  • In industrialised countries, innovation is a key source of economic growth. Research is a key driver of technological innovation and involves the process of systematic investigation and/or experimentation to discover new knowledge. The Governments' industry innovation policy supports a business focus on Research and Development (R&D) through a range of programs in order to achieve these aims. The Innovation Statement (DISR 2000, 20010, launched by the Australian Prime Minister in January 2001, commits an additional $\$3$ billion over five years to encourage and support innovation. The Australian Government aims to build world competitive firms and strong research capability in industry to strengthen Australia's international competitiveness and increase national prosperity. It develops policies and programs to enhance investment in innovation. The Australian Government has establisher a number of R&D funding support programs aimed at increasing the level of R&D in Australia. The backbone of these programs is the tax concession program, which is made up of the 125 per cent R&D tax concession, the 175 per cent premium tax concession and the tax offset. Over 4000 businesses take advantage of the tax concession scheme, which costs the government around $\$400$ million a year. This cost is expected to rise to over half a billion by 2005-06 (Commonwealth of Australia, 2003). Ensuring these resources are invested where they provide significant national economic benefits is a major policy issue. In this sense, this paper looks at the appropriateness, effectiveness and efficiency of the R&D tax concession with costs and benefits analysis.

  • 빅테크 기업으로 불리는 글로벌 플랫폼들은 전 세계적인 규모로 성장하면서 데이터의 축적과 가격경쟁력, 네트워크 효과를 확보했다. 이로 인한 경쟁우위를 배경으로 글로벌 플랫폼이 그 위상을 더욱 강화되고 있다. 유럽연합(EU) 집행위 경쟁분과위원회는 반독점 위반을 이유로 구글에 대해 막대한 과징금을 부과하기도 하였는데 이는 구글의 미납 세금을 거둬들이기 위한 것이라 해석되기도 하였다. 실제로 글로벌 플랫폼의 편법적인 조세회피를 겨냥하여 '구글세' 형태의 과세 노력이 진행 중이다. 한편, 국내 콘텐츠 스타트업 및 중소벤처기업 등에도 큰 영향을 미치고 있는 글로벌 플랫폼의 국내 매출과 세금 규모는 정확히 측정되지 않고 있다. 구글의 경우 연구문헌에 따르면 2017년 한국 매출을 약 2조~3조원으로 추정하였으나, 구글코리아는 2021년 매출이 2,900억 원이라 신고하고 130억 원의 세금을 납부하였다. 본 연구는 국내에 큰 영향을 미치고 있는 글로벌 플랫폼의 경제적 효과를 검증하고 구체적으로 대표적인 글로벌 플랫폼인 구글의 연간 국내 매출액과 세금을 정량적으로 추정하고자 하였다. 구글에서 발간한 구글 경제 효과 관련 문건에서 제시된 수치를 기초로 구글의 연간 국내 매출과 세금을 추정한 결과, 연간 매출 4~9조 원, 세금 3,906억 원~9,131억 원의 결과를 얻었다. 본 연구는 이런 글로벌 플랫폼 기업의 국가별 과세 권한 문제를 구글이라는 구체적 사례를 가지고 추정함으로써 앞으로 전개될 디지털 경제 시대의 국가, 조세 정책 방향에 대한 기초 자료를 제공했다는 점에서 의의가 있다 할 수 있다.

  • This study examines the impact of corporate tax, a fiscal measure along with trade liberalization and research and development on total factor productivity for a panel of 153 industrial firms listed on the Pakistan Stock Exchange over the period 1997-2017. For empirical analysis, we employ the system generalized method of moment estimator. In the first step, we estimate industrial production function and the results reveal that raw material, industrial labour force and energy play vital role in enhancing industrial production. Whereas, industrial capital exerts negative impact on industrial output. We also measured total factor productivity using the production elasticities. In the second step, we examine the impact of corporate tax, trade liberalization and research and development on total factor productivity. The results indicate that higher level of corporate tax exerts negative impact on total factor productivity. The findings reveal that higher corporate taxation discourages industrial firms to undertake research and development thereby exerting adverse impact on total factor productivity of firms. The impact of trade liberalization proxied by average tariff is positive while customs duty and sales tax negatively impact firm-level total factor productivity. These findings provide useful insights for managers, investors and policy makers in Pakistan.

  • The study investigates the impact of the environmental protection tax, along with other factors such as attitude, subjective norm, environmental concern, and the availability of substitutes on the use of plastic bags in Vietnam. To achieve this objective, a questionnaire was prepared for data collection. The questionnaire employed a 5-point Likert scale with "completely disagree" at 1 and "completely agree" at 5. A total of 327 questionnaires were returned. However, only 291 valid responders were used in the analysis. The Cronbach's Alpha and the exploratory factor analysis were applied to test the scale reliability and discover the structure of the scales. Afterwards, we conducted the confirmatory factor analysis and the structural equation modeling to analyze collected data. The study shows that attitude is an important factor influencing the plastic bag use of consumers. Other factors that also lead to a decline in plastic bags are subjective norm and environmental concern. Meanwhile, the availability of substitutes does not affect consumers' green behavior. Moreover, the major findings of the research suggest the relationship between the environmental protection tax and the use of plastic bags is not statistically significant. In other words, tax policy may fail to change the habit of using plastic bags in Vietnam.

