答复:2017年的美国税改法(俗称《2017年减税和就业法案》)使得美国的全球税制与
其它国家的属地税制更加接近了。值得一提的是,美国建立了一项参与豁免制度,同时
强化了受控外国公司制度。此外,该法案对受控外国公司的某些收入实施了一次性的过
渡税作法。该法案全文及相关会议报告均已出版,具体见:

答复:《2017年减税和就业法案》降低了几乎所有收入层次的边际税率,同时提高了标准扣除额。该
法案还提高了儿童退税和额外儿童退税的最高额度,并使这项退税惠及更多家庭,从而为抚养子女的
家庭提供了更多支持。但是,该法案没有改变教育和培训方面的个税减免规定。因此,大多数家庭的
联邦收入所得税都将因该法案的实施而减少。欲了解更多详情,请参见:

答复:据美国国会税务联合委员会估算,《2017年减税和就业法案》2019年的总减税额将达2590
亿美元,其中1800亿美元将来自个税改革,而790亿美元将来自企业税改革。新法将为每个家庭减
少达1500美元的联邦税负,并惠及所有收入层次的纳税人。绝大多数的家庭都将获得减税。另据非
党派的税收政策中心估算,2018年,约80%的美国家庭都将获得联邦税减免待遇,只有5%的家庭
将出现税负增加的现象。2018年,约15%的美国家庭联邦税负不会发生任何变化

的联邦税负,若干中低收入群体的减税幅度将超过8%。相比之下,年收入在100万美元或100万
美元以上的纳税人(即收入最高的0.3%的纳税人)的减税幅度将低于平均水平,为5.9%。此外,
新法还略微改变了联邦税负在各收入群体之间的分担方式

答复:从许多方面看,现在就评估《2017年减税和就业法案》对增长的影响仍为时过早。但是,该
法案降低了个税税率,提高了标准扣除额,同时提高了能够降低劳务边际税率的免税额,因而可以鼓
励劳动力供应的增加并导致增长率的提高。同样,通过降低企业税率,允许企业在分阶段退出之前5
年内进行完全费用化操作,并为某些税负转嫁企业收入新增了减税安排,该法案将降低企业的税后资
本成本。由于这些变革,就业和资本投入预计都将增加。2018年,美国的GDP增长强劲,第三季度
增长率估计达3.5%,较第二季度的4.2%略有降低。同样,企业固定投资在第三季度增长了8.2%,
而第三季度则增长了6.6%
