This volume presents seven theoretical essays examining the effects of capital income taxation on the behavior of firms. It examines optimal tax design, firm financial policy, and inflation. The essays demonstrate the powerful role taxes play in shaping the behavior of American corporations, and also provide insights into the task of tax reform.

Combining late-1990s country-by-country generational analyses with a comprehensive review of generational accounting's innovative methodology, these papers form a resource for economists, political scientists and policy makers concerned with fiscal health and responsibility.
