The uniform enterprise income tax reform in China

In China, the income tax of enterprise is very different between foreign funded enterprises and other domestic enterprises. It is believed that this discrimination is harmful to the entire economy. So there is a reform in the tax system to build a uniform enterprise income tax. This is a significant reform in China＇s tax system, so every decision about this have to count the cost and the benefit carefully. The author has introduced the Computable General Equilibrium （CGE） to simulate this new tax system and value its benefit and cost. There are two different models in the paper; they are of different assumptions and for different purposes. Model I is a static CGE model and model II is a Ramsey Dynamic model. The static model is mainly used for comparative static approach to examine how the tax reform will change the endogenous variables. According to the results of the model, more goods will be produced by both of the DFEs and FIEs after the tax reform in the medium and low tax effective tax rate situations. If the nominal tax rates decrease 24.24% （from 33% to 25%）, the enterprise income tax will only reduce 19.36% and the total tax revenue will only reduce 1.911%. The dynamic model will concentrate on the costs and benefits during the transition. From the results of the model, a lower tax rate will increase the level of investment, capital stock, capital prices, wage rate and also the growth rates through transition. If the capital tax rates are changed gradually, the fluctuating of transition will be smoothed a little.

Income tax in Russia:history and the present

Next year marks 100 years since the introduction of the first law on income tax in Russia.Over this period a number of reforms on income tax has been conducted,and various results have been achieved.It has become of importance to analyze the experience of income tax reforms.This paper aims to study the formation and reformation of income tax in Russia.This work singles out and analyzes five stages of formation of income tax in Russia-the main focus being on the analysis of the two last stages of income tax functioning:during the transition to a market economy and in a market economy.The paper identifies the main prerequisites of the personal income tax reform in 2001 and analyzes the results of the reform.The paper validates the conclusion that the reform had mixed results.The transition to the proportional model of personal income tax failed to significantly affect the fiscal significance of this tax,and did not lead to the desired legalization of salaries or a drastic decrease in the share of wages paid off the books.Moreover,the income tax reform did not result in a significant decrease in the number of tax concessions that reduce the neutrality and fiscal significance of the tax.At the same time,the income tax reform made it possible to drastically increase the neutrality and economic effectiveness of this tax,reduced the cost of administration for taxpayers,withholding agents,and tax services.In light of a possible new reform of the tax system,this article makes the assumption that the return to progressive tax rates will fall short of expectations of the poor,as the wealth gap in Russian society will not be reduced.This paper draws the conclusion that as the achievement of the expected results is not guaranteed,preserving the existing model of personal income tax may be the most pragmatic option.At the same time,it might be advisable to take an inventory of tax deductions,and possibly cancel some of them that are exclusively enjoyed by the rich in the first place.

Fiscal pressure and local economic growth--An experiment from China income tax sharing system reform

In this paper,we construct an“as-if”DID model on the basis of the 2002“Income Tax Sharing System”reform and evaluate the changes in local fiscal pressure based on an exogenous shock that redefines the tax sharing rules between the central government and local governments.By using the DMSP/OLS satellite data at the city-level,we empirically examine the impact of fiscal pressure on the economic growth.We find that fiscal pressure significantly increase the satellite lighting.Furthermore,we obtain the findings as follows.Firstly,the incentive effects of fiscal pressure effects are less profound in cities that receive considerable intergovernmental transfers from high levels of governments.Secondly,the local governments are more likely to help the growth of real estate industry,which can reciprocally bring them considerable sales taxation.However,this homogenized growth pattern might be detrimental for economic diversification and finally enhance the risk of economical fluctuation.Finally,the fiscal pressure created by the reform restricts the extent to which jurisdictions compete with each other.However,the tax competition still exists because local governments are able to lower the tax rate once they gain enough revenues from land-sales.This paper provides a new explanation for China’s high-speed growth in addition to expenditure decentralization or administration decentralization.It also offers extra evidence for exploring the growth incentives of local government within the framework of China’s decentralization.
