| Objectives |
The students are able to explain the basic structure, principles and traits of tax systems commonly found in most OECD member states. They have basic knowledge of the typically levied types of taxes in these states and are able to identify the corresponding taxable items and events on a general level. They can apply this knowledge to a business context and know which taxes generally affect business structures and processes, either financially or by forcing procedural obligations upon them. In turn, they can analyze how taxation might influence business decisions. Through that knowledge, students are aware of the general tax risks associated with entrepreneurial activity and the relations between taxation and accounting.
