| Research Abstract |
1 We obtained the following results by applying a symple compensation package decision model of a firm to fringe benefits taxation problems in Japan. (1) Japanese tax system gives firms implicit subsidies which consist of income tax and social security contributions savings from fringe benefits. (2) We derived the neutral tax rule to eliminate the distortion by imcome tax and social security contributions. This rule is partial deductiobility of the cost of fringe benefits against corporate income tax. (3) The Australian rule and the no deductbility rule might work as reguratory fringe benefits tax, given the levels of individual income tax, social security contributions and corporate income tax in Japan. (4) The income tax rule which includes fringe benefits in taxable income is short of administrative feasibility, and does not eliminate the social security contribution savings. (5) The optimal deductible rate of our tax rule is determined by income tax rate, social security contribution rate and corporate income rate only, if finges do not benefit the employer.
2 The results is based on simple decision model. We have to investigate more comprehensive model that includes portfolio selection of a firm.
