STATISTICS OF INCOME FOR 1935
PART 1
INDIVIDUAL INCOME TAX RETURNS, ESTATE TAX RETURNS, AND
GIFT TAX RETURNS
TREASURY DEPARTMENT,
OFFICE OF COMMISSIONER OF INTERNAL REVENUE,

Washington, D. C, September 28, 1938.
SIR: In accordance with the provision in the Revenue Act of 1916
and subsequent acts requiring the publication annually of statistics
with respect to the operation of the income, war-profits, and excessprofits tax laws, I have the honor to transmit herewith a report
entitled "Statistics of Income for 1935, Part 1," prepared from individual income tax returns for 1935 filed during 1936, with a historical
presentation of the income and of the tax liability reported by individuals 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
,1936, irrespective of the date of death of the decedent, as well as
tabulations of data from gift tax returns filed during 1936, with brief
historical summaries.
INDIVIDUAL INCOME TAX RETURNS
RETURNS TABULATED

Individual income tax returns for 1935 were filed under the provisions of the Revenue Act of 1934. The major changes made by
this act affecting individual income taxes are set forth in the synopsis
of individual income tax rates, credits, and exemptions on pages
132-139.
The year for which the income is reported is, in general, the calendar
year ended December 31, 1935. However, a negligible number of
individual returns is filed for a fiscal year other than the calendar
year. The returns for a fiscal year ended in the period July, 1935,
through June, 1936, are tabulated with the calendar year returns.
There are also included part-year returns for which the greater part
of the accounting period falls in 1935.
The general tables for individuals include only returns with net
income. The data tabulated from individual returns with no net
income are shown on pages 29-30 and 127-128. Prior to 1928 no
tabulations were made from individual returns with no net income.
The filing of returns with no net income or with a net income of less
than $1,000 is due to (1) the provisions of the Kevenue Act of 1921
and subsequent acts requiring that a return be filed by every individual
with gross income of $5,000 and over, irrespective of the amount of net
income or deficit, and by every married couple living together and
having an aggregate gross income of $5,000 and over; (2) married
couples electing to file separate returns, as provided by law; (3)




2

STATISTICS OF INCOME

returns filed in the case of the death of the taxpayer covering the
income period to date of death; and (4) part-year returns filed by
taxpayers electing to change the accounting period.
The statistics are taken from returns as filed and prior to any
revision or adjustment that may subsequently be made as a result of
audit by the Bureau of Internal Revenue, and include data from
amended returns showing net income of $100,000 and over, but not
from tentative returns, or amended returns with net income under
$100,000. The data from income tax returns filed by individuals
reporting net income of $5,000 and over are tabulated from each such
return. Individual returns of net income under $5,000 filed on Form
1040, 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, pass through the
Statistical Section, and the data are tabulated from each of these
returns.
The statistics pertaining to individual returns with net income
under $5,000, excepting those on Form 1040 specified above (which
numbered approximately 285,000), 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 1040A for net income
of not more than $5,000, derived chiefly from salaries and wages.
All returns, Form 1040, are sent to Washington for administrative
action and those with net income under $5,000, excepting those referred to above, are sampled by the Statistical Section. The returns,
Form 1040A, are retained in the collection districts and samples only
are sent to Washington.
The sample for 1935 included approximately 252,000 returns on
Form 1040 and 299,000 on Form 1040A, representing for each collection district not less than 10 percent of the number oi taxable and
nontaxable returns, Form 1040 and 1040A, with net income under
$5,000. The minimum for Form 1040 was 4,000, or 10 percent of the
number filed, whichever was larger, and for Form 1040A the minimum was 2,000, or 10 percent of the number filed, whichever was
larger. When the number of returns filed in a collection district in
this class was less than 4,000 in the case of Form 1040 or 2,000 in the
case of Form 1040A, 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.)
DEFINITION OF NET INCOME

Throughout this report "net income7' represents the amount of
gross income, as defined in the revenue acts effective for the year for
which the returns are filed, 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. Credits allowed




