It is not a cost which can be put on a per unit basis as part of the calculations which go into price. I don't deny it, like any tax system, has a cost to the economy as a whole.

But when you set down to price your widgets there is no income tax component in that price.

That may be how you might choose & mark up your products. I markup mine to the lowest price I can with the taxes on profit all costs covered that I need to continue business considered. If a product cannot sustain a contribution to the bottom line it is dropped.

Where does the money come from to pay corporate income taxes?
