Value Added Tax
By
Alan Schenk, Oliver Oldman
Description
This book integrates legal, economic,
and administrative materials about value added tax. Its principal
purpose is to provide comprehensive teaching tools - laws, cases,
analytical exercises, and questions drawn from the experience of
countries and organizations from all areas of the world. It also
serves as a resource for tax practitioners and government officials
that must grapple with issues under their VAT or their prospective
VAT. The comparative presentation of this volume offers an analysis
of policy issues relating to tax structure and tax base as well as
insights into how cases arising out of VAT disputes have been
resolved. In the new edition, the authors have expanded the coverage
to include new VAT related developments in Europe, Asia, Africa and
Australia. A new chapter on financial services has been added as well
as an analysis of significant new cases.
