Offshoring in the European Union: a Study of the Evolution of the Tax Burden
2017
One of the most serious effects of offshoring is tax avoidance, which harms the economies of the affected regions. In an attempt to eradicate tax avoidance, the EU seeks to establish tax harmonization across its Member States. Based on data for 2006-2014, this study analyzes the historical evolution and current trends of a convergence or divergence of the tax burden for 15 EU Member States.

The results imply that when the economy prospers, effective tax rates tend to converge…

From accrued to paid income tax: A review of effective tax rate calculation
2019
Los estudios que han tratado de valorar la presión fiscal de una sociedad como consecuencia del impuesto sobre sociedades recurren generalmente al impuesto devengado como aproximación, aun sabiendo que difícilmente coincidirá con la cantidad verdaderamente pagada. Sin embargo, como consecuencia de los cambios producidos en las cuentas anuales para su adaptación a la normativa internacional, contamos con una información adicional en el balance (activos y pasivos fiscales) que hace posible obtener el importe del impuesto sobre beneficios pagado por las empresas, pudiendo medir de forma más precisa su verdadera presión fiscal. Teniendo en cuenta esta circunstancia y que ya disponemos de inform…
