The Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (TCJA) of 2017 altered the taxation of business income. These changes will affect investment incentives, compensation policies, and the income amounts firms report to their shareholders. Join the Urban-Brookings Tax Policy Center and the University of North Carolina Tax Center (an affiliated center of the University of North Carolina Kenan Institute for Private Enterprise) as experts in financial accounting and economics offer their perspectives on these questions:
- What are the TCJA’s potential short- and long-term effects on reported earnings?
- How will the TCJA affect cost of capital and investment incentives in different industries, for different assets, and for different financing methods?
- What will be the effects of the changes in international tax rules on reported earnings and location incentives?
- What will be the TCJA’s effects on organizational forms and structures?
- How are firms reacting to the TCJA?
