The Implications For Australian Businesses Of Recent Developments In Us State Taxation Of Online Cross-Border Sales, Walter Hellerstein

Popular Media

Although there is no broad-based national consumption tax in the United States, 45 of the 50 states and the District of Columbia, as well as thousands of local jurisdictions, impose general retail sales taxes. For the twelve-month period ending in September 2020, sales taxes yielded USD 333 billion or 31.1 per cent of state tax revenues.

The US Supreme Court’s 2018 decision in South Dakota v. Wayfair, Inc. dramatically expanded the US states’ power to require remote suppliers to collect taxes on in-bound sales to local consumers. The decision repudiated the pre-existing, judicially created constitutional rule limiting the states’ …

Avoiding Taxes In Islamic Jurisprudence And Shariah, Sayid Hassan Abdallah

UAEU Law Journal

This research discusses the phenomenon of the financer’s refusal to pay taxes and trying to benefit from the loopholes in the writing of the laws and the intentions behind them.

Rebellion, Rascals, And Revenue: Pleasingly Gaudy And Preposterous, Reuven S. Avi-Yonah

Law & Economics Working Papers

Michael Keen and Joel Slemrod’s REBELLION, RASCALS AND REVENUE: TAX FOLLIES AND WISDOM THROUGH THE AGES (Princeton University Press, 2021) is a wonderful book, which should be read by any student of taxation. To most tax policy makers and academics, tax history may seem a bit arcane, because they believe that the study of taxation and especially public finance economics is a story of progress and that we know better how to design good tax systems than our ancestors. To this attitude, Keen and Slemrod offer a decisive rejoinder: We do not necessarily understand taxation better than our predecessors, and …

Tax Treaties, The Constitution, And The Noncompulsory Payment Rule, Reuven S. Avi-Yonah

Law & Economics Working Papers

US Tax treaties have been regarded as self-executing since the first treaty (with France) was ratified in 1932. Rebecca Kysar has argued this raises a doubt on whether the treaties are constitutional, because tax treaties (like other treaties) are negotiated by the executive branch and ratified by the Senate with no involvement by the House, and all tax-raising measures must originate in the House under the Origination Clause (U.S. Const. Art I, section 7, clause 7). Her preferred solution is to make tax treaties non-self executing, but that would reverse the universal practice since 1932, and is therefore unlikely. Moreover, …

Healthcare As One Of Jordanian Tax Legislation Purposes A Comparative Study, Mwaffaq Almahameed

UAEU Law Journal

Tax legislation purposes, in the modern financial literature, are not limited to collecting revenues that cover expenditures neutrally without taking into consideration society’s political, economical and social circumstances. Tax, as a financial duty, aims to achieve a country’s variant purposes, including the healthcare purpose which may appear clearly and separately or within the social purpose contents. This is supported by the constitutional confirmation on the importance of complying with the social justice and persons' ability to pay. As a result, a close relationship is emerging between tax legislation purposes on one hand, and using tax as a tool in achieving …

Tax Avoidance By Professionals: Where Are We With Wee Teng Yau?, Vincent Ooi

Research Collection Yong Pung How School Of Law

Wee Teng Yau represents the first case on tax avoidance by professionals to come before the Supreme Court. This note attempts to reconcile the judgments of the High Court and the Income Tax Board of Review, which both made findings that the taxpayer had engaged in tax avoidance, but which approached the case rather differently on some points. Apart from a clear rejection of the “personal exertion” principle as having no legal basis under Singapore law, it appears that the common conclusion is that professionals incorporating a company would not constitute tax avoidance in itself, but if this was coupled …

Measuring Illicit Cigarette Trade: The Case Of The Philippines, Myrna S. Austria, Alyssa Cyrielle B. Villanueva

Angelo King Institute for Economic and Business Studies (AKI)

Illicit cigarette trade, or the manufacture, distribution and sale of cigarettes that evade taxes and violate trademarks, persists in the Philippines. Using the residual methods, this study estimated the size of illicit cigarette trade in the country covering the period 2009-2017 and the corresponding tax revenue lost. The estimates show that illicit trade has flourished after the increase in excise tax; thus, undermining the effectiveness of the series of tax policy reforms meant to lower, if not eliminate, tobacco use in the country. The magnitude ranges from 3.3% to 42.8% of total cigarette consumption, depending on the threshold of under-reporting …

