STATISTICS OF INCOME FOR 1931
TREASURY DEPARTMENT,
OFFICE OF COMMISSIONER OF INTERNAL REVENUE,

Washington, D.C., October 18, 1933.
SIR: In accordance with the provisions contained in the Revenue
Act of 1916 and subsequent Acts for the publication annually of statistics with respect to the operation of the income, war-profits, and
excess-profits tax laws, I have the honor >?to transmit herewith a report
entitled "Statistics of Income for 1931, prepared from the incometax returns of individuals and corporations for that year filed during
1932, with a historical presentation of the income and tax liability
reported by; individuals and corporations since the inception of the
present period of income taxation under the sixteenth amendment
to the Constitution. The report also contains tabulations of data
from estate-tax returns filed during 1932, irrespective of the date of
death of the decedent, and a brief historical summary.
GENERAL EXPLANATIONS
Returns tabulated.—In general, the returns included in this report
are for the calendar year 1931, filed under the provisions of the
Revenue Act of 1928. However, a considerable number of corporation returns and a negligible number of individual returns are for a
fiscal year other than the calendar year. Thus there are included with
the returns for the calendar year 1931, returns with fiscal year ending
within the period July 1, 1931, to June 30, 1932, and fractional (part
year) returns for which the greater part of the period falls in 1931.
Returns with income falling in the calendar year 1932 are filed under
the provisions of the Revenue Act of 1932 as well as that of 1928.
The general tables therefore include calendar, fiscal, and fractional (part year) returns, except when otherwise specified. The
general tables for corporations include all returns, those showing net
income as well as those showing no net income.
The general tables for individuals include only returns showing
net income. The data tabulated from returns with no net income
are shown on pages 19, 125. Prior to 1928 no tabulations were made
from returns with no net income. The Revenue Act of 1921 and
subsequent acts provide that a return be filed, irrespective of the
amount of net income (or deficit), by every individual, if single or
if married and not living with husband or wife, having a gross income
of $5,000 and over, and every married couple living together having
an aggregate gross income of $5,000 and over. Moreover, returns
showing net income below the minimum provided by the revenue
acts are frequently filed by married couples who elect to file separate
returns as provided by law; also as part year returns filed in the case
of the death of the taxpayer and covering the income period to the
date of death, and in cases where the taxpayer elects to change the
accounting period.

STATISTICS OF INCOME

The statistics contained in this report are based on the taxpayers'
returns as filed, unaudited except for a preliminary examination to
insure proper execution of the returns, and include amended returns
showing net income of $100,000 and over, but do not include amended
returns with net income under $100,000. Income-tax returns filed
by individuals having net income of $5,000 and over and individual
returns of net income under $5,000 which display income characteristics similar to those usually found in returns of net income of $5,000
and over, such as varied or unusual sources of income or large total
income, and all returns filed by corporations, pass through the statistical section, and the data are tabulated from each of these returns.
The statistics applying to individual returns with net income under
$5,000, except those specified above (which numbered approximately
133,000), represent estimates based on samples of such returns.
Averages for the various items from a sample for each State are
applied to the total number of returns of the class which they represent to secure estimates for the particular State. The samples are
selected from both forms on which individual incomes are reported—
form 1040 for net income from salaries or wages of more than $5,000,
or income regardless of amount from business, profession, rents, or
sale of property, and form 1040-A for net income of not more than
$5,000, derived chiefly from salaries and wages. All 1040 returns are
sent to Washington for audit, and those with net income under $5,000
are sampled by the statistical section. The 1040-A returns are
audited in the collection districts, and samples only are sent to
Washington.
The sample for 1931 included approximately 214,000 returns on
form 1040, and 200,000 on form 1040-A, representing for each collection district not less than 10 percent of the number of each form
of return with net income under $5,000, distributed approximately
equally between taxable and nontaxable returns. The specified
minimum for the 1040 returns was 4,000 wherever the number filed
exceeded that figure, and for 1040-A's the minimum was 2,000 wherever
the number filed exceeded that figure. When the number of returns
filed in any collection district in this class was less than the respective
minima the entire number filed was tabulated.
For 1929 and subsequent years the number of returns with net
income under $5,000 is based in part on Income Tax Unit reports and
in part on reports of collectors; for years prior to 1929 it is based
on collectors' reports. (See 1929 Statistics of Income, p. 2.)
Certain basic tables heretofore included in the Statistics of Income
have been omitted. However, the data, if available, may be obtained
from the Bureau of Internal Revenue upon request. In certain text
and basic tables the amounts in dollars are expressed in thousands.
In every case where this rounding occurs it is clearly indicated in the
subtitle or in a column heading of the table.
General definitions.—Throughout this report "net income" represents the amount of gross income, as defined in the revenue act
effective for the year for which the income is returned, in excess of the
deductions claimed by the taxpayer under the provisions of the
respective acts, and "deficit" means excess of deductions over gross
income. The net income of individuals includes capital net gain
from sale of assets held more than 2 years. Credits allowed individuals, such as personal exemption, credit for dependents, net loss




STATISTICS OF INCOME

d

for prior year, and net loss from the sale of capital assets held more
than 2 years which is reported for tax credit, are not included in
deductions; neither is the special credit of $3,000 for domestic corporations having net income of $25,000 or less nor net loss for prior year
included in deductions in arriving at net income of corporations.
Gross income and deductions shown in the corporation tables
correspond to the total income and total deductions reported on the
face of the return plus the cost of goods sold.
The amount of income-tax liability returned for 1931, shown in the
tabulations in this volume, is not entirely comparable with the
amount of taxes collected during the calendar year 1932. Several
factors are responsible for this discrepancy, among which are the
following:
1. The amount of tax originally reported on the returns does not
always represent precisely the amount of tax paid, for the reason that
an adjustment may be made after the data have been taken from the
original returns for the Statistics of Income. These adjustments
may result in additional assessments, thereby increasing the tax
liability, or in certificates of overassessments, thereby decreasing the
tax liability. An amended return has the same effect as an adjustment.
2. Income and profits taxes paid to foreign governments or possessions of the United States are deductible from income taxes payable
to the United States as limited by section 131 (b) of the Revenue
Act of 1928 with respect to income returned for 1930 and 1931 and
as limited by section 131 (b) of the Revenue Act of 1932 with respect
to income for 1932. The amount of tax taken as credit under this
provision of law has not been deducted from the amount of tax liability shown in the tabulations. The aggregate amount of income
and profits taxes paid to foreign governments or possessions of the
United States taken as a credit by corporations is, however, shown
on page 26. Similar figures for individual returns are available
only for the years 1925 to 1930, inclusive, and appear on page 9 of
the Statistics of Income for 1930. Individual income taxes paid at
the source on tax-free covenant bonds are deductible from income
taxes payable by individuals but are not deducted in the income-tax
liability of individual returns shown herein. However, all collections
representing income tax paid at source on tax-free covenant bonds
are classified with the corporation income-tax collections, due to the
tax being assessed against the debtor corporations notwithstanding
the fact that it is paid on behalf of individual holders of bonds.
3. The amount of income taxes in fiscal year returns included in
this tabulation may not represent taxes collected during 1932 on such
returns. Fiscal year returns are required to be filed on or before the
15th day of the third month after the end of the fiscal year, and payment as in the case of calendar year returns, is required at the time
the return is filed, or in four quarterly installments. The first of the
quarterly installments is due when the return is filed. Thus, during
the calendar year 1932, collections were made of part or all of the
taxes in returns for fiscal years ended from January 31, 1931 (the last
quarterly installment payment on which was due on or before Jan. 15,
1932), to September 30, 1932 (the filing of returns and the full payment or first installment payment on which was due on or before
Dec. 15, 1932), whereas, as previously indicated, there are excluded
from these statistics the returns for fiscal years ending prior to July
1, 1931, and subsequent to June 30, 1932.

