approach of the SARS to tackling tax avoidance has been multi-faceted. In the Discussion Paper on Tax Avoidance and Section 103 (1) of the South African Income Tax Act they begin with a review of the distinction between tax evasion, tax avoidance and tax planning. Following a call for comment the SARS issued an Interim Response followed by the Revised Proposals which culminated in the withdrawal of the longstanding general anti-avoidance rules housed in section 103(1) and the introduction of new and more comprehensive anti-avoidance rules. In addition, the SARS has adopted an ongoing media campaign stressing the importance of paying tax in a country with a large development agenda like that of South Africa, the need for taxpayers to adopt a responsible attitude to the management of tax and the inclusion of responsible tax management as the greatest measure of a taxpayer's corporate and social investment. In tandem with this message the SARS have sought to vilify those taxpayers who engage in tax avoidance. The message is clear: tax avoidance carries reputational risks; those who engage in tax avoidance are unpatriotic or immoral and their actions simply result in an unfair shifting of the tax burden. The SARS is not alone in the above approach. Around the world tax authorities have been echoing the same message. The message appears to be working. Accounting firms speak of a "creeping conservatism" that has pervaded company boardrooms. What is not clear, however, is whether taxpayers, in becoming more conservative, are simply more fully aware of tax risks and are making informed decisions or whether they are simply responding to external events, such as the worldwide focus by revenue authorities and the media on tax avoidance. Whatever the reason, it is now critical, particularly in the case of corporate taxpayers, that their policies for tax and its attendant risks need to be as sophisticated, coherent and transparent as its policies in all other areas involving multiple stakeholders, such as suppliers, customers, staff and investors. How does a company begin to set its tax philosophy and strategic direction or to determine its appetite for risk? A starting point, it is submitted would be a review of the distinction between tax evasion, avoidance and planning with a heightened sensitivity to the unfamiliar ethical, moral and social risks. The goal of this thesis was to clearly define the distinction between tax evasion, tax avoidance and tax planning from a legal interpretive, ethical and historical perspective in order to develop a rudimentary framework for the responsible management of strategic tax decisions, in the light of the new South African general anti-avoidance legislation. The research methodology entails a qualitative research orientation consisting of a critical conceptual analysis of tax evasion and tax avoidance, with a view to establishing a basic framework to be used by taxpayers to make informed decisions on tax matters. The analysis of the distinction in this work culminated in a diagrammatic representation of the distinction between tax evasion, tax avoidance and tax planning emphasising the different types of tax avoidance from least aggressive to the most abusive and from the least objectionable to most objectionable. It is anticipated that a visual representation of the distinction, however flawed, would result in a far more pragmatic tool to taxpayers than a lengthy document. From a glance taxpayers can determine the following: That tax avoidance is legal; that different forms of tax avoidance exist, some forms being more aggressive than others; that aggressive forms of tax avoidance carry reputational risks; and that in certain circumstances aggressive tax avoidance schemes may border on tax evasion. This, it is envisaged, may prompt taxpayers to ask the right questions when faced with an external or in-house tax avoidance arrangement rather than simply blindly accepting or rejecting the arrangement.

Abstract:

Background: Tax avoidance is a prevalent issue that perplexes many governments, policy makers and revenue collection authorities across the globe. Tax avoidance is the legal exploitation of loopholes in tax laws and the abuse of tax benefits intended for other purposes. Excessive and impermissible tax avoidance constrains a government’s capacity to deliver public goods, services and programmes to the broader public. Various measures have been implemented over time to curb this unwanted behaviour. Examples of these measures include tax reforms and the introduction of general and specific anti-avoidance rules and penalties. This study focusses on the effectiveness of the use of penalties as a measure to combat tax avoidance, firstly at a global level and then centred on South Africa. Main purpose of study: This study aims to provide a systematic review on the opinion of academic literature globally regarding the effectiveness of tax penalties in combatting tax avoidance and to make recommendations on the implementation of penalties in South Africa. Method: Relevant literature was identified from high quality sources and analysed according to predetermined criteria. A brief overview of the literature was performed and findings were presented and discussed. Conclusions regarding the effectiveness of tax penalties were drawn and, where applicable, recommendations were made for the implementation of penalties in South Africa. Results: The opinion in academic literature regarding the effective use of penalties to combat tax avoidance is varied. Penalties by themselves are rarely regarded as an effective measure to reduce tax avoidance. In this regard, various factors exist that influence the ability of a penalty to affect real change in taxpayer behaviour and reduce unwanted tax avoidance. Conclusions: South Africa has implemented tax penalties, in accordance with global norms, to combat unwanted tax avoidance. By focussing on other factors that, in combination with tax penalties, make these tax penalties more effective, greater change in taxpayer behaviour can be achieved. The existing penalties would therefore not need to be changed to be more effective but additional measures should also be taken to change taxpayer behaviour.

