Book Synopsis Taxation and Gender Equity by : Caren Grown
Download or read book Taxation and Gender Equity written by Caren Grown and published by IDRC. This book was released on 2010 with total page 349 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Around the world, there are concerns that many tax codes are biased against women, and that contemporary tax reforms tend to increase the incidence of taxation on the poorest women while failing to generate enough revenue to fund the programs needed to improve these women's lives. Because taxes are the key source of revenue governments themselves raise, understanding the nature and composition of taxation and current tax reform efforts is key to reducing poverty, providing sufficient revenue for public expenditure, and achieving social justice. This is the first book to systematically examine gender and taxation within and across countries at different levels of development. It presents original research on the gender dimensions of personal income taxes, and value-added, excise, and fuel taxes in Argentina, Ghana, India, Mexico, Morocco, South Africa, Uganda and the United Kingdom. This book will be of interest to postgraduates and researchers studying Public Finance, International Economics, Development Studies, Gender Studies, and International Relations, among other disciplines.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excise taxes on tobacco and alcohol products can be an effective instrument for promoting public health through the curbing of smoking and excessive drinking, while raising significant financing for development priorities. Designed and implement well, excise taxes represent a win-win for public health and finances. While the public policy rationale for excise reforms is strong in both developed and developing countries, realizing reforms in practice often faces significant opposition by the industry and vested interests. Low level, complex and poorly designed excise tax regimes persist. Getting the technical details right, and effectively managing the political economy of reforms, are vital to securing better excise tax outcomes. The Philippines passed in 2012, implemented, and has been results monitoring a successful tobacco and alcohol tax, dubbed Sin Tax. The reform not only greatly increased, simplified and improved the excise tax reform, but also earmarked the significant part of the large ensuring incremental revenues to helping finance Universal Health Care (UHC) for the bottom forty percent of the population.

Book Synopsis Factors Affecting Tax Evasion in Ministry of Revenues. The Case of Large Taxpayers Branch Office by :
Download or read book Factors Affecting Tax Evasion in Ministry of Revenues. The Case of Large Taxpayers Branch Office written by and published by GRIN Verlag. This book was released on 2022-11-09 with total page 90 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Master's Thesis in the subject Business economics - Accounting and Taxes, , language: English, abstract: The general objective of the study is to identify the determinant causes of tax evasion in the Ministry of Revenue Large Taxpayers branch office. This study tries to address the following specific objectives: To identify the impact of tax rate and level of income on tax evasion. To indicate whether inflation affects tax evasion or not. To show effects of the complexity of the tax system such as penalty and probability of detection on tax evasion. To detect the relationship between the perceived role of government and tax evasion. To determine the effects of attitude and perception on tax evasion. To identify the effects of age, gender, education level of taxpayers and pear pressure on tax evasion. Tax evasion is a global scenario irrespective of any attribute of a country and has been experienced in both developed as well as developing countries. Unless nations can mitigate and minimize the magnitude of tax evasion, it will be difficult to overcome illicit financial activities & cash flows and drain channels of corruption. As per the above article, Yonas Sendaba and his group's tax evasion includes all unlawful activities by a taxpayer with the motive of minimizing tax liability. It occurs when taxpayers intentionally failed to execute their tax responsibility. It is an intentional violation of laws and it is evident in situations where tax liability is fraudulently reduced, or false claims are filled on the revenue tax form. Tax evasion does not only minimizes government revenue but also harms the current and future economic development of the country. Whether evaders understand or not, they share the problem of the society caused by tax evasion. Most public goods provided by the government are financed by revenue collected from the tax. As the collection of revenue from tax and customs minimizes, the government is forced to minimize the provision of goods and services to the general public. As the result, related factors of development are affected. However, the factors of tax evasion are not well identified; there are indicators of the presence of tax evasion and its effects. Therefore, this research tries to investigate major factors of tax evasion and prioritize these factors for better recommendation to the concerned body and contribute to the improvement of the tax system.

Book Synopsis Gender Bias in Tax Systems by : Ms.Janet Gale Stotsky
Download or read book Gender Bias in Tax Systems written by Ms.Janet Gale Stotsky and published by International Monetary Fund. This book was released on 1996-09-01 with total page 22 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This paper examines the nature of gender bias in tax systems. Gender bias takes both explicit and implicit forms. Explicit gender bias is found in many personal income tax systems. Several countries, especially those in Western Europe, have undertaken to eliminate explicit gender bias in recent years. It is more difficult to identify implicit gender bias, since this depends in large part on value judgments as to desirable social and economic behavior. Implicit gender bias has also been a target for reform of tax systems in recent years.

Book excerpt: Ensuring women's economic empowerment and access to and control over resources requires an integrated approach to growth and development, focused on gender-responsive employment promotion and informed by the interdependency between economic and social development. Social objectives need to be incorporated into economic policies. Economic growth strategies should give attention to the real economy and focus on creating a gender-sensitive macroeconomic environment, full employment and decent work, access to land, property and other productive resources as well as financial services, and full coverage of social protection measures. The Survey outlines a number of concrete recommendations in these critical areas, which if adopted, will facilitate women's equitable access to and control over economic and financial resources.
Book Synopsis Gender Equality and Inclusive Growth by : Raquel Fernández
Download or read book Gender Equality and Inclusive Growth written by Raquel Fernández and published by International Monetary Fund. This book was released on 2021-03-04 with total page 50 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This paper considers various dimensions and sources of gender inequality and presents policies and best practices to address these. With women accounting for fifty percent of the global population, inclusive growth can only be achieved if it promotes gender equality. Despite recent progress, gender gaps remain across all stages of life, including before birth, and negatively impact health, education, and economic outcomes for women. The roadmap to gender equality has to rely on legal framework reforms, policies to promote equal access, and efforts to tackle entrenched social norms. These need to be set in the context of arising new trends such as digitalization, climate change, as well as shocks such as pandemics.

No dual-income household can afford not to read this book before filing their taxes. "Taxing Women is a must-have primer for any woman who wants to understand how our current tax system affects her family's economic condition. In plain English, McCaffery explains how the tax code stacks the deck against women and why it's in women's economic interest to lead the next great tax rebellion."—Patricia Schroeder "McCaffery is an expert on the interplay between taxes and social policy. . . . Devastating in his analysis. . . . Intriguing."—Harris Collingwood, Working Women "A wake-up call regarding the inequalities of an archaic system that actually penalizes women for working."—Publishers Weekly
Book Synopsis Tax, Social Policy and Gender by : Miranda Stewart
Download or read book Tax, Social Policy and Gender written by Miranda Stewart and published by ANU Press. This book was released on 2017-11-08 with total page 385 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Gender inequality is profoundly unjust and in clear contradiction to the philosophy of the ‘fair go’. In spite of some action by recent governments, Australia has fallen behind in policy and outcomes, even as the G20 group of nations, the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development and the International Monetary Fund are paying renewed attention to gender inequality. Tax, Social Policy and Gender presents new research on entrenched gender inequality in a comparative framework of human rights and fiscal sustainability. Ground-breaking empirical studies examine unequal returns to education for women and men, decision-making about child care by fathers and mothers, the history and gendered effects of the income tax and family payments, and women in the top 1 per cent. Contributors demonstrate how Australia’s tax, social security, child care, parental leave, education, work and retirement income policies intersect to compound gender inequality. Tax, Social Policy and Gender calls for a rethinking of equality and efficiency in tax and social policy and provides new policy solutions. It offers a pathway to achieve gender mainstreaming for women’s economic security and the wellbeing of all Australians.