STATISTICS OF INCOME

4. Delays in payment due to financial embarrassment, death,
liquidation of business, or any other cause, result in collections of
taxes after the close of the year in which such taxes are due, and the
classification of such collections as "back taxes" because made in a
subsequent year. Certain amounts are uncollectible, due likewise to
the above causes.
5. Current collections include such interest and penalty items as
are received during the year in connection with delinquent payments
on returns for 1931.
Industrial classification.—The industrial classification is based
on the predominant business of nonaffiliated corporations or of groups
of affiliated corporations filing a single return. The industrial groups,
therefore, do not contain solely corporations engaged exclusively in
the industries in which they are classified, due to the diversified
industrial activities of many corporations and especially to affiliated
corporations filing consolidated returns, which latter include the income and deductions of the subsidiary or affiliated corporations. If
such affiliated corporations could be classified independently of the
consolidated returns, many would fall in industrial divisions other
than the ones in which they are included.
Geographic distribution.—The data, although tabulated by returns
filed in each State, do not represent what may be called the geographic
distribution of income, there being no way of ascertaining from the
income-tax returns the amount of income originating in the respective
States or the amount of tax paid on that basis, as income reported
by an individual or corporation in one State may have been derived
from sources in other States. An individual files his income-tax
return in the collection district in which his legal residence or principal
place of business is located, and a corporation files its income-tax
return in the collection district in which its principal place of business
or the principal office or agency is situated, excepting closely affiliated
concerns filing a consolidated return. In the latter case the consolidated return is frequently filed in a State other than the State in
which the principal place of business or principal office or agency of
the subsidiaries is located.
INDIVIDUAL INCOME-TAX RETURNS

The number of returns of individuals for 1931 was 3,225,924, of
which 1,525,546 were taxable and 1,700,378 nontaxable. The aggregate net income was $13,604,996,128; the net income on taxable
returns was $9,297,017,593, on which the tax liability was $246,127,277. As compared with the returns for the previous year, the total
number for 1931 decreased by 481,585, or 12.99 percent. The average net income for 1931 was $4,217.40 for all returns and $6,094.22 for
taxable returns, the average amount of tax liability was $76.30 for all
returns and $161.34 for taxable returns, and the average tax rate
was 1.81 percent for all returns and 2.65 percent for taxable returns.
For the preceding year the average net income was $4,887.01 for all
returns and $6,719.81 for taxable returns, the average tax liability
was $128.58 for all returns, and $233.96 for taxable returns, and the
average tax rate was 2.63 percent for all returns and 3.48 percent for
taxable returns. The ratio of the number of returns filed to the
total population (Census Bureau estimate of population as of July 1,
1931) is 2.59 percent, as compared with a corresponding ratio for the
preceding year of 3.01 percent.

Excludes separate returns of community property income of husband and wife in which the net income
is under $5,000 and joint returns of husband and wife which show net income under $10,000. In tabulating
joint returns of community property, net income of $10,000 and over, the data are divided to represent the
separate returns of husband and wife, the net income class for each of the separate returns being one half
of the combined net income of the joint return. Returns of community property income not included under
this heading are classified either under joint returns of husbands and wives, etc., or wives filing separate
returns from husbands.

CAPITAL N E T GAINS AND LOSSES (INDIVIDUAL RETURNS)

The special provisions in the revenue acts for capital net gains
and losses from the sale of assets held more than 2 years apply, for
capital net gain, to sales after December 31, 1921, and for capital
net losses, to sales after December 31, 1923.
Under the Revenue Act of 1921 and subsequent acts, capital net
gains as defined in the revenue acts from the sale of assets held more
than 2 years may, at the option of the taxpayer, be reported separately
and taxed at \2}{ percent in lieu of the normal tax and surtax rates
otherwise applicable. The income tax of the individual in such
cases is the sum of 12% percent of the capital net gains plus the
tax on the net income from other sources, termed " ordinary net
income/ 7 computed according to the provisions of the respective
revenue acts.
The capital net gains and the tax at 12}£ percent of such gains
reported for 1922 and following years appear on pages 38 and 42-44,
respectively, of this report. In order that the amounts shown as "net
income" and "total income" in the Statistics of Income for 1922
and subsequent years be made comparable with earlier years, it is
necessary that "net income" and "total income" be increased by
the amount of such gains. These adjustments have been made in the
Statistics of Income for these years.
Under the Revenue Act of 1924 and subsequent acts the taxpayer
must report his capital net loss, as defined in the respective acts,
from the sale of assets held more than 2 years by one of two methods
whichever will produce the larger tax. These two methods are (1)
the tax on the net income from other sources, termed "ordinary net
income", computed according to the provisions of the respective
revenue acts, less 12% percent of the capital net loss, and (2) the
tax on the net income computed without regard for the special
provisions for capital net losses.
The tax credit of 12K percent on capital net losses for 1924 and
following years appears on page 38. Under the Revenue Acts of




8

STATISTICS OF INCOME

1918 and 1921 such losses are deducted in arriving at net income.
Under the Revenue Acts of 1916 and 1917 losses sustained in transactions entered into for profit but not connected with business or
trade are deductible to the extent of the aggregate income from such
transactions. In order that the amounts shown as "net income"
and " deductions " in the Statistics of Income for 1924 and subsequent
years be made comparable with the amounts shown in Statistics of
Income for 1918 to 1923, inclusive, it is necessary that "net income"
be reduced by, and "deductions" be increased by, the amount of
such losses. These adjustments have not been^ made in the "net
income" and "deductions" shown in the Statistics of Income for
these years.
NET LOSS FOR PRIOR YEAR (INDIVIDUAL RETURNS)

