Economic benefits of construction waste recycling enterprises under tax incentive policies.

To further explore the development of construction waste recycling enterprises and promote the recycling of construction waste resources in China, a system dynamics model of the economic benefits of construction waste recycling enterprises is established using the system dynamics method and taking the tax incentive of the Guangzhou Municipal Government as an example. The economic benefits of construction waste recycling enterprises are analyzed from the perspective of the total cost, total revenue, and total recycling amount. The results of the MATLAB simulation and numerical analysis show that (1) by simulating the effects of different taxes such as value-added tax (VAT), education surcharge, urban construction tax, and enterprise income tax on the economic benefits of construction waste recycling enterprises, it is found that when tax incentives reach 70%, the VAT favorable policies bring the highest gains, followed by enterprise income tax, whereas favorable education surcharge policies and urban construction tax have the least impact on economic benefits. (2) Taking the monetary subsidy of the Guangzhou municipal government as an example, it is estimated that the total revenue of construction waste recycling enterprises will increase by 33.56% annually in 2030. When the new production technology is adopted, the return on investment (ROI) will reach 46.8% in 2030 compared to previous technological improvements. In the simulation scenario, the ROI will be 42.2%, which has a good incentive effect on the cost control of enterprises. (3) Increasing the available power to VAT and corporate income tax can improve the profitability of construction waste recycling enterprises in China; however, tax incentive policy will no longer be the main factor affecting the benefits of enterprises when a certain time is reached. (4) It is suggested that the government improves the relevant tax laws incentive policies, increase tax incentives, and add equipment tax incentive policies, actively change the tax mode, and increase indirect tax models to improve the economic benefits of enterprises. The research results provide a decision-making reference for the government to formulate laws and policies related to the economic benefits of construction waste recycling and promote the development of the construction waste recycling industry, the development of new industries, such as waste recycling and treatment, and the formation of industrial chains, to achieve the strategic goal of sustainable development.
