Tax expenditures -- special exemptions and exclusions, credits,
deductions, deferrals, and preferential tax rates claimed by
corporations, individuals, or both -- support federal policy goals
but result in revenue forgone by the federal government. Congress
and the administration are reexamining tax expenditures used by
corporations as part of corporate tax reform. This book describes
trends in the number of corporate tax expenditures and estimated
corporate revenue losses since 1986; describes the use of corporate
tax expenditures in 2011; and compares the size of corporate tax
expenditures to federal spending by budget function and, for tax
expenditures used only by corporations, identifies spending
programs with similar purposes. This book also uses GAO's tax
expenditures evaluation guide to determine what is known about the
deferral of income for controlled foreign corporations; deferred
taxes for certain financial firms on income earned overseas; and
the graduated corporate income tax rate.
