Federal income tax plan outlines deductions and collection
The bill defines gains from salaries, wages, business, interest, rents, dividends, and life policies before bequest rules. Deductions cover ordinary business expenses, taxes, losses, wear and tear, with limits on restoration. It excludes certain corporate dividends and presidential, judicial, and state official salaries. A at-source collection system makes payors withhold taxes and be liable for payments, with penalties for noncompliance. Underwood defends the progressive approach, aiming to balance tax burdens across income levels. Tax due dates, penalties, and corporate tax timing details are specified, with exemptions for various labor and mutual benefit societies.