The net loss during a given • taxable year in a trade or business
regularly carried on by the taxpayer, as specifically defined in the
Revenue Acts of 1921 to 1928, inclusive, is allowed as a deduction in
computing the net income of the taxpayer for the succeeding taxable
year, and if such net loss exceeds the net income for the succeeding
year the amount of such excess is to be allowed in the next succeeding
year. Moreover, if such net loss is in excess of the ordinary net income
before deduction of this loss, and the taxpayer has a capital net gain,
the amount of such excess shall next be applied against the capital
net gain for such year, and if this excess is larger than the capital net
gain for such year, the balance is similarly allowed as a deduction in
computing the ordinary net income and the capital net gain the next
succeeding taxable year. See section 117 of the Revenue Act of 1928.
Such net losses, being of prior year origin, are not included in the
current year deductions in arriving at the net income for the various
years shown in this volume. Net loss for prior year reported in the
individual income-tax returns for the years 1922 to 1931, inclusive,
and taken as a deduction in computing ordinary net income and
capital net gain is given below:

CREDIT OF 25 PERCENT OF /TAX ON EARNED NET INCOME (INDIVIDUAL
RETURNS)

The credit of 25 percent of the tax on earned net income applies
to the tax on the first $5,000 of net income and, if specifically earned,
to the tax on an amount not exceeding $10,000 under the Revenue
Act of 1924, applicable to returns for 1924, and to an amount not
exceeding $20,000 under the Revenue Act of 1926, applicable to
returns for 1925 to 1927, and to an amount not exceeding $30,000
under the Revenue Act of 1928, applicable to returns for 1928 to 1931,

SOURCES OF INCOME AND DEDUCTIONS (INDIVIDUAL RETURNS)

Immediately following is shown a distribution by sources of the
income and deductions reported by individuals. The figures for the
various sources are aggregates of net amounts of income, and represent the amounts by which the gross income exceeds the deductions
allowed for each specific source, as provided in the schedules of the
return. (See form 1040, p. 214.) Net losses reported in the schedules are transferred in tabulation to deductions, which7 also include
amounts reported on the return under "Deductions ' from total
income.
Income from partnerships and fiduciaries does not include amounts
received through these entities from capital net gain from sale of
assets held more than 2 years, dividends on stock of domestic corporations, or taxable interest on obligations of the United States, since
these items are reported under their respective classifications.
Amounts shown in earlier reports as "Interest and other income"
are segregated into "Interest other than tax-exempt" and "Other
income."

FREQUENCY DISTRIBUTION BY SIZE OF SPECIFIC ITEMS OF INCOME AND DEDUCTIONS, RETURNS OF NET INCOME OF $5,000 AND OVER (INDIVIDUAL RETURNS)

In the general tables for individual returns, data are classified
according to the net income of the individual. Within net income
classes, returns may show widely varying amounts of income and
deductions from specific sources. In the following table specific
items of income and deductions reported on returns of net income
of $5,000 and over are classified according to the size.
Sources of income not included in this tabulation are partnership,
fiduciary, and interest and other income. The total income received
through partnerships and fiduciaries may not be included in items
5 and 6, form 1040, provided for such income, since the instructions
relative to those items provide:
Enter as item 5 your share (whether received or not) of the profits of a partnership, and as item 6 income from an estate or trust, except that the share of (a)
capital net gain or loss computed as provided in instruction 8a shall be reported
in schedule D, (6) taxable interest on obligations of the United States shall be
included in schedule E, and (c) profits which consisted of dividends on stock of
domestic corporations shall be included in item 10, on the return.

STATISTICS OF INCOME

NET PROFIT FROM BUSINESS, RETURNS OF NET INCOME OF $5,000 AND OVER, BY
MAJOR INDUSTRIAL GROUPS (INDIVIDUAL RETURNS)

The net profit from business (other than from partnerships) reported in returns, form 1040, of net income of $5,000 and over is
classified below according to the nature of the business. These data
represent only such amounts reported by individuals as were derived
from business operations conducted as sole proprietors, and do not
necessarily indicate the principal occupation of or the total income
reported by the individual making the return. Business profits
reported on returns, form 1040, showing net income of less than
$5,000 are not included. The sample of these returns on which the
Statistics of Income estimates are based is not considered sufficiently

STATISTICS OF INCOME

TAXES PAID OTHER THAN FEDERAL INCOME TAX AND INTEREST PAID,
RETURNS OF NET INCOME OF $5,000 AND OVER (INDIVIDUAL RETURNS)

In basic tables 8 and 8A, pages 73-74,, taxes paid other than
Federal income tax or that amount of the income and profits taxes
paid foreign countries or possessions of the United States allowed as
a deduction, and interest paid as reported in the returns of net
income of $5,000 and over, are distributed by States and Territories
and by net income classes, respectively. The amounts are shown
separately as reported in business deductions in Schedule A, Income
from Business or Profession, and in deductions from total income.
Taxes paid
other than Federal income tax are reported under " Deductions7' in the individual income-tax return (item 14 on form 1040)
in accordance with the following instructions:
Enter as item 14 personal taxes and taxes paid on property not used in your
business or profession, not including those assessed against local benefits of a
kind tending to increase the value of the property assessed. Do not include
Federal income taxes, taxes imposed upon your interest as shareholder of a corporation which are paid by the corporation without reimbursement from you, nor
income taxes claimed as a credit in item 54.

Taxes paid on business property or for carrying on business as reported under business deductions in item 12, Schedule A, Income
from Business or Profession, do not include Federal income taxes,
taxes assessed against local benefits of a kind tending to increase the
value of property, nor taxes imposed upon sales by manufacturers.
Amounts tabulated do not include taxes reported on Form 1040-F,
Schedule of Farm Income and Expenses.
Interest paid is reported under " Deductions" in the individual
income-tax returns (item 13, form 1040) in accordance with the
following instructions:
Enter as item 13 interest paid on personal indebtedness as distinguished from
business indebtedness (which should be deducted under schedules A or B).
Do not include interest on indebtedness incurred to purchase or carry obligations
or securities, the interest upon which is wholly exempt from taxation.

Interest paid on business indebtedness to others is reported under
business deductions in item 11, Schedule A, Income from Business
or Profession, in accordance with the following instructions:
Enter on line 11, interest on business indebtedness. Do not include interest
to yourself on capital invested in or advanced to the business.

The taxes paid, other than Federal income tax and certain income
taxes paid foreign countries, and interest paid, reported on returns
of net income under $5,000, are not included, as the sample of the
returns is not considered sufficiently comprehensive to determine
these items accurately.
Below are shown, for the years for which the data are available,
the aggregates of taxes paid other than Federal income-tax and
certain income taxes paid foreign countries, and the interest paid as
reported on returns of net income of $5,000 and over:

WHOLLY AND PARTIALLY T A X - E X E M P T OBLIGATIONS, RETURNS OF N E T INCOME
OF $5,000 AND OVER (INDIVIDUAL R E T U R N S )

Wholly tax-exempt obligations include those the interest on which
is wholly exempt from the normal income tax and the surtax of the
Federal Government. Partially tax-exempt obligations are those
the interest on which is exempt from the normal tax of the Federal
Government and in certain issues the interest on the principal up to
$5,000 is exempt from surtax. During the calendar year 1931 the
wholly tax-exempt obligations of the Federal Government on which
interest was paid included bonds issued on or before September 1,
1917, First Liberty 3% percent bonds, Treasury certificates of indebtedness, and Treasury bills; and the partially tax-exempt obligations
of the Federal Government were Liberty 4 and 04 percent bonds,
Treasury notes, and all Treasury bonds.
The following tabulation shows the wholly and partially tax-exempt obligations owned and interest received therefrom, segregated
by nature of obligation and by net income classes, reported in returns
of net income of $5,000 and over.
The amount of interest reported is the total amount received or
accrued. Since bond holdings are subject to variation during the
year, the amount of bonds reported may include bonds for which
no interest was received or accrued, and, vice versa, the interest
reported may include interest on bonds which are not included? in
the amount of bonds reported.

