经济概况
播报编辑
直到18世纪末,佐治亚的发展一直都很缓慢。19世纪上半叶,以奴隶制和种植园为基础的棉花种植业使佐州的经济获得迅速发展。20世纪20年代初,由于棉铃虫害袭击佐州,使该州棉花种植业遭受致命打击。二战期间,佐州成为美国的步兵训练营和飞机、军舰等军需品的供应基地,联邦政府的巨额投资为佐州的经济恢复和转型提供了良机。战后,佐州摆脱单一的农业经济,逐步走向一个以工业为主、农业发达的多元化经济。进入20世纪90年代,佐州发展加快。亚特兰大地区成为该州发展的核心。 [3]
2012年GDP为4335.69亿美元(同比增长2.1%),占全美经济总量的2.8%,居全美50个州第11位。15家《财富》500强企业总部位于佐州,包括:家得宝、UPS、可口可乐、达美航空等。 [3]

工业
纺织、运输设备制造(飞机、船舶、轿车、卡车等)、食品加工、造纸等制造业是佐州第一大产业,其中纺织工业在佐州的经济构成中占有重要位置,该州生产的簇绒地毯占全国总量一半以上,奥古斯塔、哥伦布、梅肯和罗马是该州的纺织工业中心。汽车和飞机制造集中于大亚特兰大地区,著名的军用飞机制造商洛克希德·马丁公司在马瑞埃塔设有专厂,为美国空军制造“大力神”运输机和F-22战斗机。湾流飞机公司总部位于该州萨凡纳市。通往大西洋的两个深水港萨凡纳和布伦斯威克是佐州的船舶制造基地。佐州还是美国主要的纸张、纸板产地之一。 [3]
农业
佐州是美国的农业大州,农牧业在其经济中占重要地位。全州约有5万个农场。农副产品主要有肉鸡、花生、山核桃、棉花、烟草、玉米、大豆等,其中肉鸡、花生和山核桃产量居全国首位。佐州的食品加工业较发达,主要产品有软饮料、冷冻虾、花生酱等。佐州是美国的“桃树之乡”。 [3]

佐治亚州一直凭借其良好的商业环境、优秀的人才储备以及世界一流的基础实施等无以伦比的优势,吸引着企业在此成功经营。特别是在亚特兰大地区,由于有着很多年轻的专业人士,所以更具吸引力。佐治亚州在2011年CNBC全美经商环境排名中,位居第四。在《选址顾问调查》(Site Selection Consultants Survey)中也位居第四。此外,佐治亚州还建立了佐治亚创新中心来帮助那些创新型公司。 [8]

物流环境:佐治亚拥有高效的无缝连接的海陆空运输和物流网络体系。同时,佐治亚州地处连接南北和东西的重要地理位置,人员和货物可以很便捷地从佐治亚州通过海陆空运输方式运送到美国各地、欧洲以及亚洲等地区。 [5]

投资鼓励政策
播报编辑
税收鼓励政策
第一:单因素分配法
2005年,佐治亚州成为西南部第一个采用“单因素总收入分配法”的州。该方法仅将公司在州内的收入作为州所得税的计税因素。传统的方法则将公司在州内的财产和工资均作为州所得税的计税因素。全美有13个州采用该方法。单因素法降低了开展跨州业务企业的实际税率。此外,佐治亚州不使用所谓“反射法”,即若消费者所在州未征收公司在该州销售的所得税、则公司所在州要予以征收。 [9]
第二:公司税抵免
包括就业税收抵免、港口税收抵免奖励、高质量就业抵免、研发税收抵免、大项目抵免、影视娱乐产业抵免、儿童保健抵免、工作机会税收抵免等。佐治亚州将所有郡按发展水平分为四类(1类为最不发达,4类为最发达),在发展水平较低的郡投资可获得更多的优惠。 [9]

3. 高质量就业抵免。在12个月内创造50个以上、薪资在郡平均工资110%以上的工作岗位的企业,可在5年内获得每个岗位2500-5000美元/年的税收抵减额度。7年内新增的就业均适用于该优惠。该政策允许在其他应缴税款都抵免后抵免州工资预扣税,并可在10年内结转使用。 [9]
4. 研发税收抵免。抵免额度为(研发费用 - 基础额度)*10%。基础额度为公司在佐治亚州内收入的一定比例。研发税收优惠可在使用完其他优惠后,在州所得税50%的额度内继续抵免。如仍未使用完抵免额度,可继续抵免州工资预扣税,并可在10年内结转使用。 [9]
5. 大项目税收抵免。创造1800个以上新增就业,且至少投资4.5亿美元或支付工资达到1.5亿美元/年以上的,可在5年内申请每个岗位5250美元/年的税收抵免。 [9]
6. 影视娱乐产业抵免。在佐治亚州境内投资于特定产品超过50万美元的,可免除20%的应纳税额。50万美元可以为一个项目或多个项目合计金额。若在项目宣传中加入佐治亚标志和网站链接的,可再获得10%的抵免额。特定产品包括主题电影、电视剧、广告、音乐剧、动画片、电子游戏等。该项优惠可用于抵免州所得税或州工资预扣税,还可以一次性转售或转让给其他州内纳税人。 [9]
7. 工作机会税收抵免。该项目由联邦推行,旨在促进私营企业更多雇用9个就业困难群体的人员。参与的企业可获得每个员工抵免1200-9000美元联邦所得税的奖励。雇主需向佐治亚州劳工局提出申请,以认可其雇用了目标群体人员。操作中,仅批准为雇用退伍军人的企业提供上述抵免。 [9]
第三:免税政策
1. 销售和使用税免税。佐治亚州对一系列产品和服务免除州销售和使用税,如:制造业机械设备、工业机械维修、工业材料和包装、制造业使用的能源、基础材料处理设备、污染控制设备、高科技企业的电脑软硬件、房间清洁设备、用水、电信服务等。 [9]
2. 存货免税。企业存货免交州财产税。超过6成的佐治亚郡、市实行了一级自由港免税政策,免除下列动产的财产税:制造或生产用的原材料、半成品和存货;生产后存放在佐治亚州不超过12个月的货物;1月1日存放在佐治亚州仓库、码头,将在12个月内运往外州的制成品。州以下的地方政府还可以将自由港免税政策提升为二级,即免除一级政策范围以外的其他存货的地方财产税。 [9]
