Federal corporate tax laws

8 pages

Our Federal corporate tax laws provide numerous incentives intended to promote certain activities, industries and job creation. Some argue that these measures are ineffective while others say that they do not go far enough in stimulating the economy and employment. Four examples of tax incentives offered by the Federal government are: (1) the Credit for Increasing Research Activities (IRC Section 41), (2) the Work Opportunity Tax Credit (IRC Section 51), (3) the Energy Tax Credit (IRC Section 48), and (4) the Domestic Manufacturing Deduction (IRC Section 199).
