Investment incentives and corporate tax asymmetries
a r t i c l e i n f o Recent facts on the importance of corporate losses motivate more careful study of the impact of tax incentives for investment on firms that lose money. I model firm investment decisions in a setting featuring financing constraints and carrybacks and carryforwards of operating losses. I estimate investment responses to tax incentives allowing effects to vary with cash flows...
متن کاملStochastic Recursive Zero-Sum Differential Game and Mixed Zero-Sum Differential Game Problem
Under the notable Issacs’s condition on the Hamiltonian, the existence results of a saddle point are obtained for the stochastic recursive zero-sum differential game and mixed differential game problem, that is, the agents can also decide the optimal stopping time. Themain tools are backward stochastic differential equations BSDEs and double-barrier reflected BSDEs. As the motivation and applic...
متن کاملTemporary Investment Tax Incentives: Theory with Evidence from Bonus Depreciation
There are strong incentives to delay or accelerate investment to take advantage of predictable changes in after-tax prices. For sufficiently long-lived capital goods, these incentives are so strong that the intertemporal elasticity of investment demand is nearly infinite. For temporary tax changes, the equilibrium shadow price of long-lived capital goods should fully reflect the tax subsidy reg...
متن کاملAging theories and the zero-sum game.
For generations programmed mammal aging was widely thought to be theoretically impossible. However, new evolutionary mechanics concepts have led to renewed interest in programmed aging resulting in a schism between programmed and non-programmed proponents. This article argues that this lack of consensus is damaging medical research and therefore steps should be taken to pro-actively resolve the...
متن کاملUnionisation Triggers Tax Incentives to Attract Foreign Direct Investment
This paper analyses tax competition between a unionised and a non-unionised country for the location of an outside firm. We show that unionisation offers an extra incentive for the government to attract a foreign competitor to a concentrated domestic market, in order to affect the behaviour of the domestic union. This results in the unionised country’s government offering a tax discount (or a s...
