Abstract
We analyze the incidence of a linear corporate tax using a simple and portable competitive general equilibrium model in which capital owners choose to invest either in domestic production or a foreign investment opportunity and workers make extensive margin labor supply decisions. Our analysis explores the effect of corporate taxation on wages, employment, domestic profits, and domestic investment. Analytical results and numerical simulations generate insights in line with recent empirical evidence on corporate tax incidence: the burden of the corporate tax is shared between workers and firms, with larger responses among more capital-intensive firms.