STATISTICS OF INCOME

individuals, such as personal exemption, credit for dependents, and
credit for earned income, are not included in deductions.
Net income includes gains and losses from the sales of capital assets
to the extent required or allowed under the Revenue Act of 1934.
(See pp. 7-8 for a statement concerning treatment of net capital gains
and losses.) Surtax net income represents the amount of net income
less personal exemption and credit for dependents. The amount of
net income subject to normal tax is determined by subtracting from
the surtax net income the amounts of interest received on Government obligations not wholly exempt from tax, dividends received,
and earned income credit.
TAX LIABILITY AND COLLECTIONS

The amount of tax liability as reported on the returns is not precisely
comparable with the amount of individual income tax collections during the calendar year in which the returns are filed. Several factors
are responsible for the difference in the taxes collected and the tax
liability reported on the returns, among which are the following:
1. The amount of tax originally reported may have been subsequently revised as the result of audit of returns. The revisions may
result in additional assessments, thereby increasing the tax liability,
or in certificates of overassessment, representing abatements and
credits, which reduce the tax liability originally reported. An
amended return has the same effect as an audit revision.
2. Income and profits taxes paid to foreign countries or possessions
of the United States may be taken as a deduction from gross income
or applied with certain limitations as a credit against the income
tax payable to the United States. The amount of such taxes taken
as a credit by individuals against the income tax liability to the
United States has not been deducted from the amount of income tax
liability shown in the tabulations in this report. The aggregate
amounts of this credit, wThich are available only for the years 1925 to
1930, inclusive, appear on page 9 of the Statistics of Income for 1930.
3. 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 arriving at the income tax liability of individual returns
shown herein.
4. The amount of tax liability on fiscal year returns may not represent taxes collected during the calendar year in which the returns are
filed.
5. Tabulations in this report exclude data reported on the individual
income tax returns, Form 1040C, used by departing aliens, whereas
collections in the current year include taxes paid by these individuals.
6. 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. For similar reasons, certain amounts are uncollectible.
7. Collections in the current year include such interest and penalty
items as are received in connection with delinquent payments on
returns.

STATISTICS OF INCOME
GEOGRAPHIC DISTRIBUTION

Individual income tax returns may be filed in the collection district
in which the taxpayer resides or in which his principal place of business
is located. Although the returns are tabulated by the States in which
they are filed, the data do not represent the geographic distribution of
the sources of income, as income reported by an individual in one
State may have been derived from sources in other States.
COMPARABILITY WITH PREVIOUS REPORTS

In various sections of this report, attention is directed to changes in
the provisions of the revenue acts under which the returns for given
years are filed which interfere with a precise comparability of the
data over a period of years. The major provisions of the revenue
acts from 1913 to date are shown on pages 129-142.
NUMBER OF RETURNS, NET INCOME AND TAX

The returns of individuals reporting net income for 1935 numbered
4,575,012, of which 2,110,890 were taxable and 2,464,122 nontaxable.
Aggregate net income was $14,909,812,025, of which $10,034,105,975
was reported on taxable returns and $4,875,706,050 on nontaxable
returns. The total tax liability reported on taxable returns was
$657,439,343. Tax liability averaged $144 for all returns and $311
for taxable returns. The effective tax rates were 4.4 percent for all
returns and 6.6 percent for taxable returns. The number of returns
reporting a net income was 3.6 percent of the total population (Census
Bureau estimate of population as of July 1, 1935).
As compared with returns for 1934, the total number of returns increased by 480,592, or 11.7 percent, the number of taxable returns
increased by 314,970, or 17.5 percent, and the number of nontaxable
returns increased by 165,622, or 7.2 percent. The total net income
increased $2,113,009,943, or 16.5 percent, the net income on taxable
returns increased $1,690,547,684, or 20.3 percent, and the net income
on nontaxable returns increased $422,462,259, or 9.5 percent. The
tax liability increased $146,039,565, or 28.6 percent. The effective
rates of tax for 1934, which were slightly lower than those for returns
for 1935, were 4.0 percent for all returns and 6.1 percent for taxable
returns.
The distribution of returns of individuals by States and Territories
is given in the basic table 1, page 73, and by net income classes in basic
table 2, pages 74-75. Each of these tables shows number of returns,
net income, tax, personal exemption and credit for dependents.
SIMPLE AND CUMULATIVE DISTRIBUTION BY NET INCOME CLASSES OF NUMBER
OF RETURNS, NET INCOME, AND TAX

