چکیده

This paper analyses the impact of effective average and marginal tax rates on the size of the capital stock owned by foreign affiliates of US multinational companies. We use data on 20 OECD countries, 1983-1998. A simple two-stage model of location choice, and investment conditional on location, identifies the role of each form of effective tax rate. The results indicate a large and significant role for the effective average tax rate, but not for the effective marginal tax rate. This is consistent with the discrete location choice playing a more important role in determining the size of the foreign-owned capital stock.
