Fixed asset tax, which accounts for approximately 40% of local tax revenue in Japan, is taxation on lands, houses and depreciable assets. Taxation on lands had been debated a great deal since 1980, because the price of land had fluctuated so much. However, taxation on houses and depreciable assets had not been debated so much. In recent years this has caused an increasing number of people to question taxation on depreciable assets. It is a heavy burden on business enterprises in Japan. This paper attempts to determine why depreciable assets were taxed. The key factor is revaluation of assets, which is mentioned in the Shoup Recommendation of 1949.