As noted on page 1, the general tables for individual returns in
the Statistics of Income do not include data for returns which show no
net income. Such returns are filed in accordance with the statutory
requirements that every individual with gross income of $5,000 and
over, irrespective of the amount of net income or deficit, file an
income-tax return. Tabulations prepared from these returns by
deficit classes and by sources of income and deductions are shown
below. The distribution of the returns by States and Territories
and more detailed tabulation of the sources of income and deductions
by net deficit classes are shown in basic tables 10 and 11, page 125.

PARTNERSHIP RETURNS OF INCOME

Partnership returns, except for the war excess-profits tax of 1917,
are not subject to direct assessments—the income being reported by the
individual copartners according to their shares whether distributed or
not. A special return of information concerning income is, however,
required from partnerships on form 1065.

CORPORATION INCOME-TAX RETURNS

The number of income-tax returns filed by corporations for 1931
was 516,404, as against 518,736 for 1930. Of the total number of
returns for 1931, 175,898 showed net income, 283,806 no net income,
and 56,700 no income data. The returns filed included 8,495 consolidated returns for groups of affiliated corporations, of which 2,698
showed net income and 5,797 showed no net income. The aggregate
net income of all returns showing net income was $3,683,367,774 and
the tax liability, $398,993,703. The aggregate net income of consolidated returns of affiliated corporations was $1,846,305,490 and
the tax liability, $216,547,370.
Separate tabulations for fiscal-year returns (not ending December)
and for fractional (part) year returns, shown on pages 36-37, make
it possible to segregate data for calendar year accounting periods
and for other accounting periods. In addition, separate tabulations
of data from consolidated returns are shown on pages 34-35,
from which the significance of this form of return can be appraised.
Consolidated returns represent the composite return of affiliated
corporations filing under the provisions of the income-tax law, which
authorize such groups of corporations to submit a consolidated
income-tax return of the combined income, deductions, and tax for
the affiliated concerns.
DISTRIBUTION BY MAJOR INDUSTRIAL GROUPS OF NUMBER OF RETURNS,
INCOME, AND TAX (CORPORATION RETURNS)

The table immediately following shows the returns of corporations
distributed by major industrial groups and segregated according to
"Returns showing net income," "Returns showing no net income/'
and "Returns showing no income data—inactive corporations."
Basic table 12 (pp. 128-129) shows the returns distributed by States

and Territories and likewise by those with net income, no net income,
and no income data (inactive corporations).
In analyzing the data compiled from returns classified under
" Finance—banking,
insurance, real estate, stock and bond brokers,
etc./ 7 allowance should be made for the two special deductions from
gross income permitted life insurance companies. These special
deductions totaling $683,000,000 represent (1) 4 percent of the mean
of the reserve funds and (2) 2 percent of the reserve held for deferred
dividends. (See pars. (2) and (4) of subdivision (a) of sec. 203 of
the Revenue Act of 1928 and T.D. 4231.) In basic table 13
(pp. 130-141) the special deductions for life insurance companies are
included in "Miscellaneous deductions "under " Statutory deductions."

STATISTICS OF INCOME
NET LOSS FOR PRIOR YEAR (CORPORATION RETURNS)

The net loss during a given taxable year in a trade or business
regularly carried on by the taxpayer, as specifically defined in the
Kevenue Acts of 1921 to 1928, inclusive, is allowed as a deduction in
computing the net income of the taxpayer for the two succeeding
taxable years. If such net loss is in excess of the net income (computed without such deduction), for that year, the amount of the
excess may be carried over and allowed as a deduction in computing
the net income for the next succeeding taxable year. Under the
Revenue Act of 1932 net losses for 1931 only are allowed as deductions in computing net income of the taxpayer for 1932.
The excess net losses being of prior origin are not included in the
tabulated current year deductions in arriving at the tabulated net
income figure. Only the reported "Net loss for prior year," which
is taken as a deduction, is tabulated; the excess loss carried to subsequent years is not tabulated.
"Net loss for prior year" reported and effective as a deduction in
determining net income in the corporation returns for 1922 to 1931,
inclusive, is given below:

AMOUNT OF NET INCOME EXEMPT FROM AND SUBJECT TO TAX (CORPORATION
RETURNS)

Under the Revenue Act of 1928, corporation net income subject to
tax is reduced by a credit of $3,000 allowed corporations with net
income of $25,000 or less. For corporations with net income in
excess of $25,000 but not in excess of $25,360, the method of computing the tax, as provided for in the revenue act, affords a variable
amount of credit, but in every case less than $3,000. Under the
Revenue Act of 1932 no such credit is allowed. A deduction for
"Net loss for prior year" from net income for the current year is
permitted. The net income reported, also the net income not subject to and the amount subject to tax in corporation returns for 1931,
are shown below:

The amounts of cash and stock dividends paid on the capital stock
of domestic corporations other than life insurance companies, as
reported in the corporation income tax returns for 1931, are cash
dividends, $6,151,082,782, and stock dividends, $163,530,417. These

COMPILED RECEIPTS AND STATUTORY DEDUCTIONS (CORPORATION RETURNS)

In the table on page 28 there appears a summary of the analysis of
compiled receipts and statutory deductions for 459,704 returns of
active corporations, classified by corporations submitting and not
submitting balance sheets. The same analysis in aggregate for all
active corporations without segregation as to corporations submitting
and not submitting balance sheets, is presented in basic table 13
(pp. 130-141), by major industrial groups, by returns showing net
income and no net income.
Compiled receipts consist of reported taxable income [gross sales,
gross profits other than amounts tabulated as gross sales, interest
received, rents received, profits from sale of capital assets (real estate,
stocks,
bonds, etc.), and other items of taxable income grouped as
11
Miscellaneous receipts"] and nontaxable income items ofj major
importance (dividends received on capital stock of domestic corporations and interest on Federal, State, and municipal bonds).
Statutory deductions consist of such items as cost of goods sold,
compensation of officers, interest paid, taxes paid other than income
tax, bad debts, depreciation and depletion, loss from the sale of
capital assets (real estate, stocks, bonds, etc.), and items not classified grouped as "Miscellaneous deductions."
The amount tabulated as "Cost of goods sold" includes salaries
and wages only when shown specifically in item 2 (c) on the face of
the return (see form 1120, p. 220). Salaries and wages which may be
allocable to item 2 (c) but which were reported elsewhere on the
return were tabulated as "Miscellaneous deductions."
Table 13 also shows the compiled net profit (or compiled net
deficit), statutory net income or deficit, net loss for prior year, income
tax, and compiled net profit after deducting tax. Compiled net
profit is the excess of compiled receipts over statutory deductions, and
compiled net deficit is the excess of statutory deductions over compiled
receipts. Part 1 of this basic table shows the aggregate data for all
returns; part 2, for returns showing net income; and part 3, for
returns showing no net income.
For statement of compiled receipts and statutory deductions for
all corporations submitting balance sheets distributed by major
industrial groups and by returns showing net income and no net
income, see Table 13, pages 130-141, and Table 15, pages 148-153.
In using data by the industrial classification contained in basic
table 14, the peculiarities with respect to income tax returns w^hich
prevent a pure industrial classification, as outlined on page 4, should
be borne in mind.