Abstract:

This study analyzes the relation between accounting conservatism, future tax rate cuts and countries' level of book-tax conformity. Firms have an incentive to increase conservatism in financial reporting when a tax rate cut is imminent to shift taxable income into the lower taxed future. Using a panel of firms across 18 countries from 1995 to 2010 I find that conditional conservatism is positively and significantly associated with future tax rate cuts when book-tax conformity is high. This effect is particularly pronounced for firms that concentrate the majority of their operations in the country in which the tax rate is cut. In contrast, there is no significant relation between future tax rate cuts and unconditional conservatism.

Abstract:

I examine the association between CEOs' after-tax incentives and their firms' levels of tax avoidance. Economic theory holds that firms should compensate CEOs on an after-tax basis when the expected tax savings generated from incentive alignment outweigh the incremental compensation demanded by CEOs for bearing additional tax-related compensation risk. Using publicly available data, I estimate CEOs' after-tax incentives and find a negative relation between the use of after-tax incentives and effective tax rates. While the results suggest that greater use of after-tax measures in CEO compensation leads to higher tax savings, it is possible that these savings will lead to lower pre-tax returns, or implicit taxes. Therefore, I also examine the association between the use of after-tax incentives and implicit taxes and find a positive association between the two. Finally, I find a significant positive relation between after-tax incentives and total CEO compensation, suggesting that CEOs who are compensated after-tax demand a premium for the additional risk they bear.

Abstract:

This paper investigates whether managers that have a propensity for personal tax aggressiveness are associated with tax avoidance at the firm level. Motivated by Dhaliwal, Erickson, and Heitzman (2009) and Hanlon and Heitzman (2009), I construct a measure of personally tax aggressive ("aggressive") managers and determine whether corporate tax avoidance activities increase in their presence. The results of my study indicate that aggressive managers are associated with firm-level tax avoidance. The neoclassical view would suggest that aggressive managers' tax expertise could benefit shareholders through lower tax payments. Since aggressive managers extract their personal tax savings from shareholders, non-tax agency costs potentially increase in their presence. This has implications for the association between aggressive managers and firm value. Using the framework established through the agency view of tax avoidance (Desai and Dharmapala, 2008) I find that on average the presence of aggressive managers is associated with increased firm value. However, consistent with recent research, governance is an important moderating factor whereby firm value in the presence of aggressive managers tends to increase only for relatively better-governed firms.

O objectivo deste trabalho é o de identificar na literatura económica quais são as principais causas para a fraude e evasão fiscal, assim como analisar de que forma essas causas para a fraude e evasão fiscal se manifestam em Portugal. A Metodologia utilizada assentou na identificação das principais causas para a fraude e evasão fiscal decorrente da análise da literatura mais relevante. De forma a analisar a situação de Portugal face a essas causas procurou-se analisar as boas práticas das EU e da OCDE e qual o seu grau de implementação em Portugal. Por outro lado foram analisadas na realidade nacional as condicionantes de cada causa. Com este estudo, conclui-se que existem quatro principais causas de evasão e fraude fiscal (aversão ao risco, probabilidade de detecção, multas aplicadas e o possível retorno de uma situação de evasão). Em Portugal, as que se apresentam como tendo maior probabilidade de explicar a situação que vivenciada referem-se às multas aplicadas e à probabilidade de detecção de situações fraudulentas. Visando, este trabalho, um tema que é de grande sensibilidade, as conclusões encontram-se limitadas, principalmente pela escassez de informações sobre a situação em Portugal. Pretende-se que este estudo sirva de base a futuras investigações nesta área.
The objective of this work is to identify, in literature, the major causes of tax evasion and avoidance as well as examine in which way these causes for tax evasion and avoidance are manifested in Portugal. The Methodology used sought to identify the main causes for tax evasion and avoidance arises from analysis of relevant literature. In order to analyze the situation in Portugal, with regard to these causes, we tried to ascertain the best practices of EU and OECD and their degree of implementation in Portugal. Moreover were analyzed the constraints of each cause, in the national reality. With this study it was found four major causes for tax evasion and avoidance (risk aversion, probability of detection, penalty rates and possible return of a successful situation of evasion). In Portugal those who stand as being more likely to explain the situation experienced are penalty rates and the probability of detection of fraudulent situations. Being the discussion of this theme of high sensitivity, the main limitation found are related with the short data about the situation in Portugal. It is intended that this work will serve as a basis for future research in this area.

