Synopsis

The first edition of this book-Taxation in Ghana: A Fiscal Policy Tool for Development- is the product of considerable tax research from 1943 to 2018, spanning a period of 75 years and grounded in knowledge and concepts; as well as, applications through an extended period of tax practice, teaching and learning; combined with international exposure. A lot of insights have been illuminated based on lessons learned and drawn from other countries, including the United States of America to enrich the contents. Against the backdrop of the dynamic nature of taxation and fiscal policy. Most of the existing taxation books in Ghana focused on tax practice. So, the purpose of this book is to bridge the taxation scholarship gap. In addition to traditionally-treated topics in most taxation books in Ghana, the novelty in this book is the inclusion of important topics on tax planning, tax reforms, and tax administration, and many more. As a result, specific recommendations have been proffered for the consideration of policy makers in developing countries. References and Acts of Parliament; supported by appendices have been provided for further studies on the subject. A true story of the first major oil discovery in Ghana by Mr. George Yaw Owusu with M. Rutledge McCall published 2017 in the United States of America: In Pursuit of JUBILEE was used to enrich the discussion on petroleum (Oil and Gas) in Chapter 48 of this textbook. Additionally, Apostle Professor Opoku Onyinah of the Church of Pentecost has been presented for his phenomenal transformational leadership in Africa in Chapter 66. The book has been designed for: (1) Individual study, (2) Group study, (3) Lecture material, (4) Policy Manual, and (5) library or reference.
