Chapter 1: INTRODUCTION


1.1. REASONS FOR CHOOSING THE STUDY

Tax planning (KHT), in English is Tax planning, is a set of activities planned towards the legal exploitation of policies and mechanisms to create tax benefits, thereby expecting to create added value for the company. The goal of KHT is to optimize the amount of tax payable by reducing, extending, exempting and deferring taxes. Accordingly, KHT can bring about increased benefits, positively affecting the market value of the company, while also increasing the value of the owner's assets.

In the financial planning of companies, KHT is identified as an indispensable and important part, because tax costs are recorded and are not directly priced, directly affecting the company's profits. According to management theory, financial managers will try to save costs to bring the company more profits, which is the basis for increasing enterprise value (GTDN).

Many previous empirical studies have evaluated the impact of tax avoidance on corporate value, however, the results of these studies are inconsistent, including: (i) tax avoidance positively affects corporate value. (ii) tax avoidance negatively affects corporate value. (iii) tax avoidance does not affect corporate value. In other words, tax avoidance of enterprises in different contexts has/does not affect corporate value, especially this relationship depends on corporate governance characteristics. Desai & Dharmapala (2009) is the first study to propose the need to evaluate the impact of governance factors - represented by ownership of institutional investors on the relationship between tax avoidance and corporate value. However, Desai & colleagues (2009) and previous studies only relied on traditional agency theory, the issue of conflict of interest between owners and managers, to explain the influence of KHT on corporate value without mentioning the issue between large shareholders and small shareholders or the conflict of interests.


It is the shareholders who control the State in the trade-off between the purpose of tax collection and the purpose of increasing the value of shares.

In Vietnam, the State plays an important role in listed enterprises, the State is a shareholder, and at the same time the issuer of tax policies and tax collection. Thus, performing two functions at the same time, how will the role of the State affect the relationship between KHT and the current listed enterprise value? This is a research topic that has not been explored in previous related studies, especially for the case of Vietnam.

Therefore, the thesis will study the mechanism through which KHT affects the value of non-financial listed enterprises in Vietnam. Does KHT affect the value of enterprises in Vietnam? What is the regulatory role of State ownership in the relationship between KHT and enterprise value? Is the level of State ownership a new factor added to clarify the impact of KHT on enterprise value?

The thesis continues to expand more than previous empirical studies on the interpretation of the impact of tax planning on corporate value, mainly based on modern agency theory, manager theory and other related theories. In which, modern agency theory points out the contradiction of state shareholders when choosing between the tax collection goal and the asset price increase goal. Therefore, the thesis topic on " The impact of tax planning on corporate value: The case of non-financial enterprises listed in Vietnam " ensures both scientific significance, practical value and new contributions.
