Conclusion; ReferencesThe structure of Japan's corporate income tax system is broadly in line with those of other G7 countries. However, relatively high marginal and average effective tax rates prompt the question of whether adjustments should be considered to meet the objectives of promoting growth, investment and competitiveness in a revenue neutral manner. This paper discusses key issues and trade-off's related to changes in the corporate income tax system. It does not provide recommendations, but raises issues that could hopefully serve as useful inputs to the ongoing discussion and tax debate in Japan.IMF Working Papers; Working Paper ;No. 2008/070CorporationsTaxationJapanInvestments: GeneralimfPublic FinanceimfTaxationimfCorporate TaxationimfBusiness Taxes and SubsidiesimfTaxation, Subsidies, and Revenue: GeneralimfInvestmentimfCapitalimfIntangible CapitalimfCapacityimfCorporate & business taximfPublic finance & taxationimfMacroeconomicsimfCorporate income taximfCorporate taxesimfAverage effective tax rateimfDepreciationimfRevenue administrationimfTaxesimfMarginal effective tax rateimfTax policyimfNational accountsimfCorporationsimfTax administration and procedureimfSaving and investmentimfRevenueimfIncome taximfJapanimfCorporationsTaxationInvestments: GeneralPublic FinanceTaxationCorporate TaxationBusiness Taxes and SubsidiesTaxation, Subsidies, and Revenue: GeneralInvestmentCapitalIntangible CapitalCapacityCorporate & business taxPublic finance & taxationMacroeconomicsCorporate income taxCorporate taxesAverage effective tax rateDepreciationRevenue administrationTaxesMarginal effective tax rateTax policyNational accountsCorporationsTax administration and procedureSaving and investmentRevenueIncome tax336.243Dalsgaard Thomas1610002DcWaIMFBOOK9910818151403321Japan’s Corporate Income Tax—Overview and Challenges3937533UNINA