ASSETS AND LIABILITIES (CORPORATION RETURNS)

In the table on page 30 are shown for 381,088 corporation returns
out of 459,704 returns of active corporations, a summary statement of
the principal assets and liabilities as of December 31, 1931, or at the
close of the fiscal year nearest thereto; also a tabulation by net income
and deficit classes showing the number of returns and the number of
balance sheets tabulated. Returns reporting balance sheet data of a
fragmentary nature have not been included with those returns reporting balance sheets. The difference between the number of balance
sheets tabulated and the number of returns is due to the returns for
which data for assets and liabilities are not reported or are incompletely
reported. In basic table 15 (pp. 148-153) the same data are shown
by major industrial groups. This table also includes, for the first time,
all items of compiled receipts and statutory deductions for those active
corporations which submitted balance sheets. For descriptive statement of compiled receipts and statutory deductions, see page 27.




STATISTICS OF INCOME

In using the data by industrial groups the peculiarities with respect
to income-tax returns which prevent a pure industrial classification,
as outlined on page 4, should be borne in mind.
The following changes in classification of data affect the comparability of asset and liability data over a period
of years: Prior to
77
1929, "Investments other than tax-exempt
were not segregated
77
from "Miscellaneous assets not distributed.
Prior to 1930, stocks,
bonds other than tax-exempt, loans, mortgages, etc., owned by life
insurance 77
companies were classified as " Miscellaneous assets not
distributed
and beginning with 1930 as "Investments other than tax77
exempt.
Moreover, the returns of corporations become more complete each year with respect to the definite allocation of their forms
of assets, thus steadily decreasing the proportion tabulated as " Miscellaneous assets not distributed77 as well as causing certain shifts as
between the principal forms of assets and liabilities. 77Shifts have been
noted between years particularly under "Liabilities
in the amounts
reported as "Common stock" and "Preferred stock77 due to variations
in reporting these data. For balance sheets in which common and
preferred stock are not reported77 separately, the combined amount is
tabulated as "Common stock.
For balance sheets with no par
stock and not reporting capital stock value,
the net worth is tabulated
under "Surplus and undivided profits.77
Items not otherwise distributed are classified as "Miscellaneous assets77 and "Miscellaneous liabilities,77 among which are the
following:
Miscellaneous assets.—Copyrights; formulas; goodwill; patents;
trade marks; sinking funds; other funds; deferred charges; organization expenses; prepaid and suspense items; interest, discount, coupons,
and dividends receivable; guaranty deposits, and deposits on contracts, meters, and leaseholds; cash value of life insurance. Miscellaneous assets of life insurance companies include market value of
real estate and bonds7 in excess of book value; interest, rents, and
premiums due; agents balances.
Miscellaneous liabilities.—All reserves other than surplus and reserves for depletion, depreciation, and bad debts; deferred and suspense items; funds held in trust; borrowed securities; discount and
dividends payable; outstanding coupons and certificates; overdrafts.
Miscellaneous liabilities of life insurance companies include the net
value of outstanding policies and securities and borrowed money.
Miscellaneous liabilities of banks include deposits (time, saving,
demand, etc.) and bank notes in circulation.

ASSETS AND LIABILITIES AND COMPILED RECEIPTS AND STATUTORY DEDUCTIONS BY SIZE OF TOTAL ASSETS (CORPORATION RETURNS)

In this report there appear for the first time tables showing assets
and liabilities and compiled receipts and statutory deductions for
identical corporations distributed on the basis of size of total assets.
These data are compiled from 381,088 returns filed by corporations
that submitted balance sheets. The difference between this number
and 459,704 returns of active corporations represents returns of active
corporations that did not submit balance sheets, or for which balance
sheet data were of a fragmentary nature.
Data in corporation income-tax returns were classified by size of
total assets in order to provide a combined income and capital
statement of corporate data according to a measure of size. While
there may be considerable difference of opinion as to whether total
assets is the best basis on which to distribute the data, it is the most
practical basis available from, the point of view of the tabulation
problems presented. In connection with the classification of corporation data by size of total assets, attention is directed to the fact that
the balance sheet form " Schedule K " of the corporation income-tax
return (reprinted on p. 221) provides, in the reporting of assets,
that reserves for depreciation of capital assets be deducted from the
gross amount of capital assets and also that reserves for bad debts
be deducted from the gross amount of accounts receivable.
The following table summarizes certain major items for identical
corporations, by total assets classes, including number of returns,
total assets, total compiled receipts and compiled net profit or deficit
for all returns, and for returns with net income and no net income.
In basic table 16 (pp. 154-159) are shown in greater detail the principal assets and liabilities as of December 31, 1931, or at the close of
the fiscal year nearest thereto, and the principal items of compiled
receipts and statutory deductions. In basic table 17 (pp. 160-177)
are shown by major industrial groups and total assets classes selected
items of assets and liabilities as of December 31, 1931, or at close of
fiscal year nearest thereto, selected items of receipts, compiled net
profit or deficit, statutory net income or deficit, and cash dividends
paid. For descriptive statement of assets and liabilities see pages
28-29, and of compiled receipts and statutory deductions, see
page 27.

