INCOME TAX WORK COSTLY
Collection for Each Fiscal Year Have
Cost $1.30 for Each SIOO Paid
to Government.
To handle efficiently the collection
of income taxes among one hundred
million people is a problem that can
not be worked out overnight, but now
after nine years a comparatively
smooth-running, well-organized ma
chine lias been developed.
The internal revenue bureau in
Washington annually receives one and
a quarter million income tax returns.
This figure does not include the. Re
turns filed by those whose incomes are
less than $5,000. To audit and carry
on the work of this department of the
bureau, 7,275 persons were employed
in Washington during the last fiscal
year.
The cost of administering the inter
nal revenue laws was $41,577,374.49.
Total receipts were $3,197,451,083.
Computing on this basis the cost of
collection was $1.30 for each SIOO col
lected, compared with 87 cents for the
preceding year. The difference in
ative cost of collection is due mainpF
to the large reduction in revenues, the
repeal of some of the war profits
taxes, and the increase in individual
exemption.—Saturday Evening Post.