The distribution of returns by a limited number of net income classes
is exhibited in the following table, which includes the number of returns, net income, and tax; also cumulative totals and percentages.
In basic table 3, pages 76-78, a similar distribution of the number
of returns, net income, and tax, is shown by a more detailed net income
classification.

STATISTICS OF INCOME
CLASSIFICATION BY SEX AND FAMILY RELATIONSHIP

The table presented herewith shows the number of individual returns and the net income distributed according to sex and family
relationship of the taxpayer. In basic tables 4 and 5, pages 79-84,
similar data are shown by States and Territories and by net income
classes, respectively.
This year, the separate returns of husbands and the returns of estates and trusts are shown for the first time. In prior years, the separate returns of husbands were tabulated with the joint returns of
husbands and wives, the returns of estates were distributed among the
various groups of returns according to the sex and family relationship
of the testator or grantor, and the returns for property held, in trust
were distributed according to the sex and family relationship of the
beneficiarv, if the status of the beneficiary could be determined, or according to the sex and family relationship of the testator or grantor, if
the status of the beneficiary could not be determined.
The tabulation of the returns showing community property income
excludes returns with net income under $5,000 and joint returns of
husband and wife with net income under $10,000. The returns of
married persons not showing community property income filed in the
eight community property States are classified according to the status
reported, as joint returns of husbands and wives or separate returns
of husbands and wives. In tabulating joint returns showing community property net income of $10,000 and over, with tax liability apportioned between husband and wife, the items of income and deductions
are divided to represent two community property returns, the net
income class for each of the separate returns being one-half of the combined community income. Separate returns of husbands and wives
showing community property income of $5,000 and over are classified
as community property returns by net income classes according to the
net income on each return.

An unequal number of separate returns of husbands and wives results from the use of the sample method
for returns with net income of under $5,000, as the net income of one spouse maybe $5,000 or over and that
of the other spouse under $5,000 (see discussion of simple?, p. 2).

CAPITAL GAINS AND LOSSES

The special provisions in the revenue acts for capital gains and losses
from the sale of assets held more than two years apply, for capital gains,
to sales after December 31, 1921, and prior to January 1, 1934, and
for capital losses, to sales after December 31, 1923, and prior to
January 1, 1934. A summary of the provisions of the Revenue Act
of 1921 and subsequent acts, affecting the tax on capital gains, and
of the provisions of the Revenue Act of 1924 and subsequent acts,
affecting the tax credit on capital losses, is found on pages 8 and 9
of the Statistics of Income for 1933 and in the synopsis of laws in this
report, pages 138-139. The "total income" and "net income" for
individual returns for 1922 through 1933, as presented in the historical tables in this report, pages 37-42, include "capital net gains,"
whereas for the years 1924 through 1933 the "net income" has not
been reduced by and "deductions" have not been increased by the
amount of "capital net losses" reported for tax credit.
Under the Revenue Act of 1934 the definition of capital assets is
extended to include assets held by the taxpayer, regardless of time
held, instead of only assets held over two years. Also, certain percentages of the gain or loss recognized upon such sales or exchanges
are taken into account in computing net income. These percentages
vary according to the period for which the assets have been held. The
deduction for net capital losses is limited to an amount not in excess
of $2,000, after subtracting the prorated gains from the sales or
exchanges of capital assets.