REVISED ITEMS IN ASSETS AND LIABILITIES, CORPORATION RETURNS, STATISTICS
OF INCOME FOR 1927

On page 28 of the 1930 Statistics of Income, the statement concerning revised items for 1927 found in table 19 under " Summary
for preceding years" should read as follows: "The net change for
1927 is $3,000,000,000, which was erroneously included in the item
of "Miscellaneous liabilities not distributed" and should have been
included in "Bonded debt and mortgages."
REVISED ITEMS IN RECEIPTS AND DEDUCTIONS, CORPORATION RETURNS,
STATISTICS OF INCOME FOR 1930

In the Statistics of Income for 1930, tables 12, 14, and 21, and 16,
for all returns and for returns with net income, in the State of New
York, the industrial group "Manufacturing—Chemicals and allied
products" and the subgroup "Petroleum and other mineral oil refin-

ing," respectively, the following revision of the published figures is
made:
"Gross sales" and ''Cost of goods" are decreased by $1,440,000,000;
"Miscellaneous receipts" and "Miscellaneous deductions" are decreased by $810,000,000; and "Total compiled receipts," "Gross income," and "Statutory deductions'" are decreased by $2,250,000,000.
REVISED NUMBER OF CONSOLIDATED RETURNS OF CORPORATIONS, STATISTICS
OF INCOME FOR 1930

On pages 29 and 30 of Statistics of Income for 1930, the total number of consolidated returns filed by concerns classified as "Manufacturing—Stone, clay, and glass products" is shown as 136 and the
number of those showing no net income is given as 65. Due to
incorrect industrial classification of certain returns, these figures were
understated and should be 147 and 76, respectively. Incorrect
classification also obtained with respect to the number of consolidated
returns filed by concerns classified as "Finance—Banking, insurance,
real estate, stock and bond brokers, etc.," and the total number of
returns is erroneously shown as 1,982, and the number of returns
showing no net income as 1,161, whereas these figures should have
been 1,971 and 1,150, respectively. The financial data reported on
these returns are relatively unimportant and have little effect upon
the totals of the several financial items appearing for each of the
industrial groups concerned. Consequently, the revision which
should be made due to the errors referred to has not been carried
through for any item other than number of returns.
CONSOLIDATED RETURNS (CORPORATION RETURNS)

There were 8,495 consolidated income-tax returns filed for 1931
for affiliated corporations, as against 8,951 for 1930. As provided
by section 141 (d), Revenue Act of 1928, applicable to the taxable
year 1929 and subsequent taxable years, a consolidated return may
be filed where one or more chains of corporations are connected
through stock ownership with a common parent corporation, at least
95 percent of the stock of each of the corporations (except the
common parent) being owned directly by one or more of the other
corporations, and the common parent corporation owning directly
at least 95 percent of the stock of at least one of the other corporations. Of the consolidated returns for 1931, 2,698 showed net
income aggregating $1,846,305,490. The number of consolidated
returns filed was about 1.65 percent of all corporation returns.
However, the net income reported in consolidated returns was 50.13
percent of the net income of all returns showing net income, and
the tax 54.27 percent of the total tax for all corporations.
Presented below are tables prepared from the consolidated returns
showing the returns distributed by major industrial groups, by net
income and deficit classes, and by number of subsidiaries. In interpreting the data contained in these tables it is essential to note that
the industrial classification is based on the predominant business of
the affiiliated corporations for which the consolidated return is filed.
If it were possible to segregate the income of the subsidiary or affiliated
concerns, the data for such concerns might fall in industrial divisions
other than the ones in which they are here included. Attention is
also directed to the fact that the data for consolidated returns are
included in the general tables of corporation income throughout
this report.

1 Changes in the revenue acts affecting the comparability of statistical data from income-tax returns of
individuals are summarized on pp. 198-203. The returns for 1913 are omitted, as they pertain only to the
last 10 months of that year.
2 Excludes 7,635 returns of married women made separate from returns of husbands. In 1916 the net
income on returns filed separately by husband and wife is combined and the total appears as one return.
In all other years the returns of married women filed separately are included in their individual income
classes independently of the husband's income.

STATISTICS OF INCOME

ESTATE-TAX RETURNS

The following tables are compiled from estate-tax returns filed
during the year ended December 31, 1932. They do not represent
the estates of persons who died within this period, since the returns
are not required to be filed until one year after the date of death, and
under certain conditions further extensions of time are granted for
filing. Under the Revenue Acts of 1926 and 1928 a return must
be filed in the case of every resident decedent the value of whose
estate (value at time of his death of all personal property, tangible
or intangible, wherever situated, and all real property situated
in the United States) exceeds $100,000. For deaths prior to February 26, 1926 (10:25 a.m., Washington, D.C., time), and subsequent to June 6, 1932 (5 p.m., Washington, D.C., time), a return
is required if the gross estate exceeds $50,000 in value at date of
death. A return must be filed in the case of every nonresident
decedent who owned property situated in the United States, regardless of value.
The tax is imposed not upon the property or upon any particular
legacy, devise, or distributive share but upon its transfer. The relationship of the beneficiary to the decedent has no bearing upon the
tax liability. The estate tax is not an inheritance tax, although
popularly referred to as such, the distinction being that the estate
tax is based on an estate in its entirety rather than on the distributive
share.
The gross estate as defined by statute includes certain transfers,
such as those made in contemplation of death or intended to take
effect at or after death. The net estate is the amount of the gross
estate less the sum of authorized deductions, and in the case of
resident decedents a specific exemption of $100,000 for individuals
who died from February 26, 1926, to June 6, 1932. Estate-tax
returns filed under the Revenue Acts of 1926 and 1928 are allowed
a tax credit not to exceed 80 percent of the total Federal estate
tax for estate, inheritance, legacy, or succession taxes paid to any
of the several States, Territories, or the District of Columbia. Under
the Revenue Act of 1924 the tax credit was limited to 25 percent
of the total Federal estate tax. Prior to the Revenue Act of 1924
this tax credit was not allowed.
The tables are based on the returns as filed and prior to any adjustments that may be determined upon investigation and audit. The
tax liability reported does not correspond with the actual receipts
of taxes during the period for the reason that payments may be
made at a later date than the filing of the return, and for the reason
that field investigation and office audit may disclose deficiency taxes
or excess payments which are not reflected in these tables. For
statistical purposes the returns are classified by the size of the net
estate corresponding to the successive tax brackets specified in the
Revenue Act of 1926.

$20,000 and for whom a full return was made by withholding agents, were not required to file returns, (c) For 1921 and subsequent years citizens deriving a large portion of their
gross income from sources within a possession of the United States are required to file returns for all income derived from sources within the United States or income from sources
within or without the United States received within the United States, regardless of amount. (See sec. 262 of the Revenue Acts of 1921, 1924, and 1926, and sec. 251 of the Revenue
Acts of 1928 and 1932.) (d) For 1925 and subsequent years American citizens who are nonresidents of the United States for more than 6 months of the year are not required to report
earned income from sources without the United States and are not required to file returns unless their gross income, exclusive of earned income from sources without the United
States, exceeds $5,000; or unless their net income, exclusive of earned income from sources without the United States, exceeds the amount indicated above under "Individuals required
to file returns." (See also (c) above.) For 1932 and subsequent years income from sources without the United States does not include amounts paid by the United States or any
agency thereof. (See sec. 116 (a), Revenue Act of 1932.)

