Abstract
This paper studies the effect of capital gains taxation on small business transfers and business start-ups. We consider a model in which agents have different abilities to manage businesses and derive an agent's optimal choices as an owner or non-owner of a small business. Agents' optimal choices depend on their abilities. We also find that capital gains taxation has a negative effect on small business transfers but can encourage small business start-ups.
