Abstract:
Purpose – When a small business purchases a capital asset, its cost for tax purposes is spread over the useful life of the asset through the process of depreciation. It has become common in the USA for policy makers to enhance depreciation rules in an effort to increase business investment in a less-costly manner than across-the-board marginal tax rate cuts. Indeed, short-term depreciation policies are often billed by policy makers as a way to save America's small businesses. However, little is known about the actual effects of depreciation policies on small business activity. This paper aims to discuss these issues. Design/methodology/approach – In this initial attempt to test the political claims regarding the importance of depreciation rules, the paper uses a 12-year panel of tax returns for Schedule C sole proprietors to empirically examine whether more generous depreciation policies influence small business activity at the extensive margin. Specifically, the paper estimates a series of multivariate models to explain sole proprietors’ decisions to remain in business as functions of their financial, demographic, and tax situations, including measures of the present discounted value (PDV) of a stream of tax deductions for depreciated capital under various rule structures. Findings – Throughout the analysis, the authors are unable to find evidence that favorable depreciation rules lead to greater rates of entrepreneurial longevity among Schedule C sole proprietors. Originality/value – Discrete choice results suggest that increases in the PDV of tax reductions from depreciation (e.g. depreciating the value earlier in the recovery period) might actually lead to higher probabilities of small business exit, while survival analysis finds no clear influence of depreciation on spells of small business activity.

Abstract:
AbstractThe 1986 Tax Reform Act established a first year $10,000 expensing option and, for most farm equipment, a 7-year depreciation schedule. Under a profit maximization criterion, these tax law features can lead to multiple optima dependent upon discount and marginal tax rates. For example, the economically efficient time to reinvest under a 2 percent after-tax discount rate is at 4, 8, and 30 years for the grower in a 33 percent tax bracket. Thus, the profit maximization behavioral rule needs to be supplemented with knowledge about a farmer's objectives in order to select the “correct” optimal reinvestment interval.

Abstract:
The feasibility and economic analysis of bread production for a modern cottage bread production business in Gashua, Yobe State was analysed. This assessment involved analysis of the project to determine the viability, cost, and benefits associated with a bakery project before financial resources are allocated. The capital investment for the bakery establishment was estimated at ₦10,316,303.00 with maximum capacity to utilise 10 bags of flour (50 kg) per day. The production capacity is to increase at 50, 60, 75, 85 and 90 mi efficiency for five years respectively. The cost of production ranged between ₦30,776,550 to 45,059,946.85 while the profit after tax ranged from ₦12,783,071 to 18,878,298.79 for five years. The non current asset schedule annual depreciation was estimated at #655,000. The cash flow and breakeven point were at ₦41,395,161 and 27,705 respectively. Bakery business in Gashua is worthwhile for entrepreneur as profit making venture.

Abstract:
ABSTRACT: Residual income is a popular performance metric that is often calculated from financial accounting numbers. Practitioners argue that financial accounting earnings and book value suffer from various biases and should be adjusted prior to the residual income calculation so that the resulting residual income metric will have better incentive properties, but they often disagree about what the adjustments should be. Using the criterion that a residual income performance metric should align owner and managerial investment incentives, I develop a simple investment model to show how financial accounting choices and adjustments must be chosen jointly to achieve incentive alignment. In particular, I examine conflicting recommendations from the practitioner literature about the proper adjustment for deferred taxes and show that more than one adjustment method can achieve incentive alignment if paired with the correct depreciation schedule. Further, I show that relationships among accounting variables introduce constraints that make some policies or adjustments more difficult to work with. The paper concludes with a brief discussion about how the use of sub-optimal adjustments can negatively influence the manager’s investment incentives.

Abstract:
This study looks at historical evidence of national jurisdictions from the First World War onwards using accelerated depreciation as a means to encourage investment, particularly in new technologies. In particular, it provides an overarching analysis of previous scholarly and technical literature on the implementation of these schemes. Overall, the study finds that approaches to the precise accounting methods used to encourage this innovation were dictated, in the main, by three predominant social discourses. In chronological order, these were national defence, economic growth and environmentalism. The historical evidence reveals a number of potential pitfalls associated with accelerated depreciation’s introduction, together with its more positive effects. Although the emphasis is on the historical application of accelerated depreciation schedules, the study reveals a number of problems associated with accelerated depreciation that should be borne in mind by future policymakers interested in the possibility of using accelerated depreciation to encourage investment.

Abstract:
This study examines the determinants of technical efficiency (TE) and income inequality of family business in southwest Nigeria. Data were obtained from primary source using structured questionnaire and interview schedule. A multi-stage sampling technique was employed in selecting 120 respondents for the study. Analyses were carried out using descriptive statistics, Gini coefficient and Lorenz curve as well as the stochastic frontier production function models. The results revealed that experience, educational level, household size and method of processing were the main determinants of TE of the respondents. Results further showed that food vending was in Stage II of production surface as shown by the returns to scale (RTS) of 0.776. The variables such as cost of raw materials, labour, operating expenses, depreciation cost on equipment and duration of the business were effectively allocated and used, which was also confirmed by the estimated coefficient value of each variable between zero and unity. The technical efficiency of food vending also varied between 0.44 and 0.69 with a mean of 0.52. However, the analysis of inefficiency model revealed a positive response of age factor. This implies that age factor led to decrease in TE of food vending in the study area. Also, the result of the Gini coefficient (0.58) indicated the presence of income inequality among the food vendors which was also affirmed by the Lorenz curve. The study therefore concludes that experience, educational level, household size, age factor and processing method were the main determinants of technical efficiency and uneven income distribution among the food vendors in the study area.

Abstract:
PurposeThe purpose of this paper is to examine the use of accelerated depreciation deductions, which includes Section 179 and bonus depreciation, taken in the first year of asset life by Michigan farms. The frequency, value and influence of accelerated depreciation on farm investment are also analyzed.Design/methodology/approachAccrual adjusted income statements, balance sheets, depreciation schedules, and income tax information for 66 Michigan farms from 2004 to 2014 provide data for the analysis. The present value of the accelerated deduction and change in the cost of capital were calculated. Finally, investment elasticities were used to arrive at the change in investment due to accelerated depreciation.FindingsAccelerated depreciation was utilized across all applicable asset classes. Section 179 was used more often than bonus depreciation in part because it was available in all the examined years. Based on actual farm business use, accelerated depreciation lowered the cost of capital for the operations resulting in an estimated increase in investment of 0.27 to 11.6 percent depending on asset class.Originality/valueThe data utilized are of a detail not available in previous investigations which used either aggregate data or estimated rather than the observed use of accelerated depreciation. This analysis reveals that accelerated depreciation as used by commercial farms lowers the cost of capital and thus encourages investment particularly in machinery and equipment.