5
Net income means "statutory" net income, i.e., the excess of gross income over deductions as defined in the various revenue acts. Net income has been adjusted from time
to time as follows:
(a) Amortization of buildings, machinery, equipment, or other facilities constructed or acquired on or after Apr. 6, 1917, for the production of articles contributing to the prosecution of the war is included to a reasonable amount in business deductions for 1918, 1919, 1920, and 1921.
(b) Contributions to charitable and scientific organizations, etc., not exceeding 15 percent of the net income before deducting the contributions, are deducted for 1917 and
subsequent years. For unlimited deduction of contributions see sec. 214 (10), Revenue Acts of 1924 and 1926, and sec. 120, Revenue Acts of 1928 and 1932.
.
(c) Losses sustained in transactions entered into for profit but not connected with business or trade are not deductible for 1913 to 1915, inclusive. For 1916 and 1917 such losses
are deductible to the extent of the aggregate income from such transactions; for 1918 to 1931, inclusive, such losses are wiiolly deductible, excepting that for 1924 and subsequent years
the loss, if incurred through the sale of capital assets held for more than 2 years, is deductible from total tax, to the extent of 12M> percent of the loss. (See table C.) For 1932 and
subsequent years losses from sales or exchanges of stocks or bonds (other than capital assets held for more than 2 years, and other than bonds issued by a government or political
subdivision thereof) are allowed only to the extent of the gains from such sales or exchanges.
(d) Net loss for prior year resulting from the operation of any trade or business regularly carried on by the taxpayer: In the case of a net loss for any taxable year beginning after
Oct. 31, 1918, and ending prior to Jan. 1, 1920, the Revenue Act of 1918 provides for the deduction of such loss from net income of the preceding year, a redetermination of taxes for the
preceding year being made. When the net loss exceeds the net income for the preceding year, the amount of such excess is to be deducted from the net income of the succeeding
taxable year. The Revenue Acts of 1921 to 1928, inclusive, provide that net loss in any year beginning after Dec. 31, 1920, may be deducted from the net income of the succeeding taxable year, and if such net loss exceeds the net income for the succeeding year, the amount of such excess is to be allowed in the next succeeding year. The Revenue Act of
19326provides that a net loss for the year 1930 and succeeding years shall be allowed as a deduction in computing net income for 1 succeeding taxable year only.
Net income subject to normal tax is all net income after deducting the sum of (a) personal exemption; (b) credit for dependents; (c) dividends on stock of domestic corporations
(other than those deriving a large portion of their gross income from sources within a possession of the United States, 1921 and subsequent years, and other than China Trade Act
corporations, 1922 and subsequent years, and other than corporations exempt from tax for 1932 and subsequent years); (d) dividends on stock of foreign corporations receiving a certain
amount of income from sources within the United States, 1913 and subsequent years; (e) income, the tax upon which has been paid or withheld for payment at the source of income for
the years
1913 to 1917, inclusive; and (/) interest not wholly tax exempt on United States obligations issued after Sept. 1, 1917.

9

alien10 is a citizen either imposes no income tax or allows similar credit to citizens of the United States not residing within such foreign country.
Tax for 1923 reduced 25 percent by credit or refund under sec. 1200 (a) of the Revenue Act of 1924.
11
For net incomes of $5,000 and over, personal exemption is $2,000.

the pre-war period the individual had a deficit or a very small income from business, or if invested capital cannot be determined, same percent as that of representative businesses.
(See4 sec. 210, Revenue Act of 1917.)
Nonresident aliens were not allowed to deduct income taxes paid to foreign countries either as a tax credit or in general deductions for the years 1918, 1919, and 1920.
5
Beginning with 1921 the credit cannot exceed the proportion of the total tax against which the credit is taken that the taxpayer's net income from sources without the United
States bears to the entire net income. This credit does not apply to nonresident aliens nor to citizens deriving a large portion of their gross income from sources within a possession of the United States, but to such persons these taxes are allowable as a deduction from gross income, if imposed upon income from sources within the United States. For the
years 1921 to 1931, inclusive, the amount of income and profits taxes paid to foreign countries or United States possessions, in excess of that deducted as a tax credit, is permitted to be
included
in deductions against gross income.

For 1932 and subsequent years the taxpayer may elect to deduct the taxes paid to foreign countries or United States possessions (with certain limitations) from the total tax
liability, or to include the entire amount of the taxes paid to foreign countries or United States possessions in deductions against gross income. (See sec. 131, Revenue Act of 1932.)

All corporations are required to file returns regardless of amount of net income or loss, except those
specifically exempt, such as mutual, cooperative, fraternal, civic, charitable, scientific, etc., not operating
for profit. Under the Revenue Act of 1909, corporations were required to file returns on a calendar year
basis; under subsequent revenue acts corporations were permitted to file returns on a fiscal year basis,
other than the calendar year; except that under the act of 1921 and subsequent acts, life insurance companies were required to file on a calendar year basis in accordance with the State laws regulating insurance
companies. Foreign corporations are required to file income tax returns for all income derived from sources
within the United States regardless of amount. From Jan. 1, 19]8, to Dec. 31, 1921, personal service corporations were treated as partnerships. Prior and subsequent to said dates, such corporations were taxed
as other corporations.
2
Net income means "statutory " net income, i.e., the excess of gross income over deductions as defined in
the various revenue acts. Foreign corporations report only net income from sources within the United
States; for 1921 and subsequent years domestic corporations deriving a large portion of their gross income
from sources within a possession of the United States report only income from sources within the United
States or income from sources within or without the United States received within the United States (see
sec. 262 (b) of the Revenue Acts ot 1921,1924, and 1926 and sec. 251 (b) of the Revenue Acts of 1928 and 1932).
Net income has been adjusted from time to time as follows:
(a) Amortization of buildings, machinery, equipment, or other facilities constructed or acquired on or
after Apr. 6, 1917, for the production of articles contributing to the prosecution of the war, is included to a
reasonable amount in business deductions for 1918, 1919, 1920, and 1921.
(6) Dividends on stock of domestic corporations (other than those deriving a large portion of their gross
income from sources within a possession of the United States, 1921 and subsequent years, and other than
China Trade Act corporations, 1922 and subsequent years, and other than corporations exempt from tax for
1932 and subsequent years) were entirely tax exempt under the Revenue Acts of 1909,1918, and subsequent
years, as well as dividends on stock of foreign corporations receiving a certain amount of income from sources
within the United States under the Revenue Acts of 1909, 1918, and subsequent years.

For 1917 and
prior years,
income and
profits taxes
paid to foreign
countries or
United States
possessions
were not allowed as a tax
credit, but were
i n c l u d e d in
general deductions from gross
income, except
that taxes paid
to foreign countries were not
allowed to foreign corporations.

