The elements of corporate and personal taxation are integrated into a corporate growth model describing a value maximizing firm. The choice parameters of the firm are (1) the growth rate, (2) the debt ratio. (3) the capital-labour ratio. Dividends are determined residually. The corporate tax considered is a flat-rate tax on profits as defined by the tax laws. The personal tax is a linear tax/schedule.