Partnerships, the most common form of "flow-through" tax entities, have rapidly increased in size, complexity and economic relevance between 2005 to 2015, as well as resulting in an estimated $91 billion in underreported income. Many of these partnerships have upwards of one million direct and indirect partners, as well as 100 tiers of additional large partnerships. This surge in the number of partnerships, combined with the highly complicated nature of US partnership taxation law, requires novel techniques to evaluate the tax consequences of increasingly complex financial activity. A computational methodology is presented in this thesis for understanding and analyzing the allocation of taxable income in large partnership structures, with particular focus on characterizing abusive tax behavior. First, a formal notation is established to fully describe how taxable income is allocated in partnerships, forming the basis of a functioning partnership tax calculator. Next, a simulation is described that processes transaction sequences through partnership structures, as well as a method for assigning audit likelihood to potentially suspicious combinations of financial activity. Finally, a means by which to optimize a) transaction sequences that minimize both tax liability and audit likelihood and b) auditing procedures that characterize abusive tax behavior in a compact form is established. The proposed methodology offers taxpayers, auditors and policy-makers a computational approach to resolve uncertainty in partnership taxation, lower the cost of the auditing process through automation and provide a conceptual exploration of tax policy implications.

Abstract:

This thesis consists of three self-contained studies on corporate tax avoidance of Chinese firms around the 2008 Corporate Tax Reform. In Chapter 1, we describe the background of this thesis, provide a general introduction of the Tax Reform and outline the motivation of this research. Chapter 2 studies how multinationals’ decisions of foreign direct investment (FDI) into China responded to the tax reform where exemption from the dividend withholding tax was repealed and investors from various jurisdictions faced different withholding tax rates due to their existing double tax agreements (DTA) with China, providing incentives to adopt an indirect strategy for foreign affiliates and thus to reduce host country taxation of foreign income. We find a significant rise in FDI flows sourced from low tax conduit jurisdictions with favorable DTA subsequent to the tax reform, while there is no similar increase in FDI flows sourced from other jurisdictions. In addition, our results suggest that the pattern of FDI changes is similar for jurisdictions adopting divergent double tax relief mechanisms. Overall, our findings are supportive of the existence of indirect investment structures in which investors use conduit strategies via chains of ownership in order to minimize their corporate tax burden. Chapter 3 investigates whether and how firms shift income across consecutive years in response to a known schedule of tax rate changes. Both accruals-based and real earnings management models are tested for firms with tax rate increase or decrease. We find that firms expecting tax rate increase are more likely to manage their earnings upward via accruals instead of real activities, while firms facing tax rate reduction do not exhibit significant downward earnings management behavior via accruals or real activities. Our tests also show that state or institutional ownership do not have significant impact on the extent of accruals-based or real earnings management in response to tax rate changes. Chapter 4 studies the changes in effective tax rates (ETR) and book-tax differences (BTDs) of firms in response to a rise or cut in statutory tax rate during a major tax reform in an emerging market, and offers insights into the interaction of financial accounting considerations with corporate tax avoidance. We find that firms located in special economic zones (SEZ) with a rising statutory tax rate after tax reform exhibit a rise in ETRs and permanent BTDs, but the temporary BTDs of SEZ firms dropped after CTR-08, suggesting a trade-off of time value benefits of deferring tax payment for the advantage of accelerating tax payment during a period of rising tax rate. DR firms, on the other hand, show a decrease in ETRs and permanent BTDs when they face a decrease in statutory tax rate. In Chapter 5, the main findings and implications of the thesis are summarized and future research directions are discussed.
