Abstract:
This study investigates the impact of tax incentives, specifically rural investment allowances and pioneer status, on compliance among listed food and beverage firms in Nigeria. Using regression analysis, we found that rural investment allowances significantly enhance compliance, explaining 97.8% of the variance, while pioneer status shows a non-significant impact. The findings highlight the importance of targeted tax incentives in promoting regulatory adherence and economic development. Recommendations include enhancing rural investment allowance programs, leveraging incentives for operational efficiency, and reevaluating the pioneer status framework to ensure effectiveness in encouraging compliance and investment. These insights offer valuable guidance for policymakers and businesses.
