The effect of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017 on corporate investment1
This study examines the impact of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017 (TCJA) on U.S. corporate investment. We examine U.S. firms and compare them to Canadian firms from 2010 to 2019 in a multivariate firm fixed-effects difference-in-differences analysis. Our results indicate that investment increases for U.S. firms relative to Canadian firms after the tax cuts. We also find that capital intensive and financially constrained firms increase investment the most. We explore how the TCJA impacted firm payouts and find some evidence that the tax cuts are associated with increased dividends. The paper contributes to the literature by providing evidence on the effects of the TCJA on corporate investment which have been debated extensively by politicians, journalists, tax policy experts, and academics.
