Taxation And Finance

The analysis relating investment to the net rate of return is the simplest possible model of investment behavior. The economy is treated like a black box in which the mechanism is obscure but which produces the plausible result that more capital flows into nonfinancial corporate capital when the rate of return on that type of asset is high. We now turn to a more explicit model of investment behavior in which corporate demand to invest reflects the difference between the profitability of new additions to the stock of plant and equipment and the cost of funds with which to finance that investment. This approach, labeled the return over cost model of investment, differs from the previous analysis in two fundamental ways. First, the investment decision is explicitly made by the corporation. Second, the decision reflects a comparison of the cost of funds and the prospective yield on new marginal investments rather than the yield on existing capital.

The return over cost model is the empirical implementation in a world of taxes and mixed debt-equity finance of the simple textbook model in which the rate of investment depends on the rate of interest and the marginal efficiency of investment. To make that operational, the location of the investment demand schedule is represented by the rate of return that the firm can afford to pay for funds used to finance a “typical” project. This return, which we label the “maximum potential net return”, is analogous to the internal rate of return of a project in an economy without taxes. Changes in tax rules, inflation, and pretax profitability all alter the maximum potential net return and therefore the incentive to invest.