  • The aim of the present study is to analyze the financial performance of converted commercial bank from non-banking financial institution through a case study of Bangladesh Commerce Bank Limited as sample organization. It is observed that the bank is able to achieve a stable growth rate in total deposits, total loans and advances, and net income after tax during the period of 2015-2019. Researchers also calculated some ratio analysis and noticed that the financial position of Bangladesh Commerce Bank Limited was not so strong because bank's ROA, ROE, NIM and other ratios were below standard. Researchers used secondary data that were examined by using descriptive statistical tools and panel data regression model. Result shows that Bangladesh Commerce Bank has satisfactory operating efficiency, assets management efficiency, and gives loans to customers. In addition, the present study has tested some hypotheses regarding net income after tax, ROA and ROE with total assets, total loans, total deposits and interest income. These hypotheses have been accepted, which means there is no significant influence of the independent variable on the dependent variable. The study suggests that Bangladesh Commerce Bank Limited had the opportunities to make their financial position stronger by utilizing their good financial position and management efficiencies.

  • This study aims to find empirical evidence of the effect of increasing income on the potential transfer of wealth from manufacturing companies that go public to stakeholders. Earnings management with an accrual approach with the Modified Jones model is an identifier of the availability of earnings management practices, without paying attention to both positive and negative symbols. The interpretation of the results of the discretionary accrual measurement between positive and negative symbols has different meanings. Positive discretionary accruals indicate that management uses income-increasing techniques. Meanwhile, negative discretionary accruals indicate that management uses income-reducing techniques. Income-increasing techniques tend to be viewed as opportunistic behavior of managers. This study used 111 data from manufacturing companies listed on the IDX (Indonesia Stock Exchange) from 2015-2018. Path analysis is used to test the hypothesis. The results of this study are in line with the point of view of management strategy, increasing income is used as a way to transfer potential welfare from the company to stakeholders. Social welfare (tax) and managerial remuneration are proven to be mediators in increasing the effect of increasing income on future company value. Further research can complete the potential welfare transfer against the shareholders related to income-increasing strategy.

  • 기업이 해외특수관계자와의 거래시 정상가격보다 높게 또는 낮게 거래하여 과세소득을 해외에 이전시키는 경우 당해 과세당국은 기업의 조세회피를 불문하고 그 조작된 가격을 부인하고 정상가격으로 과세함으로서 자국의 과세권을 보호하고 국제적인 조세회피를 예방하기 위한 이전가격과세제도를 두고 있다. 지금까지의 연구는 주로 유형재화를 중심으로 이루어져 왔으며 무형재화에 대한 연구는 상대적으로 거의 없는 상태이다. 무형재화도 기업이 보유하고 있는 자산중에서 중요한 부분이기 때문에 OECD와 미국에서는 무형재화의 범위에서부터 무형재화의 이전가격결정방법에 이르기까지 수미일관되게 법으로 규정하고 있어나 우리나라는 무형재화의 이전에 따른 규정이 없는 실정이다. 따라서 과세권을 확보하고 국제화에 대비하기 위하여 무형재화의 이전가격세제에 대한 체계적인 규정이 제정되어야 할 것이다.

  • The purpose of this paper was to draw implications for community economic development policies of Korean local governments by investigating the community economic development policies of the USA local governments. Those policies can be segmented to first wave(1950s-1970s), second wave(1980s), and third wave(1990s) of development policy. First two policies entailed some expense to community residents by providing low tax rates, tax abatement, tax reliefs, industrial revenue bonds, and direct state loans for potential companies. These policies brought ‘clawback’ and ‘drawbacks’ to the local residents. The third wave of community economic development policy includes capital market programs(predominantly government-financed loan programs and government support for predominantly privately financed loan or equity programs), providing information and education for small business in the communities, supporting small business by providing high technology and research, and export assistance-providing information/training opportunity how to export, sending trade missions, and export financing. Local government authorities in Korea should learn the community economic development policies administrated by the USA local governments so that they can avoid the potential try-and-errors in establishing, planning, and administrating their economic development policies.

  • This study examines the strength of the impact of fiscal policy tools on economic wellbeing as measured by per capita income in Malaysia from 1996 to 2020. The impact of fiscal policy instruments on economic wellness, represented by real income per capita, is measured using the autoregressive distributed lags model. The speed of adjustment from short-run disequilibrium to long-run equilibrium is also measured to assess the strength of the fiscal instruments' impact on per capita income. Empirical results exhibit the existence of co-integration relationships between per capita income, tax revenue, and government spending. The findings provide strong support for the presence of a long-run positive impact on government spending and a long-run negative impact of tax revenue on per capita income. The coefficient of ECTt-1 indicates that deviations from a short-run disequilibrium to a long-run equilibrium from the current to the future period are corrected with a speed of 76% (equivalent to a duration of 1.5-2 years to return to equilibrium). The practical and policy implication of the results is fiscal instruments play a significant role, mainly in alleviating the economic impact of the COVID-19 pandemic in the long run.
