CPAs Clarify Tax Breaks for Retired Elderly Taxpayers
The Pennsylvania Institute of Certified Public Accountants outlines tax exemptions for Social Security and Railroad Retirement benefits. It notes that most other pension benefits are taxable, but low elderly incomes reduce tax rates. Each person over 65 gets a double personal exemption, up to $750 each, creating a $3,000 exemption for couples. With the low income allowance rising to $1,300, couples may have $4,300 above Social Security without tax. The CPAs advise contacting the IRS for forms for taxable pensions and suggest withholding to avoid a large year-end payment.

Cattle Numbers Down in State Report
The Pennsylvania Crop Reporting Service notes a January 1 cattle inventory of 87 000 head, 4 000 fewer than last year, with fewer cattle being fed and marketed. In Q4 1972, shipments to market fell by 5 000 from 1971. Marketing plans for early 1973 show further declines, while unrelated tax guidance references retirement income credit and dependent exemptions for elderly relatives.