Federalizing Tax Justice, Reuven Avi-Yonah, Orli Avi-Yonah, Nir Fishbien, Hayian Xu

Articles

The United States is the only large federal country that does not have an explicit way to reduce the economic disparities among more and less developed regions. In Germany, for example, federal revenues are distributed by a formula that takes into account the relative level of wealth of each state (the so-called Finanzausgleich, or fiscal equalization). Similar mechanisms are found in Australia, Canada, India, and other large federal countries. The United States, on the other hand, has no such explicit redistribution. Each state is generally considered equal and sovereign, and the federal government does not distribute revenues to equalize …

Analysing The Trend Of Illicit Tobacco In The Philippines From 1998 To 2018, Monica Paula Lavares, Hana Ross, Ariza Francisco, Nadia Doytch

Ateneo School of Government Publications

Tobacco taxation is the most effective measure to reduce cigarette consumption and consequently improve public health outcomes. It is also an important source of government revenue. The presence of an illicit tobacco market diminishes the public health and fiscal gains of cigarette levies by making cheaper non-taxed cigarettes available. To date, the research on the extent of illicit tobacco trade in the Philippines, despite its potential to inform policies for controlling the supply of illicit cigarettes, has been limited. This study provides an estimate of the size of the illicit tobacco market in the Philippines from 1998 to 2018. It …

The Role Of The Jordanian Income Tax Law (Jitl) In Supporting Charity Work: A Comparative Study, Ibrahim Kamel Al-Shawabkeh

Such recognition has been manifested in granting these associations a favorable tax treatment regarding their incomes and donations received by the. This paper seeks to explore and examine the extent to which the (JITL) has succeeded in adopting an incentive policy which supports and encourages the charity and voluntary services especially; in light of the current difficult economic social circumstances in Jordan .The paper examines the theoretical …

Taxing Parents: Welfarist Theories, Shannon Weeks Mccormack

BYU Law Review

The Internal Revenue Code (the "Code") taxes parents inequitably. Couples with a sole earner are undertaxed compared to couples with dual earners and to single parents. Legal tax scholarship (including my own) has identified the many inequities that result from this sole-earner bias and have called for its elimination. But while these arguments have been sufficient for some, they do remain susceptible to the criticism that they are theoretically incomplete.

That critique might proceed as follows. Simply establishing that an inequity exists does not create a full argument for legal reform. After all, it might be argued, the Code plays …

Political Justice And Tax Policy: The Social Welfare Organization Case, Philip T. Hackney

Texas A&M Law Review

In addition to valuing whether a tax policy is equitable, efficient, and administrable, I argue we should ask if a tax policy is politically just. Others have made a similar case for valuing political justice as democracy in implementing just tax policy. I join that call and highlight why it matters in one arena—tax exemption. I also further that discussion by arguing that politically just tax policy does the least harm to the democratic functioning of our government and may ideally enhance it. I argue that our right to an equal voice in collective decision-making is the most fundamental value …

The Us Taxpayer Bill Of Rights: Reflections On A Toddler, Reuven S. Avi-Yonah

The following first describes the existing case law under the US TBOR. The main conclusion is that the US TBOR is a toddler with uncertain prospects. The article then offers some observations on the application of the TBOR to corporate taxpayers.

Is New York’S Mark-To-Market Act Unconstitutionally Retroactive?, Reuven S. Avi-Yonah, David Gamage, Kirk J. Stark, Darien Shanske

Articles by Maurer Faculty

It is well known in tax literature that rudimentary tax planning strategies enable wealthy individuals to avoid state and federal income tax on much of their true economic income. Indeed, the existing income tax has been described as being effectively optional for those who derive their income chiefly from the ownership of assets rather than the provision of services. The reason is — except for a few relatively narrowly tailored deemed-realization rules — both state and federal income taxes rely on the realization principle. Under realization accounting, taxpayers generally do not owe tax on economic gains until they sell their …
