Abstract

Logit analysis was used to evaluate the factors considered by the Tax Court in deciding step transaction doctrine cases. Using a sample of 117 Tax Court cases, a logit model was estimated based upon eight variables. The existence of a preconceived plan and the economic interdependence of the steps were identified as the variables mostly likely to affect the decision of the Tax Court.
