Comments On 'Tax Neutrality Between Equity Capital And Debt', Douglas A. Kahn
Articles
Professor Andrews' proposals are aimed at eliminating a tax bias that affects a corporation's choice of a method of raising additional capital.

Professor Andrews seeks a neutral system that permits the choice of the manner in which capital is raised to be made on economic grounds without influence of the tax laws.
