Abstract

Das bestehende System der internationalen Unternehmensbesteuerung sieht für multinationale Unternehmen die getrennte Gewinnbesteuerung in jedem Land ihrer Tätigkeit vor. Dies bringt hohe Verwaltungskosten für Unternehmen und Steuerbehörden und die Möglichkeit von internationaler Gewinnverlagerung mit sich. Um diesen entgegenzuwirken, präsentierte die Europäische Kommission nun eine Neuauflage des Richtlinienvorschlages für eine gemeinsame konsolidierte Körperschaftsteuer-Bemessungsgrundlage (GKKB). Demnach sollen multinationale Konzerne innerhalb der EU die Bemessungsgrundlage für die Körperschaftsteuer einheitlich berechnen. In einem zweiten Schritt soll die unternehmensweite Bemessungsgrundlage konsolidiert und anhand eines Verteilungsschlüssels auf die Mitgliedsländer aufgeteilt werden (Formelzerlegung). Diese Studie untersucht die Auswirkungen dieses Vorschlages auf die fiskalische Situation in Österreich. Wie der Vergleich der harmonisierten Bemessungsgrundlage mit der aktuellen Regelung in Österreich vermuten lässt, wären die statischen fiskalischen Auswirkungen der Einführung einer einheitlichen Bemessungsgrundlage gering. Die Konsolidierung und Formelzerlegung würde einen mäßigen Rückgang der Steuereinnahmen in Österreich bewirken. Der zweite Teil der Studie beschäftigt sich mit längerfristigen Auswirkungen des GKKB-Vorschlages und untersucht die veränderten Anreize für Unternehmen und Steuerwettbewerb. Eine Einführung der GKKB würde den Steuerwettbewerb demnach nicht vollständig eliminieren, sondern vielmehr dessen Natur wesentlich verändern. Der Wettbewerb innerhalb des Geltungsbereiches verlagert sich von Gewinnverschiebung auf Aufteilungsfaktoren. Eine Möglichkeit, diesen Wettbewerb einzuschränken, wären EU-weit verbindliche Mindeststeuersätze.
