Tax Freedom Day 2018 Is April 19Th Tax Freedom Day 2018 Apr. 2018 is April 19th Erica York Analyst Key Findings • Tax Freedom Day is a significant date for taxpayers and lawmakers because it represents how long Americans as a whole have to work in order to pay the nation’s tax burden. • This year, Tax Freedom Day falls on April 19, 109 days into 2018. • Tax Freedom Day will be three days earlier than it was in 2017, in large part due to the recent federal tax law, the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act, which significantly lowered federal individual and corporate income taxes. • In 2018, Americans will pay $3.4 trillion in federal taxes and $1.8 trillion in state and local taxes, for a total bill of $5.2 trillion, or 30 percent of the nation’s income. • Americans will collectively spend more on taxes in 2018 than they will on food, clothing, and housing combined. • If you include annual federal borrowing, which represents future taxes owed, Tax Freedom Day would occur 17 days later, on May 6th. The Tax Foundation is the nation’s leading independent tax policy research organization.

Tax Freedom Day® is the day when the nation as a whole has earned enough money to pay its total tax bill for the year. Tax Freedom Day takes all federal, state, and local taxes and divides them by the nation’s income. In 2018, Americans will pay $3.39 trillion in federal taxes and $1.80 trillion in state and local taxes, for a total tax bill of $5.19 trillion, or 30 percent of national income. This year, Tax Freedom Day falls on April 19th, 109 days into 2018. What Taxes Do We Pay? This year, Americans again will work the longest to pay federal, state, and local individual income taxes (44 days). Payroll taxes will take 26 days to pay, followed by sales and excise taxes (15 days), corporate income taxes (seven days), and property taxes (11 days). The remaining six days are spent paying estate and inheritance taxes, customs duties, and other taxes.

TA FDAT @TaxFoundation TAX FOUNDATION | 3 When Is Tax Freedom Day If You Include Federal Borrowing? Since 2002, federal expenses have surpassed federal revenues, with the budget deficit exceeding $1 trillion annually from 2009 to 2012. In calendar year 2018, the deficit is expected to increase from $665 billion to $806 billion. If we include this annual federal borrowing, which represents future taxes owed, Tax Freedom Day would occur 17 days later, on May 6th. The latest deficit-inclusive Tax Freedom Day occurred during the final year of World War II, on May 25, 1945. When Is My State’s Tax Freedom Day? The total tax burden borne by residents of different states varies considerably due to differing state tax policies and the progressivity of the federal tax system. This means that states with higher incomes and higher taxes celebrate TFD later: New York (May 14), New Jersey (May 3), and Connecticut (May 3). Residents of Louisiana and Alaska bear the lowest average tax burden in 2018, with Tax Freedom Day having arrived on April 4. Also early were Tennessee, Oklahoma, and Alabama, all on April 5.

The latest Tax Freedom Day was May 1, 2000; in that year, Americans paid 33 percent of their total income in taxes. A century earlier, in 1900, Americans paid only 5.9 percent of their income in taxes, meaning that Tax Freedom Day came on January 22. How Has Tax Freedom Day® Changed over Time?

In 2018,TA FDAT Tax Freedom Day will be three days earlier than last year’s date, April 22nd, 2017.@TaxFoundation This shift is largely due to the recent federal tax law, which significantly lowered federal individual and corporate income taxes. TAX FOUNDATION | 5 Methodology In the denominator, we count every dollar that is officially part of net national income according to the Department of Commerce’s Bureau of Economic Analysis. In the numerator, we count every payment to the government that is officially considered a tax. Taxes at all levels of government – federal, state, and local – are included in the calculation. In calculating Tax Freedom Day for each state, we look at taxes borne by residents of that state, whether paid to the federal government, their own state or local governments, or governments of other states. Where possible, we allocate tax burdens to each taxpayer’s state of residence. Leap days are excluded, to allow comparison across years, and any fraction of a day is rounded up to the next calendar day. For 2018, the methodology for calculating each state’s Tax Freedom Day has been updated significantly. As a result, the date of Tax Freedom Day for each state in 2018 is not strictly comparable to the date of Tax Freedom Day for states in previous years. In addition, calculations of the date of Tax Freedom Day for states in 2018 may not take full account of the secondary effects of the recently passed federal tax bill on state and local tax collections..