(c) Losses sustained during a taxable year and not compensated for by insurance or otherwise, are entirely
deductible, except that for 1932 and subsequent years losses from sales or exchanges of stocks or bonds (other
than capital assets and other than bonds issued by a government or political subdivision thereof) are
allowed only to the extent of the gains from such sales or exchanges.
(d) Net loss for prior year resulting from the operation of any trade or business regularly carried on by the
taxpayer: In the case of a net loss for any taxable year beginning after Oct. 31,1918, and ending prior to Jan.
1,1920, the Revenue Act of 1918 provides for the deduction of such loss from the net income of the preceding
year, a redetermination of taxes for the preceding year being made. When the net loss exceeds the net
income for the preceding year the amount of such excess is to be deducted from the net income of the succeeding taxable year. The Revenue Acts of 1921 to 1928, inclusive, provide that net loss in any year beginning after Dec. 31, 1920, may be deducted from the net income of the succeeding taxable year, and if such
net loss exceeds the net income for the succeeding year, the amount of such excess is to be allowed in the
next succeeding year. The Revenue Act of 1932 provides that a net loss for the year 1930 and succeeding
years shall be allowed as a deduction in computing net income for one succeeding taxable year only.
(e) For insurance companies, see special provisions in the various revenue acts.
3
The $3,000 credit not allowable to foreign corporations.
4
Invested capital within the meaning of the statute is the capital actually paid in to the corporation by
the stockholders, including surplus and undivided profits (exclusive of that for the current year), stocks,
bonds, and other obligations (other than obligations of the United States) the dividends or interest from
which are not included in computing net income, and excluding inadmissible assets. (See art. 831 of Regulations 45, relating to the Revenue Act of 1918.) For 1917, foreign corporations reported that proportion of
invested capital which net income from sources within the United States was of the entire net income.
For the years 1918 to 1921, inclusive, it was not necessary for foreign corporations to report invested capital,
and for the year 1921 it was not necessary for corporations deriving a large portion of their gross income
from sources within a possession of the United States to report invested capital. (See note, 2, next page.)

1918
and subsequent years.
2
For the years 1918 to 1921, inclusive, the war-profits and excess-profits tax of foreign corporations, and for
1921, the war-profits and excess-profits tax of corporations deriving a large portion of their gross income from
sources within a possession of the United States is computed by comparison with representative corporations whose invested capital can be satisfactorily determined and which are engaged in a like or similar
trade or business and similarly circumstanced (see sec. 328, Revenue Acts of 1918 and 1921). See note 4,
preceding
page.
3
Foreign corporations were not allowed to deduct income taxes paid to foreign countries either as a tax
credit or in general deductions for the years 1918, 1919, and 1920. Beginning with 1921, the credit cannot
exceed the proportion of the total tax against which the credit is taken that the taxpayer's net income from
sources without the United States bears to the entire net income. This credit does not apply to foreign
corporations or to domestic corporations deriving a large portion of their gross income from sources within
a possession of the United States, but to such corporations these taxes are allowable as a deduction from
gross income if imposed upon income from sources within the United States. For the years 1921 to 1931,
inclusive, the amount of taxes paid to foreign countries or United States possessions in excess of that deducted as a tax credit is permitted to be included in deductions against gross income. See note 13.

6 If corporation was not in existence during the whole of at least 1 calendar year during the pre-war

percentage of invested capital for the taxable year as the average percentage of net income to invested
capital for the pre-war period of representative corporations; but such amount shall in no case be less than
10 percent of the invested capital of the taxpayer for the taxable year. (See sec. 311, Revenue Act of 1918.)

For 1932 and subsequent years the taxpayer may elect to deduct the taxes paid to foreign countries or

amount of the taxes paid to foreign countries or United States possessions in deductions against gross income.
(See sec. 131, Revenue Act of 1932.)
NOTE.—For the year 1917 there was also a tax of 10 percent upon that portion of the total net income
remaining undistributed 6 months after the close of the taxable year, in excess of the income actually
employed in the business, or invested in obligations of the United States issued after Sept. 1,1917.
For the years 1918 to 1920, inclusive, a corporation that permitted an unreasonable accumulation of profits
was not subject to the ordinary corporation income tax but the individual stockholders were taxed upon
their proportionate shares of its net income in the same manner as the members of a partnership or a personal service corporation.
For the years 1921 to 1923, inclusive, an additional tax of 25 percent was imposed upon the taxable net
income of a corporation where it was shown that there had been an evasion of surtax as the result of an
unreasonable accumulation of profits. This additional tax was increased to 50 percent for 1924 and subsequent years, with the provision for 1926 and subsequent years that the 50 percent additional tax shall not

21. PERSONS REQUIRED TO MAKE A RETURN OF INCOME
An income tax return must be filed by every citizen of the United States
whether residing at home or abroad, and every person residing in the United
States though not a citizen thereof, whose gross income for the taxable year 1931
amounted to $5,000, or whose net income amounted to—
(a) $1,500 if single or if married and not living with husband or wife;
(b) $3,500 if married and living with husband or wife; or
(c) More than the personal exemption if status of taxpayer changes.
If an individual is single and the net income, including that of dependent
minors, if any, is $1,500 or over, or if the gross income is $5,000 or over, a return
must be filed. If the combined net income of husband and wife, and dependent
minor children, if any, is $3,500 or over, or if their combined gross income is
85,000 or over, all such income must be reported on a, joint return, or on separate
returns of husband and wife. In case the husband and wife elect to file separate

Income of (a) estates of decedents before final settlement, (6) trusts, whether
created by will or deed, for unascertained persons or persons with contingent
tion, is taxed to the fiduciary as a single person, except that from the income of a
decedent's estate there may be deducted any amouut properly paid or credited
to a beneficiary.
22. PERSONAL EXEMPTION AND CREDIT FOR DEPENDENTS
A single person, or a married person not living with husband or wife, mnv
claim an exemption of 51,500. A person who was the head of a family or was
married and living with husband or wife during the entire taxable year, may claim
an exemption of $3,500. If husband and wife file separate returns, the exemntion may be taken by either or divided between them.
A "head of a family" is an individual who actually supports and maintain?
in one household one or more individuals who are closely connected with him bv
blood relationship, relationship by marriage, or by adoption, and whose right to
exercise family control and provide for these- dependent individuals is based
upon some moral or legal obligation.
In addition to the personal exemption, a credit of 3400 may be claimed for
each person (other than husband or wife) under eighteen years of age, or incapable of self-support because mentally or physically defective, who was receiving his or her chief support from the taxpayer on the fast day of the taxable year.
This credit can be claimed only by the person who furnishes the chief support,
and can not be divided between two individuals.
In case the status of a taxpayer changes during the year, the personal
exemption shall be an amount which bears the same ratio to 81,500 as the
number of months the taxpayer was single bears to twelve months, plus an
amount which bears the same ratio to $3,500 as the number of months the
taxpayer was married and living with husband or wife, or was the head of a
family, bears to twelve months. For this purpose a fractional part of a month
shall be disregarded unless it amounts to more than half a. month, in which case
it shall be considered as a full month. The exemption shall cot exceed S3,500
where the head of a family is married during the year.
In the case of an individual who dies during the taxable year, the personal
exemption and credit for dependents shall be determined by his or her statu3
at the time of death. Full credits shall also be allowed to the surviving spouse
according to hia or her ftatua at the close of the taxable year.
Where a return is filed on this form for an estate in'procesa of administration, or for a trust, an exemption of SI,500 may be claimed.
