Exile To Main Street: The I.R.S.'S Diminished Role In Overseeing Tax-Exempt Organizations, Evelyn Brody, Marcus Owens
Exile To Main Street: The I.R.S.'S Diminished Role In Overseeing Tax-Exempt Organizations, Evelyn Brody, Marcus Owens
Chicago-Kent Law Review
The Internal Revenue Service’s post-Citizens United approach to political activity by would-be tax-exempt organizations has threatened the financial health of the entire agency. Suffering from a siege mentality in the best of times, the IRS predictably and understandably responded to the asserted “scandal” by retreating into a shell of bureaucratic reshuffling, management mumbo-jumbo, and paper moving. A fresh cadre of senior management lacking relevant experience has overhauled the exempt-organization function and emphasized granting recognition of exemption now and (possibly) asking questions later. The new self-certification process of exemption for small charities could also be setting the agency up for the …
Formulary Appointment In The U.S. International Income Tax System: Putting Lipstick On A Pig?, J. Clifton Fleming Jr., Robert J. Peroni, Stephen E. Shay
Formulary Appointment In The U.S. International Income Tax System: Putting Lipstick On A Pig?, J. Clifton Fleming Jr., Robert J. Peroni, Stephen E. Shay
Michigan Journal of International Law
An affiliated corporate group consists of two or more corporations linked by sufficient stock ownership to cause them to function as an economic unit instead of as independent economic actors. Thus, an affiliated corporate group engaged in international business is often referred to as a multinational enterprise (MNE), a term that we will use throughout this Article. When corporate members of an MNE engage in transactions among themselves, the prices they employ (transfer prices) will significantly affect the amount of overall MNE income that is allocated to each member and, hence, to the tax bases of the various countries in …

Corporate Taxation And International Charter Competition, Mitchell A. Kane, Edward B. Rock
Corporate Taxation And International Charter Competition, Mitchell A. Kane, Edward B. Rock
Michigan Law Review
Corporate charter competition has become an increasingly international phenomenon. The thesis of this Article is that this development in corporate law requires a greater focus on corporate tax law. We first demonstrate how a tax system's capacity to distort the international charter market depends both upon its approach to determining corporate location and upon the extent to which it taxes foreign source corporate profits. We also show, however, that it is not possible to remove all distortions through modifications to the tax system alone. We present instead two alternative methods for preserving an international charter market. The first-best solution involves …
Fishing For Rainbows, The Fsc Repeal And Extraterritorial Income Exclusion Act, Stuart Smith
Fishing For Rainbows, The Fsc Repeal And Extraterritorial Income Exclusion Act, Stuart Smith
San Diego International Law Journal
On August 30, 2002, the final decision was released in the case of United States-Tax Treatment for "Foreign Sales Corporations". The World Trade Organization arbitration panel report authorizes the European Communities to levy $4.043 billion in annual trade sanctions against imports from the United States because of a provision in the U.S. tax code. "The FSC Repeal and Extraterritorial Income Exclusion Act of 2000", the most recent of 40 years worth of half-hearted attempts by the United States to comply with world trading body regulations, is the current offender. According to the arbitration panel, the act subsidizes foreign sales by …
A New Export Policy: The Foreign Sales Corporation And State Unitary Taxation Of Foreign Source Income, Reed D. Rubinstein
A New Export Policy: The Foreign Sales Corporation And State Unitary Taxation Of Foreign Source Income, Reed D. Rubinstein
Michigan Journal of International Law
Part I of this note will examine the structure of the FSC, and analyze its potential benefits in light of the Domestic International Sales Corporation (DISC) tax incentive. Part II discusses the use of the unitary tax as a disincentive to direct foreign investment by U.S. corporations. Finally, Part III outlines the new export policy based upon a combination of the FSC export incentive and state unitary taxation of foreign-source income. If implemented, this policy would increase export production and discourage direct foreign investment, thereby making a substantial contribution to U.S. economic well-being.

Income Tax: Corporations--Incorporated Professional Service Organization Taxable As A Corporation; Kintner Regulations Held Invalid--Empey V. United States, Michigan Law Review
Michigan Law Review
Lawrence G. Empey, a lawyer, was employed by the Drexler and Wald Professional Company, an association of attorneys that had incorporated in 1961 pursuant to the Colorado Corporation Code and rule 265 of the Colorado Rules of Civil Procedure.

On his 1965 federal income tax return, he reported income consisting of his salary as an employee of the company for ten months and ten per cent of …
The Western Hemisphere Trade Corporation, Edward C. Blank, Ii
The Western Hemisphere Trade Corporation, Edward C. Blank, Ii
Vanderbilt Law Review
The existing complexity involved in the taxation of corporate income derived from sources without the United States has motivated Congress to undertake an extensive review of our governmental policy pertaining to this area of taxation. The particular provisions of the Internal Revenue Code of 1954 relating to this subject are merely an ad hoc accumulation, noticeably void of any systematic design. The intended purpose of the present congressional inquiry is to determine whether or not incentive taxation is a proper method by which this nation's foreign policies can be implemented. If it be deemed advisable to offer tax benefits to …

Domestic Corporate Tangible And Intangible Invested Capital, Frederick M. Thulin
Domestic Corporate Tangible And Intangible Invested Capital, Frederick M. Thulin
Michigan Law Review
With a tax law on the statute books that fixes a moderate flat rate of taxation on business income, no question of invested capital need be considered. The income tax laws of 1913 and 1916 and the flat rate or normal tax section of the 1917 law and the proposed 1918 law bear out this statement.
Corporate Earnings As Gains Profits And Income As Depending Upon The Time Of Their Accrual, Robert M. Drysdale, Maurice C. Mcgiffin
Corporate Earnings As Gains Profits And Income As Depending Upon The Time Of Their Accrual, Robert M. Drysdale, Maurice C. Mcgiffin
Michigan Law Review
The discussion here has to do with the earnings of corporations as taxable income, whether such earnings remain in the hands of the corporation accumulating them, or are distributed to the stockholders as dividends, the inquiry being limited, however, to the question of the time of their accrual as affecting their taxability.
