The tax law enacted under former President Donald Trump, which lowered the statutory tax rate from 35 percent to 21 percent, has been in effect for four years, and Netflix has reported current federal corporate income tax rates of either 1 percent or nothing in each of those years. In other words, the company avoided more than $1 billion in taxes in 2021. The company’s current federal income tax bill is $58 million, which is just 1.1 percent of its $5.3 billion in pre-tax profits for the year and a pittance compared to the $1.1 billion it would have paid at the statutory federal rate of 21 percent. income of $5.3 billion is almost twice the record-breaking $2.7 billion in profits it enjoyed in 2020. Released last week, the company’s 2021 financial report shows it doubled its profits to $5.3 billion from the previous year and reported an effective federal corporate income tax rate of 1.1 percent.Īt a time when many small businesses face pandemic-related challenges, Netflix is among large corporations that are handsomely profiting from changing consumer behavior.
