Are state R&D tax credits constitutional? an economic perspective
Abstract: This Economic Letter discusses how the unique economic nature of R&D may bear on the question of the constitutionality of state R&D tax credits. In particular, I discuss the conditions laid out by the U.S. Supreme Court for determining the constitutionality of a state tax credit and how economic research can play a critical role in assessing whether these conditions are met.
Keywords: Research and development; Tax credits; Taxation;