8

STATISTICS OF INCOME

The net income reported on the individual income tax returns for
1934 and 1935 includes net capital gains and net capital losses computed in accordance with the above limitations. It is not possible,
by using the net capital gain and net capital loss on the returns for
1934 and 1935, to adjust the "total income/' "net income," and
"deductions" so that they will be comparable with these items tabulated for prior years. Moreover, net capital gains and losses reported
on individual income tax returns for 1934 and 1935 are not comparable
with "profit and loss from sale of real estate, stocks, and bonds, etc.,"
"capital net gain," or "capital net loss" which were reported on
returns in prior years.
SOURCES OF INCOME AND DEDUCTIONS

In the table on page 9 there appears a distribution, by sources, of
the income and deductions reported by individuals. Income from
the various sources represents the net amount by which the gross
receipts exceed the deductions allowed, as reported in the schedules
of the return (see Form 1040, p. 146), and in aggregate represents the
sum of the net amounts of income from each source. Net losses
reported under "income" items on the face of the returns are transferred in tabulation to deductions, which also include amounts
reported on the return under "deductions."
Income from partnerships and fiduciaries does not include amounts
received through these entities from dividends on stock of domestic
corporations or from taxable interest on obligations of the United
States, since these items are reported under their respective classifications. In returns for 1934 and 1935, the income from partnerships
and. fiduciaries includes the net capital gain and loss resulting from
their sales of capital assets.
With reference to the amount of net capital gains and net capital
losses, attention is directed to the provisions of the Revenue Act of
1934, as described in the section of the text entitled "Capital gains
and losses."
The items of "interest paid" and "taxes paid" which are reported
under "deductions" on the individual income tax returns do not
include amounts reported as business deductions in schedules A and B.
Interest paid is reported as item 13, on the face of the return, 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 schedule A or B). Do
not include interest on indebtedness incurred or continued to purchase or carry
obligations (other than obligations of the United States issued after September 24,
1917, and originally subscribed for by the taxpayer) the interest upon which is
wholly exempt from taxation.

Taxes paid exclude (1) the Federal income tax, (2) estate, inheritance, legacy, succession, and gift taxes, (3) income and profits taxes
paid to foreign countries or possessions of the United States, which are
allowed as a credit against the tax, and (4) taxes reported on Form
1040F, schedule of farm income and expenses. Taxes paid are
reported as item 14 on the face of the return, Form 1040, in accordance
with the following instructions:




9

STATISTICS OF INCOME

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, nor estate, inheritance, legacy, succession, and gift taxes, nor
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 33, No deduction is allowable for any portion of foreign income and profits taxes if a credit is claimed in item 33,

A historical summary of taxes paid for the years 1927 through 1932
and of interest paid for the years 1928 through 1932 is found in the

PROFIT AND LOSS FROM BUSINESS, BY INDUSTRIAL GROUPS, RETURNS WITH NET
INCOME OF $5,000 AND OVER

The profit and loss from business (other than from partnerships)
reported on returns, Form 1040, with net income of $5,000 and over,
are classified in the following table according to nature of business.
For returns with information on schedule A, there are shown the
number of businesses with profit and with loss, total receipts, salaries
and wages paid, and the amount of profit and loss. For returns with
business but without information on schedule A, and for all returns
with business, there are presented the number of businesses with profit
and with loss and the amount of profit and loss. These data represent only such amounts reported by individuals as sole proprietors,
and do not necessarily indicate the principal occupation of the individual nor the total income reported on the return.
In the tabulation of sources of income from individual returns the
classification "business profit" represents items of profit reported on
the returns, as shown hj the total receipts from business or profession,
less cost of goods sold and other business deductions, such as salaries,
interest on business indebtedness, taxes on business or business property, losses from fire or storm, bad debts arising from sales; depreciation, obsolescence and depletion, rents, repairs, and other expenses
as provided for in schedule A of the individual income tax returns,
Form 1040. The "business loss" represents items of loss from
business which occur when deductions exceed the total receipts, as
reported on the returns.

