   Nyckelord :SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES;

   Sammanfattning : How should a tax on realized capital gains be designed in order to yield the same revenue and the same impacts on savings and portfolio choice as a tax on current income? Should income from risky investments be taxed at a higher or lower rate than income from assets without risk? How is the capital structure and the dividend policy of firms determined in the presence of taxes and what are the effects of tax differentials on the debt ratio, on the dividend policy, on the capial intensity, on the willingness to take nonfinancial risks and on the welfare of workers and investors?