CHAPTER G An Analysis of the Graded Property Tax Robert M. Schwab and Amy Rehder Harris Introduction In most jurisdictions, land and improvements are taxed at the same rate. The District of Columbia is no exception to this general rule. Consider two homes in the District, each valued at $100,000. Home A is a modest home on a large lot; suppose the land and structures are each worth $50,000. Home B is a more sub- stantial home on a smaller lot; in this case, suppose the land is valued at $20,000 and the improvements at $80,000. Under current District law, both homes would be taxed at a rate of 0.96 percent on the total value and thus, as Figure 1 shows, the owners of both homes would face property taxes of $960.1 But property can be taxed in many ways. Under a graded, or split-rate, tax, land is taxed more heavily than structures.

  • Latest CBO Report on Incomes and Taxes Shows That the Federal Fiscal System Is Very Progressive
    Latest CBO Report on Incomes and Taxes Shows that the Federal Fiscal System is Very Progressive FISCAL Scott A. Hodge FACT President No. 742 Jan. 2021 Key Findings • President Joe Biden has proposed an ambitious agenda that would make the federal fiscal system more progressive, and the huge budget deficits caused by the numerous COVID-19 relief packages could heighten the call for more tax revenues. What is needed are benchmark facts to guide these debates. • A recent study by the Congressional Budget Office fills this void with data showing that the current fiscal system—both taxes and direct spending benefits—is already very progressive and redistributive. • In 2017, the federal fiscal system lifted the incomes of households in the lowest quintile by 126 percent, in the second quintile by 46 percent, and in the middle quintile by 10 percent while reducing the incomes of households in the highest quintile by 23 percent and in the top 1 percent by 31 percent. • In 2017, households in the lowest quintile received $67.67 in direct federal benefits for every $1 of taxes paid vs. $1.60 for middle-quintile households, while households in the highest quintile received $0.15, and $0.02 for the top 1 percent. • In the aggregate, fiscal policy increased the incomes of households in the bottom three quintiles by more than $1 trillion in 2017 and reduced the incomes of households in the highest quintile by more than $1.7 trillion, The Tax Foundation is the nation’s of which $728 billion came from households in the top 1 percent.

  • How Do Federal Income Tax Rates Work? XXXX
    TAX POLICY CENTER BRIEFING BOOK Key Elements of the U.S. Tax System INDIVIDUAL INCOME TAX How do federal income tax rates work? XXXX Q. How do federal income tax rates work? A. The federal individual income tax has seven tax rates that rise with income. Each rate applies only to income in a specific range (tax bracket). CURRENT INCOME TAX RATES AND BRACKETS The federal individual income tax has seven tax rates ranging from 10 percent to 37 percent (table 1). The rates apply to taxable income—adjusted gross income minus either the standard deduction or allowable itemized deductions. Income up to the standard deduction (or itemized deductions) is thus taxed at a zero rate. Federal income tax rates are progressive: As taxable income increases, it is taxed at higher rates. Different tax rates are levied on income in different ranges (or brackets) depending on the taxpayer’s filing status. In TAX POLICY CENTER BRIEFING BOOK Key Elements of the U.S. Tax System INDIVIDUAL INCOME TAX How do federal income tax rates work? XXXX 2020 the top tax rate (37 percent) applies to taxable income over $518,400 for single filers and over $622,050 for married couples filing jointly. Additional tax schedules and rates apply to taxpayers who file as heads of household and to married individuals filing separate returns. A separate schedule of tax rates applies to capital gains and dividends. Tax brackets are adjusted annually for inflation. BASICS OF PROGRESSIVE INCOME TAXATION Each tax rate applies only to income in a specific tax bracket. Thus, if a taxpayer earns enough to reach a new bracket with a higher tax rate, his or her total income is not taxed at that rate, just the income in that bracket.

