Revenue Decision Income Tax Of Farmer
The Internal Revenue Department announces
he following:
TREASURY DEPARTMENT,
OFFICE OF INTERNAL REVENUE,
WASHINGTON, MARCH II, 1862
ASH Your letter Of March 8, in regard 10
farmers income returns, is received,
81 reply, that the act Of July, 1862, under
which returns we're made for the annual income
taxes OF 1862 and 1868, required farmers to re-
turn each year the entire crop harvested.
:" But the act of June 80 1864. now in fierce
under which the returns for the special income
tax Of 1868 we're made, required farmers to return
each year the amount Of produce sold.
IL will be found that farmers income return.
for 1864 will include some portion Of the crop OF
1868, and which was taxed as income for that
year There is an apparent injustice in suojecting
the same income to tax in two different years, the
year when raised and the year when sold, but
consideration OF the question will show that it 10
only an apparent one. For, suppose the income
OF farmer to be the same every year, and the
rate OF TAX the same, il Is plain that the amount
Of tax should be also the same. Now the farmer
does not sell the whole crop each year within that
year, and il he is taxed in 1864 on such produce
only as he raised and sold within that year, it Is
clear that he will not pay the full tax due on his
real income. Surprising the yearly crop to be
the same, the farmer will, 10 the last year OF the
tax, RAISE certain amount OF produce on which
he will pay no tax, because unsold, and such pro.
duce will, on an average, be fair Offset against
the produce raised in 1863 but sold in 1864, and
which, consequently, pays two taxes
at is true that 10 particular cases hardship,
will arise, from the fact that the practice Of farm
ers is not uniform in regard to selling or storing
produce. And in other cases farmers will escape
their Just share OF tax for the same reason. Bu
the same occasional inequality will occur under
any general provision Of law, and cannot be avoid
ed.
"The entire amount therefore, Of produce sold
10 1864 must be returned as income by farmers
without regard to any taxes previously paid on an.
such produce.
"Very respectfully,
"E. A Rollins, Deputy Commissioner.
az F. Church, Esq, Revenue Inspector, Tow
