We find that corporate profitability serves as a full mediator in the association between CSR performance and corporate tax avoidance. CSR performance reduces corporate profitability, and corporate profitability in turn increases the level of corporate tax avoidance. In other words, CSR performance first reduces corporate profitability, and therefore results in lower corporate tax avoidance. Moreover, CSR performance does not significantly moderate the effect of corporate profitability on corporate tax avoidance. Therefore, our results suggest that CSR performance has an indirect, but not a conditional, effect on the level of corporate tax avoidance. | 關聯: | Asia-Pacific Journal of Accounting and Economics, Vol.26, pp.90-107 | 資料類型: | article | DOI: | https://doi.org/10.1080/16081625.2019.1546157 |
