Dividend Taxes, Corporate Investment, and 'Q'

Article Abstract:

Econometric tests are developed to determine the influence of taxation on corporate investment decisions. Consideration is given to changes in corporate tax rate and depreciation rules. Firms continue to pay dividends in spite of heavy tax liabilities because the stock market capitalizes the tax payments in corporate distributions. Dividend taxes discourage corporate investment.
