Tax cut boosts take home pay as 1982 starts
The first stage of the three part tax cut lowers income tax withholdings by about 6 percent, increasing take home pay by 1 to 2 percent. A married worker earning $500 weekly with four allowances would gain about $5 weekly, while a single person earning $400 weekly would gain about $4.60. Congress also allows shielding up to $1,000 in interest on a new one year savings certificate. The broader plan aims to cut $35 billion in 1982 spending and reduce federal programs, with a second round of cuts and tax changes to follow.
