Meta-Analysis of the Effect of Taxation on Capital Structure of Companies by Ali Nassiri Aghdam, mahtab moradzadeh

“…The conclusive findings, after adjusting for publication bias and considering moderating variables, reveal that taxation exerts a minor negative influence on capital structure. Moreover, this study demonstrates that the metrics used to assess capital structure and taxation, the period of investigation, and control variables like earnings volatility, firm age, and size significantly account for the variations in outcomes across different studies. …”
