Digitalization And Tax-Motivated Income Shifting, Devenni Putri Fau, Lestari Kurniawati

BISNIS & BIROKRASI: Jurnal Ilmu Administrasi dan Organisasi

Numerous studies show that the tax rate difference between parent and subsidiaries as well as among subsidiaries acts as the incentive for income shifting between multinational corporations (MNCs). Digital business models that emerged as an impact of digital transformation may exacerbate income shifting by MNCs. However, empirical studies to support the relation between digital business models and income shifting is still scarce. Thus, this study examined whether Indonesia’s foreign-owned manufacturing companies shift income in respect to its foreign-parent tax rate and if the level of digitalization exacerbates the practice. This study used the income-shifting approach by Hines and Rice (1994) …
