Irreversible investment and endogenous financing: an evaluation of the corporate tax effects

Article Abstract:

The effects of corporate taxes on the investment and financing decisions of a firm were investigated using an econometric model that features an asymmetric tax system. The model assumes that the firm's financing choices are endogenous in nature and that the amount of debt in each firm cannot exceed the value of the firm's capital stock. The impact of imperfect loss carry-overs and different degrees of irreversible investment on incremental investment and entry choices was also analyzed. It was found that the tax distortions on the marginal investment decision are negligible if capital can be financed with debt at the margin. In contrast, the tax distortions on the entry choice are significant.
