Adjusting the foreign tax credit for an economic recession
Article Abstract:
The foreign loss recapture rule in IRC 904(f), for foreign tax credits, creates an inequity for US companies that experience a loss in the US. The rule was designed to prevent abuse of the credits through double benefit but in effect results in double taxation on domestic losses. Therefore, domestic losses should be able to offset foreign profits in excess of the foreign tax credit limitation to create a level playing field for multinational corporate competition.
