Association between Corporate Cash Holdings and Tax Costs: Evidence from Overseas Sales / 企業現金持有與租稅成本之關連: 以海外營收為例

碩士 / 國立政治大學 / 會計學系 / 107 / The government of Japan taxes firms’ worldwide income. Income tax rate to the Japanese firms is top compared to its counterparts other OECD countries. Thus, Japanese firms have incentive to retain their revenue overseas instead of repatriating to Japan. With this tax system, Japanese firms would have incentive to hold more cash in other countries. This study aims to investigate whether tax costs of firms influences their cash holding decisions. Using Japanese firm level data, I examine the association between overseas sales and firms’ cash holding. The empirical results show that if firms have more overseas sales, they hold more excess cash. However, I find no association between excess cash holdings and existence of overseas sales.
