Abstract: Technical innovation has become an important approach to economic development and eco-environmental carrying capacity to meet grim environmental challenges. Environmental protection tax is key to green economic transformation, and provides opportunities for manufacturing industry in green harness and promoting performance.This paper, based on Porter hypothesis and China ‘s listed manufacturing companies' data from 2009 to 2020, establishes a regression model adjusted by stock option and executive package incentives,with technical innovation as mediation, which is used to verify the effects of environmental protection tax on manufacturing performance and technical innovation. Results show that environmental protection tax is notably positive with manufacturing performance at 1% level, suggesting the tax improves performance. Environmental protection tax pushes technical innovation to increase performance level. Technical innovation partially plays a mediation between its environmental protection tax and manufacturing performance, and stock option and executives package incentives play a negative mediation: the higher stock option and executive package incentives, the lower the manufacturing performance from environmental protection tax on technical innovation. Imposing environmental protection tax has initially gained achievements, providing references to further reform environmental protection tax and improve manufacturing performance level. This paper presents suggestions for governments on continuously optimizing environmental protection tax, providing policy and regime guarantee in boosting environmental protection and promoting manufacturing industry's green transformation and upgrade, and for manufacturing industry on fulfilling technical innovation, conducting green harness to reach a quality development.

Key words: environmental protection tax, technical innovation, manufacturing performance, mediation; moderation

摘要: 面对严峻的环境挑战,技术创新成为解决经济社会发展和生态环境承载力两大问题的重要途径;环境保护税是实现经济绿色转型发展的重要工具,为制造业企业绿色治理、绩效提升提供了重要契机。基于波特假说理论,以2009—2020年中国制造业上市企业数据为研究样本,构建以技术创新为中介,以股权集中度和高管薪酬激励为调节的回归模型,实证检验环境保护税对制造业企业绩效的影响以及技术创新的作用效果,进而探讨股权集中度和高管薪酬激励调节效应的作用机理。研究表明:环境保护税与制造业企业绩效在1%的水平上呈显著正相关,征收环境保护税能够提升制造业企业绩效水平;环境保护税会倒逼技术创新,提升制造业企业绩效水平,技术创新在环境保护税和制造业企业绩效间起部分中介作用;股权集中度和高管薪酬激励负向调节技术创新的中介作用,股权集中度和高管薪酬激励越高,环境保护税通过技术创新影响制造业企业绩效的作用越弱。通过以上实证研究发现,征收环境保护税取得了初步成效,为进一步推进环境保护税制度改革和提升企业绩效水平提供了重要经验证据。政府应不断完善环境保护税制,充分发挥环境保护税的政策效果,为加强环境保护、促进制造业企业绿色转型升级提供政策支持与制度保障;充分发挥技术创新驱动作用,积极开展绿色治理活动,以实现制造业企业高质量发展。