  • Taxes and New York's Fiscal Crisis
    TAXES AND NEW YORK’S FISCAL CRISIS: EVALUATING REVENUE PROPOSALS TO CLOSE THE STATE’S BUDGET GAP By Jared Walczak PRINCIPLE D INSIGHTFU L ENGAGED TAX FOUNDATION | 1 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY At first glance, New York faces projected budget shortfalls as arresting as the New York City skyline, and to meet the challenge, some have proposed taxes that would rival that skyline for staggering height. The challenge confronting policymakers is real, though perhaps not as dire as once feared. Its intensity depends on the pace of recovery, the availability of additional federal aid, and the policy choices state officials make in a state that has borne the brunt of the pandemic. State lawmakers will be called upon to navigate between two forbidding shoals, finding a way to meet the state’s revenue needs from a currently diminished tax base without implementing policies that make those economic losses permanent. It is no easy task, and there are no pat answers. In this publication, we examine the scope of the losses New York confronts and the prospects for—and potential extent of—federal relief in helping alleviate the state’s fiscal crisis. Then, situated in the context of New York’s past efforts to improve its tax competitiveness, and the importance of maintaining the Empire State’s attraction in an increasingly mobile economy, we review many of the proposals for raising additional revenue. Some hold promise, others present economic perils, and a few are legal quagmires. Recent data from the New York Department of Taxation and Finance suggest four-year tax revenue losses of $20.9 billion in real terms, about a 6.7 percent inflation-adjusted decline across the period, and a challenge above what the figures would indicate for a state that was struggling to balance its budgets even before the COVID-19 pandemic.

  • The Supercharged IPO (Vanderbilt Law Review, Forthcoming, 2014)
    The Supercharged IPO (Vanderbilt Law Review, forthcoming, 2014) Victor Fleischer University of Colorado School of Law and Nancy Staudt USC Gould School of Law Center in Law, Economics and Organization Research Papers Series No. C13-6 Legal Studies Research Paper Series No. 13-6 March 26, 2013 VOLUME FEBRUARY 2013 NO. THE SUPERCHARGED IPO By Victor Fleischer* Nancy Staudt** A new innovation on the IPO landscape has emerged in the last two decades, allowing owner-founders to extract billions of dollars from newly-public companies. These IPOs—labeled supercharged IPOs—have been the subject of widespread debate and controversy: lawyers, financial experts, journalists, and Members of Congress have all weighed in on the topic. Some have argued that supercharged IPOs are a “brilliant, just brilliant,” while others have argued they are “underhanded” and “bizarre.” In this article, we explore the supercharged IPO and explain how and why this new deal structure differs from the more traditional IPO. We then outline various theories of financial innovation and note that the extant literature provides useful explanations for why supercharged IPOs emerged and spread so quickly across industries and geographic areas. The literature also provides support for both legitimate and opportunistic uses of the supercharged IPO. With the help of a large-N quantitative study—the first of its kind—we investigate the adoption and diffusion of this new innovation. We find that the reason parties have begun to supercharge their IPO is not linked to a desire to steal from naïve investors, but rather for tax planning purposes. Supercharged IPOs enable both owner- founders and public investors to save substantial amounts of money in federal and state taxes.

