Summary

Introduction

As the economic warfare between the developing and developed countries grew, taxes are doubly important for countries as income sources. It should be noted that achieving economic development requires the implementation of tax policies by the governments to reach macroeconomic goals, on the one hand, and tax stabilization on the stock markets where capital assets are purchased and sold, on the other hand Stabilization in these markets can enhance the level of tax regulatory practices, and at the same time, be regarded as an important strategic tool among companies (Sadeghi, Ranjpour, Bagherzadeh, and Mousavi, 2015). The strategies of minimizing effective tax rate (ETR), e.g., tax avoidance may be discarded, or tax exemptions and incentives may expire, in the future, thereby raising agency expenses and, weakening the firm's competitive practices in the capital market. A rise in tax avoidance due to managers' opportunistic incentives may lead to reduced tax payments in the short term, though it can enhance the firm's ETR in the long run (Papadopoulou & HristuVarsakelis, 2019)
