Description
Abstract:This study addresses the robustness of the relationship between effective corporate income tax rate (defined six different ways) and capital intensity, foreign involvement, export involvement, natural resource involvement, size, leverage, and level of income. These relationships were examined by multiple regression analysis. All variables except foreign involvement and level of income were hypothesized to have a negative relationship with the effective corporate income tax rate. These hypotheses were belied by the signs of the regression parameters. In terms of significance of the results, foreign involvement, capital intensity, size, and level of income were better than natural resource involvement, leverage, and export involvement.
