Abstract
To analyze the effects of competition and the forms of government on the utilization of business incentives at the local government level, this study focuses on two major incentives: tax credit and tax increment financing. The statistical results show that the competition mechanisms operate differently for each of the incentives. The council-manager system constrains the overall adoption and extent of use of business incentives. These results could indicate the relevance of a particular form of government for business incentives.
