摘要

為配合促進產業升級條例落日，我國營利事業所得稅自99年度起，由25%調降至17%。其目的在於貫徹輕稅簡政、吸引外資投資。本研究欲探討營所稅調降及促產落日，是否對公司股利政策造成影響。
　　本研究以我國上市櫃公司為研究樣本，研究期間為2006年至2013年，資料來源為台灣經濟新報(TEJ)，探討營利事業所得稅調降及促產落日後，對各產業總股利發放率、現金股利率、股利發放率之影響
　　本研究實證結果發現，營所稅調降及促產落日後：1.高科技產業的現金股利發放率及股票股利發放率均顯著增加。2.傳統產業與其他產業的股票股利發放率均顯著增加。進一步以差異中差異法模型(Difference in difference，DID)分析營所稅調降及促產落日對不同稅負股利政策的影響，將產業分成三組：加稅組、減稅組與稅率不變組，利用稅制與產業的交成項分析政策實施後對企業股利發放的影響，發現稅制修改後：1.高科技產業(加稅組)相較於其他產業(稅率不變組)，股利發放行為無顯著改變。2.傳統產業(減稅組)相較於其他產業(稅率不變組)，股利發放行為無顯著改變。
