Theory of the multinational firm: an analysis of effects of government policies

Abstract

The impacts of several government policies on the decisions of the multinational firm (MNF) and the effects of these companies on the economies of the countries are examined. The MNFs are found to broaden a country's scope, particularly in the area of income tax policies and transfer pricing. A foreign tax reduction for the MNF helps to promote the sale and production of local firms in the host country, while a home tax increase for the MNF promotes sale and production in the home country. Foreign sale of the final good rises relative to home when the home currency is devalued and, while it contributes to the balance of trade of the home country, it has a negative effect on the balance of services. 13 references.
