Corporate Taxation and Avoidance Corporate Finance and Governance Taxation and Legal Issues

Abstract

In this paper, we study the determinants of the effective tax rate (ETR) for corporate taxation for listed companies in the BRIC countries: Brazil, Russia, India, and China. We use a panel of 3,565 companies over the period 2000-2009, and we apply the generalized method of moments estimator for dynamic panel data. The results show that the ETR for one year depends on the tax burden borne the previous year. The only variable that is significant in all the BRIC countries is inventory intensity. Firm size, leverage, and profitability affect the tax burden in three of the four countries considered but with certain differences.
