Tóm tắt

Bài báo này khám phá cách thức sở thích của chính phủ ảnh hưởng đến quyết định thuế vốn của một quốc gia. Chúng tôi phát triển một mô hình trong đó các chính phủ, khác biệt trong sở thích về phát triển kinh tế và bình đẳng thu nhập, cạnh tranh để thu hút vốn di động thông qua thuế doanh nghiệp. Dự đoán chính của mô hình, được chứng minh qua dữ liệu từ các quốc gia OECD trong giai đoạn 1990–2012, cho thấy rằng sự gia tăng sở thích của chính phủ trong việc theo đuổi phát triển kinh tế so với bình đẳng thu nhập khiến các phản ứng thuế ngang hàng của các quốc gia trở nên mạnh mẽ hơn. Khác với các nghiên cứu hiện có, kết quả của chúng tôi góp phần vào tài liệu về cạnh tranh thuế bằng cách nhấn mạnh tầm quan trọng của sở thích chính phủ trong việc xác định mức độ cạnh tranh thuế giữa các quốc gia, từ đó cung cấp một lời giải thích mới cho sự khác biệt thuế mà chúng ta thường thấy ở các quốc gia.
