27、e of the expenditure, and the segment of the economy which receives the expenditure. If the economy as a whole or the segment of the economy which is the focus of the expenditure is operating at capacity or close to capacity, then the expenditures major effects will tend to be inflationary, and will

28、 not generate much employment of capital and labor. If the economy or sector is operating at much less than full employment, the expenditure will produce a genuine (non-inflationary) rise in the GNP.A true measure of the effect of governmental increase in the amount of money made available, then, is

29、 not the simple dollar value of the initial injection but the cumulative effect of this injection through spending and re-spending. In the optimum case the initial expansion of income flow could be great enough to produce tax revenues in excess of the original “deficit spending“ or the “tax cut“, so

30、 that deficits are not only smaller than the increased GNP but are recouped. In Keynesian economics the fundamental point of government policy clearly is not budget-balancing but spending in the event of unused productive capacity and unemployment. Spending increases productivity. This productivity

31、resulting from federal spending has overwhelmed the older economic myths of the balanced budget where government is conceived of as just another business firm.（分数：20.02）(1).The effect of governmental expenditures on the total economy varies with both the level of utilization of labor and capital in

37、al, investment in the United States will be in the form of a subsidiary. It is possible for a non-U.S corporation to operate a branch office in the United States, but there are significant disadvantages to a branch, particularly with respect to its tax treatment.Branches of non-U.S corporations are

38、not subject to federal regulation or registration requirements. However, each state will require a “foreign“ corporation to “qualify“ before “doing business“ in that state. A corporation will be considered “foreign“ if it is organized under the laws of another country or another state, and so this i

39、s not a requirement imposed only on non-U.S investors.“Doing business“ is a technical term that implies a substantial presence in the state. This would include the ownership of leasing of real property, the maintenance of a stock of goods for local sale, employee and the like. Selling products to lo

40、cal customers, either directly or through an independent sales representative or distributor, would not itself constitute “doing business“.The states actually exercise little control over the qualification process other than to ensure that the qualifying entitys name is not confusingly similar to an

41、 already registered entity and that all registration fees and taxes are paid (qualification is basically a form of taxation). In most states, qualification for a non-U.S corporation consists of a relatively easy application, a registration fee, and a notarized or legalized copy of the corporations articles of incorporation (in English or a certified translation).（分数：20.00）(1).In general, inves
