Governor Groesbeck advocates replacing the present corporation tax with an income tax applying to both corporate and personal incomes. New York rates would yield about 15 million from individuals and vary for corporations. a personal rate structure includes 1 percent under 10,000, 2 percent up to 50,000, and 6 percent above 50,000 with a 2,000 marriage exemption. The plan could reduce real estate taxes and fund state improvements, while requiring tax returns and defining deductions for business and living expenses. The discussion covers exemptions, credits, filing, and payment options under the 1921 revenue act, plus notes on deductions for stores, professionals, farmers, and disallowed personal living expenses.
