Efeitos da responsabilidade tributária de gestores na relação entre autuação e agressividade fiscal

ABSTRACT The aim of this research was to assess the moderating role of the joint and several liability of company directors in the relationship between the cumulative value of tax infraction notices and the subsequent level of corporate tax avoidance. Based on agency theory, the literature suggests that penalizing managers is more effective in reducing tax avoidance than penalizing the firm itself. However, this proposition had not been tested in Brazil, where the legislation determines that infraction notices and the consequent penalization of companies are carried out with the joint and several liability of the directors who have acted in excess of their powers or in violation of the law, the articles of incorporation, or the bylaws. The research is relevant because it presents empirical findings on the determinants of tax avoidance in large companies, as well as demonstrating the importance of the establishment of tax liability in controlling tax avoidance. This research has implications for the public debate on the establishment of tax liability, particularly its role in deterring tax avoidance. As a practical implication, it is suggested that the tax authority prioritizes tax audits that provide evidence that could lead to the tax liability of directors. The research consisted of a multiple linear regression analysis using the ordinary least squares (OLS) method on 23,142 observations from 4,560 large companies, covering the period from 2014 to 2020, collected directly from the internal systems of the Brazilian Federal Revenue Office (RFB). The results suggest that the joint and several liability of directors attenuates (intensifies) the positive relationship between the cumulative value of tax infraction notices and tax avoidance, as measured by the book tax difference (BTD) [effective tax rate (ETR)], contributing to the literature by confirming, in relation to current taxes, the theoretical prediction that penalties applied to directors are more effective, from the point of view of the tax authority, in controlling tax avoidance.

DOES TAX AVOIDANCE DIFFER BETWEEN ECONOMIES AND SECTORS? DETERMINANTS OF TAX AVOIDANCE IN DEVELOPED AND EMERGING ECONOMIES

Purpose This study aims to examine whether tax avoidance determinants result in different levels of avoidance depending on the country and sector. Prior literature finds that firms in developed countries avoid taxes (Dyreng et al. 2008, 2017). However, the level of tax avoidance differs across developed economies (Lee and Swenon, 2012; Thomsen and Watrin, 2018). In emerging economies, there are few studies that investigate tax planning and the results are not always in line with developed economies. Design/methodology/approach We expect that the extent of tax avoidance also differs between developed and emerging economies. We use a sample of firms from major economies (IMF, 2018), the G7 countries, and firms from major emerging economies, called BRICS (Brazil, Russia, India, China, and South Africa). We use a panel data multilevel analysis. Findings We find that the country and sector can influence tax avoidance practices to some extent and must be considered in the decision-making process regarding companies’ new international investments. It is also possible to observe that some determinants of tax avoidance do not yield different tax avoidance levels across countries and sectors. Originality This study fills a gap in the tax avoidance literature, showing that tax avoidance determinants may not accurately predict tax avoidance behaviour, depending on the country, industry, and level of regulatory enforcement.

Financial constraints and corporate governance as moderating variables for the determinants of tax avoidance

The purpose of this study is to empirically investigate the effect of financial constraints and corporate governance as moderating variables on the determinants of tax avoidance, which includes foreign activity, corporate social responsibility, and political connections. All companies listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange from 2017 to 2019 are the objects of this study. The panel data regression was used to address the research question. The findings show that foreign activity, corporate social responsibility, and political connections significantly affected tax avoidance with alpha 5%. The results also show that corporate governance can reduce the positive impact of foreign activity, corporate social responsibility, and political connection on tax avoidance with alpha 1%.Moreover, financial constraints may strengthen the positive impact of corporate social responsibility on tax avoidance with alpha 5%. The findings further provide empirical evidence about one of the strategies businesses use to conduct tax avoidance, notably foreign activity, corporate social responsibility, and political connection. Thus, companies that implement good corporate governance could reduce corporate tax avoidance acts, which can harm the company’s image and lead to a decrease in company value. This study discovered a new proxy for measuring financial constraints, as well as developments in the political connection.

