Tax increase of 107 percent? Indeed

Petter Bjerksund and Guttorm Schjelderup: Menon's "summary of knowledge" is tax propaganda. It polarises the debate, undermines NHO's reputation and prevents a tax policy compromise that could give companies stable tax framework conditions.

In summary, we can conclude that the assumptions behind the calculation of the figure 107 percent and the consequences it has for Menon's tax burden fraction are wrong, Petter Bjerksund and Guttorm Schjelderup write.

Their feature article Skatteøkning på 107 prosent? Særlig (in Norwegian) was published in Dagens Næringsliv on 9 December, 2024.
