Abstract

Oil price changes has a great influence on the behaviour of firms in oil exporting countries which displays itself in amount of non-oil tax receipts of the state budget. Employing FMOLS, DOLS, and CCR cointegration methods for 2001Q1-2015Q4, the study aims to analyse how oil price changes affects non-oil tax revenues in Azerbaijan. Empirical results altogether provide strong scientific evidence that there is U-shaped causality from oil price changes to total non-oil tax revenues , corporate income tax receipts and labour income tax payments , and inverse U-shaped to non-oil VAT revenues of the state budget. Results show that firms face with the trade-off between "produce-and-sell" and "import-and-sell" as oil price rises. In case of higher price than the threshold level, companies prefer the latter choice. Research findings are highly useful for the public policy decision-makers in resource rich economies.
