Opinion on Taxation of Bank Capital Stock Valuation
Attorney General Honan issues guidance to the State Board of Tax Commissioners on valuing bank capital stock for taxation. The board should first assess total property reported as capital stock surplus fund or undivided profits, then deduct to find real estate value and remaining stock value. If banks own but do not report real estate as capital stock, only reportable capital items are taxed, with real estate assessed separately.
