摘要
张维迎和林毅夫就"政府是否应该制定产业政策"展开了激烈争论。与他们从较为宏观的视角分析不同,本文利用《高新技术企业认定管理办法》确立的公司研发投入占销售收入之比这一"一刀切"的微观认定门槛,研究公司是否会操纵研发投入以满足相关标准。研究发现,研发收入之比的分布在法规门槛附近不连续,这确认了公司研发操纵行为的存在。基于分布不连续特征定义的研发操纵公司获得了更多的税收优惠和政府补助。进一步地,研发操纵现象在民营企业、盈利企业以及位于税收征管力度较弱地区的企业中更为显著,且研发操纵公司的研发投入与公司未来发明专利申请、发明专利授权数量间的正相关关系更弱。研究表明,与政策制定者的初衷不同,研发激励政策会激励公司进行研发操纵,最终导致公司研发绩效下降。本文不仅为产业政策引发的激励扭曲效应提供了微观证据,还为更好地制定和执行高新技术企业认定政策提供了理论参考。
