Abstract: | Given finite horizons, it is examined how capital gains taxes affect the valuation of a share of stock in the traditional constant growth model. The role of personal taxes is explored at a deeper level than has heretofore been provided in the literature. It is shown that it is not in general accurate to assume that the after-tax required rate of return and the growth in dividends per share are independent of the tax rate. It is presented, that the direction of asset value as a function of the capital gains tax rate is indeterminate and it is possible to create a tax regime so that tax rate changes have no influence on asset values. |