Determinants of tax avoidance – evidence on profit tax-paying companies in Romania

Our objective is to investigate the determinants of tax avoidance in Romanian companies in 2013–2017. Our initial sample comprises 236 privately owned companies that are payers of profit tax and have been found guilty of tax evasion. This was matched with 236 ‘compliant’ companies structured similarly by industry, whereas the final sample comprises 1674-year-observations. We defined ‘compliant’ those companies that have never been prosecuted for tax evasion. Our main finding is that larger companies with lower financial performance and lower leverage ratio are more inclined towards tax avoidance. The geographical region and the industry sector in which companies operate in are also determining their tax avoidant-behaviour. Surprisingly, the fiscal regulations amended starting with 2016 did not lead to an apparent exacerbation of tax avoidance among profit tax payers.

Determinantes da evasão fiscal em instituições financeiras: evidências do Brasil e dos Estados Unidos

O presente artigo analisa os determinantes da evasão fiscal em instituições financeiras. Foram analisadas, inicialmente, 131 instituições financeiras brasileiras e 2.886 instituições financeiras americanas do período de 2008 a 2017, perfazendo 28.590 observações. Foram calculadas as duas principais métricas de agressividade fiscal presentes na literatura nacional e internacional (Book-Tax Differences - BTD e Cash ETR). Utilizaram-se quatro estratégias econométricas: Método dos Mínimos Quadrados (MQO), Efeitos Fixos, Efeitos Aleatórios e Método Generalizado de Momentos Sistêmico (GMM-Sis). Foi constatado que para a amostra do Brasil, há algumas evidências de que intangíveis, tamanho e retorno sobre ativos (ROA) são alguns determinantes da evasão fiscal . Para a amostra dos Estados Unidos verificou que há algumas evidências de que tamanho e débitos totais são alguns determinantesda evasão fiscal. Um determinante em comum nas duas amostras é o tamanho. Esse resultado está alinhado com a literatura que prevê que empresas maiores têm mais condições de praticar evasão fiscal. Este estudo contribui para maior compreensão das práticas de planejamento tributário realizadas pelas empresas financeiras.

How Reliably Do Empirical Tests Identify Tax Avoidance?

ABSTRACTResearch on the determinants of tax avoidance have relied on tests using GAAP and cash effective tax rates (ETRs) and total and permanent book‐tax differences. Two new proxies have emerged that overcome documented limitations of these proxies: one, developed by Henry and Sansing (2018), allows for more meaningful interpretation of results estimated in samples that include loss observations. The other, reserves for unrecognized tax benefits (UTB), provides new data on tax uncertainty. We offer empirical evidence on how well tests using these new proxies perform relative to those extensively used in prior research. The paper finds that tests using the proxy developed by Henry and Sansing (2018) have lower power relative to those using other proxies across all samples, including a sample that includes loss observations. In contrast, when firms accrue reserves for uncertain tax avoidance, tests using the current‐year addition to the UTB have the highest power across all proxies, samples, and levels of reserves. In the absence of reserves, tests using the GAAP ETR best detect uncertain tax avoidance, on average. This study contributes to the literature by using a controlled environment to provide the first large‐scale empirical evidence on how the power of tests varies with the use of relatively new proxies, the inclusion of loss observations, and the advent of FIN 48.

Corporate Governance and Leverage on Tax Aggressiveness: Empirical Study on Mining Companies in Indonesia

This study aims to investigate the effect of corporate governance and leverage towards tax aggressiveness. The research data comprises 66 firm-year obtained from 11 mining companies during 2013-2018. They were sorted using a purposive sampling method. The hypotheses were tested using multiple regression analysis.

Determinants of tax avoidance: Evidence from Indonesian mining industry

Tax avoidance is one of the company strategies to alleviate the company's tax burden by minimizing the amount of tax that must be paid legally. The mining sector is the most vulnerable sector to practice tax avoidance because this sector gains large profits from the mining activities carried out. This study aims to empirically examine the influences of executive incentive, corporate risk, corporate governance, and accounting conservatism on tax avoidance. The research population of this study was mining companies listed in the Indonesia Stock Exchange (IDX) from 2012 to 2017 as many as 41 companies. These research samples were 5 companies or 30 observation data selected by purposive sampling method. The data used is secondary data which is then analyzed using multiple regression. The result of the research showed that audit quality and accounting conservatism had negatively significant effects on tax avoidance. Meanwhile, executive incentive, corporate risk, institutional ownership, independent commissioners, and audit committee did not effect on tax avoidance.
