Abstract

This paper investigates the actual size of tax incentives granted to dutch companies by using financial statement data for 1592 companies for the 1994--1999 period. Empirical results indicate that dutch effective tax rates do not differ much from statutory tax rates. Although capital intensity is negatively associated with effective tax rates, only a small portion of the variance in effective tax rates can be explained. This indicates that the actual size of tax incentives granted to companies in the netherlands is quite small.