  • The Labor Incidence of Capital Taxation: New Evidence from the Retail Sales Taxation of Manufacturing Machinery and Equipment
    National Tax Journal, June 2017, 70 (2), 257–294 https://doi.org/10.17310/ntj.2017.2.02 THE LABOR INCIDENCE OF CAPITAL TAXATION: NEW EVIDENCE FROM THE RETAIL SALES TAXATION OF MANUFACTURING MACHINERY AND EQUIPMENT John L. Mikesell and Justin M. Ross This paper seeks to produce evidence on the labor incidence of the taxation of ma- chinery and equipment purchases by manufacturers under the state general sales tax. For the identification strategy, we exploit tax policy discontinuities among adjacent counties along state borders. The main results demonstrate that, on aver- age, there are no significant losses or gains to manufacturing labor from adjusting this tax. The main results are robust to specifications of controls and state specific time trends. The identification strategy also passes a falsification test where counties are differenced from a randomly selected county. Keywords: sales tax, capital income tax, tax incidence JEL Codes: H25, H71 1. INTRODUCTION here has long been substantial interest in the labor incidence of business tax instru- Tments, both from economists in the study of economic incidence of partial factor taxes and from policy makers who worry these taxes are “job killers.” In the case of taxes on the formation of capital inputs, previous literature has mostly been limited to the study of corporate income taxes (Gravelle, 2013).1 This literature follows in the tradition of Harberger (1962) heavily cited general equilibrium model, “The Incidence 1 See a recent symposium review of the incidence of CIT in the March 2013 issue of the National Tax Journal. For distributional analyses of proposed tax reforms, both the Joint Committee on Taxation (2013) and the Congressional Budget Office assume that 25 percent of the CIT burden will fall upon labor, whereas the Department of Treasury on average allocates about 18 percent of the burden to labor.

  • The Impact of Trade and Tariffs on the United States FISCAL FACT Erica York No
    The Impact of Trade and Tariffs on the United States FISCAL FACT Erica York No. 595 Analyst June 2018 Key Findings • Trade barriers such as tariffs raise prices and reduce available quantities of goods and services for U.S. businesses and consumers, which results in lower income, reduced employment, and lower economic output. • Measures of trade flows, such as the trade balance, are accounting identities and should not be misunderstood to be indicators of economic health. Production and exchange – regardless of the balance on the current account – generate wealth. • Since the end of World War II, the world has largely moved away from protectionist trade policies toward a rules-based, open trading system. Post-war trade liberalization has led to widespread benefits, including higher income levels, lower prices, and greater consumer choice. • Openness to trade and investment has substantially contributed to U.S. growth, but the U.S. still maintains duties against several categories of goods. The highest tariffs are concentrated on agriculture, textiles, and footwear. • The Trump administration has enacted tariffs on imported solar panels, washing machines, steel, and aluminum, plans to impose tariffs on Chinese imports, and is investigating further tariffs on Chinese imports and The Tax Foundation is the nation’s automobile imports. leading independent tax policy research organization.

  • The Drawbacks of State Taxes on Financial Transactions
    The Drawbacks of State Taxes on Financial Transactions FISCAL Ulrik Boesen FACT Senior Policy Analyst, Excise Taxes No. 738 Jan. 2021 Key Findings: • A financial transaction tax (FTT) would raise transaction costs, which would result in a lower trading volume, lower liquidity, potentially increased volatility, and lower price of assets. Lower volume limits revenue potential, lower liquidity harms traders’ ability to buy and sell shares at the best price level, and increased volatility can increase risks. • An FTT might be targeted at limiting high frequency trading or speculative short-term investment However, it is highly unlikely that an FTT would only discourage “undesired” trading and would almost certainly result in a host of unintended consequences. The tax code is, moreover, not an appropriate policy tool to limit certain financial transactions. • Estimating revenue from a state-level FTT is difficult given the unknown reaction by the financial markets and high risk of tax avoidance. • States can either tax financial transactions by taxing data processing or stock exchanges, or tax the trader buying and selling financial products. States can either levy the tax at a flat rate or by value (ad valorem). • An FTT results in a version of tax pyramiding as the same instrument is traded multiple times, meaning that even at low rates, an FTT would add a significant tax burden. The Tax Foundation is the nation’s leading independent tax policy research organization. Since 1937, • If several states implement FTTs, the transfer of a security being taxed our research, analysis, and experts have informed smarter tax policy multiple times could emerge.
