The first of our three Tax Foundation University 2022 sessions will explain key parts of the corporate and international tax code, the current tax landscape, implications of scheduled and potential changes, and the latest research on who bears the burden of corporate income taxes.
We will discuss key concepts proposed as part of the Build Back Better agenda, such as profit shifting, differences between taxable and book income, and the tax treatment of other types of financial income. To finish, we will offer a lay of the land for international tax provisions and how the OECD tax deal could play a significant role in U.S. tax policy.
