Summary
Apple, Inc. (Apple) is a U.S.-registered domestic corporation in the United States. However, it owns a subsidiary corporation in Ireland and many retail chain stores in Europe. Apple takes advantage of many differences in tax laws between the United States and Ireland, such as tax rates, tax policies and deferral tax. Apple further entered into agreement with the Irish government for the tax status of its subsidiary corporation and profit-allocation scheme, among other entities. As a result, Apple tax liability in Ireland is reduced to an unusually low level. On 30 August 2016, the European Commission (the Commission) charged the Irish government with granting preferential tax treatment and illegal tax subsidies to Apple. It also charged Apple with unreasonable business practice. As a consequence, the Commission ordered Apple to repay $14.5 billion to the Irish government. This article investigates the Irish government's tax policy and Apple's tax strategies. It further points out Apple's defense
