Exemptions Allowed
Under 1924 Income
Tax Law In The U.S..
Normal Tax Rate Under Rev.
enue Act Is 2 Per Cent On
First $4,000 After Exemp-
tons Are Deducted.

The exemptions under the revenue
act of 1924 are $1,000 for single per-
sons and $1,000 for married persons
living together, and heads of families.
In addition $500 credit is allowed for
each person dependent upon and re-
ceiving his chief support from the tax
payer, if such person is under 18
years of age or incapable of self-sup-
port because mentally or physically
defective.
The normal tax rate under the rev.
enue act of 1924 is per cent on the
first $4,000 of net income in excess
of the personal exemptions, credit for
dependents, etc., per cent on the
next $4,000, and six per cent on the
balance. Under the preceding act the
normal tax rate was 4 per cent on the
first $4,000 of net income above the
exemptions and credits, and per
cent on the remaining net income.
The revenue act of 1924 contains a
special provision for reduced taxes
which did not appear in previous laws.
All net income up to $4,000 is consid-
cred learned income" On this a
mount the taxpayer is entitled to a
credit of Is per cent Of the amount of
the tax.
For example, a taxpayer, single
and without dependents, may have re-
ceived in 1924 a salary of $4,000 and
from real estate transaction prof
it of $4,000. His total net income was
$4,000. Without the benefit of the Is
per cent reduction his tax would be
$50. His actual tax is $50. From his
net income of $4,000 he is allowed
personal exemption of $1,000; the
tax of per cent on the first $4,000 is
$50, one-fourth of which, or $40, may
! be deducted.
| For the purpose of computing this
credit, in no case is the earned net in
come considered to be in excess of
$4,000. A taxpayer may have re-
ceived for the year 1924 a net income
from salary of $4,000, but the rs per
cent credit can be applied to only one
half of this amount.
