Tax Revenues Shed Light On Kansas Economy Slump
Kansas tax receipts for February totaled 101.3 million, 2.7 million below forecast, signaling ongoing softness in the state's economy per Revenue Secretary Harley Duncan. He notes sales tax remains the key indicator and March will determine if income tax revenue meets projections, while corporate taxes also underperformed as several other taxes missed estimates. The year’s total remains 18 million above November forecasts, though the consensus panel cut its outlook last spring.
