Senate panel backs pay as you go for large corporations
The Senate Finance Committee tentatively approves a pay as you go system requiring about half of a corporation’s taxes to be paid in the year the income is earned. The provision would apply to firms with estimated liabilities above 100000, shrinking the eligible group from 35000 to about 20000 of 425000 corporations. By 1959 half of taxes would be paid in installments during the earning year.