STATISTICS OF INCOME

The tabulation presented herewith shows, for returns with net
income of $5,000 and over, the wholly and partially tax-exempt obligations owned as of the end of the year, and the total wholly and
partially tax-exempt interest received or accrued during the year, segregated by nature of obligation and by net income classes. Bond
holdings frequently vary materially during the year, therefore, the
amount of bonds reported as of the end of the year may include
bonds for which no interest was received or accrued, and, vice versa,
the interest reported may include interest on bonds which have been
sold prior to the end of the year.
Moreover, in some capes where the income is received through
partnerships and fiduciaries, interest is reported for which no corresponding principal amount owned, representing the pro rata share of
the member of the partnership or beneficiary of the estate or trust in
the principal owned by the partnership or estate or trust, is reported.
Schedule D, Form 1040, from which this table is prepared, is a
supplementary informational schedule and frequently is not completely filled out. Therefore, the amount of interest in excess of
exemption may not correspond to the amount of taxable interest on
Liberty bonds, etc., reported on the face of the return for tax computation.
This year, for the first time, data for the partially tax-exempt
United States savings bonds are tabulated with the Liberty 4 and
4% percent bonds and the Treasury bonds.
RETURNS ON FORM 1040 WITH NO NET INCOME

As noted on page 1, the general tables for individual returns in
Statistics of Income do not include data from returns which show no
net income. Such returns, in most instances, 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 deficit classes, are shown in basic tables 10 and 11,.

N U M B E R OF R E T U R N S BY COUNTIES, CITIES, AND TOWNS

The statistics showing the number of individual income tax returns
for 1935 by counties, cities, and towns having a population of 1,000 and
over are issued in a separate mimeographed bulletin entitled "Individual Income Tax Returns for 1935—Number of Returns by
States, by Counties, and by Cities and Towns/ 7 which was released
in May, 1937. Copies may be secured from the Bureau of Internal
Revenue, Washington, D. C , upon request. Information on net
income and tax liability on individual income tax returns is not tabulated for smaller civil divisions than States and Territories.
PARTNERSHIP RETURNS OF INCOME
Partnership returns, except for the war excess-profits tax of 1917,
are not subject to direct assessment. The partnership net income,
whether distributed or not, or the net loss, is reported on the individual
returns of the copartners according to their shares. A partnership
return of income (Form 1065, see p. 152) is, however, required to be
filed.

Changes in the revenue acts affecting the comparability of statistical data from income tax returns of
individuals are summarized on pp. 132-139. The returns for 1913 are omitted, as they pertain only to the
last 10 months of that year. Data for returns of net income under $5,000 are estimated on basis of sample for
1918 through 1927 and for 1929; and partly estimated and partly tabulated 1928,1930, and subsequent years.
2
Excludes 7,635 returns of married women making separate returns from 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.
s Revised figures. (See Statistics of Income for 1925, pp. 28-29.)

STATISTICS OF INCOME

1
Changes in the revenue acts affecting the comparability of statistical data from income tax returns of
individuals are summarized on pp. 132-139. The income items for 1916 are "Gross income," the deductions
not having been allocated to the various sources but included in aggregate under "Deductions." Beginning 1917, the income items are "net income," the deductions allocable to the various sources of income
being applied against the gross income from the specific sources as reported on the schedules in the income
tax returns. When net losses are shown on the schedules, such net losses are transferred in tabulation to
"Deductions" which also include the other unallocated items shown on the return under "Deductions."
Data for returns of net income under $5,000 are estimated on basis of sample for years 1918 through 1927
and for 1929; and partly estimated and partly tabulated 1928, 1930, and subsequent years.

ESTATE TAX RETURNS

The estate tax is imposed upon the transfer of the net estate in its
entirety and not upon any particular legacy, devise, or distributive
share. The relationship of the beneficiary to the decedent has no
bearing upon the tax liability.
Estate tax returns were filed during the calendar year 1936 under
the provisions of the Revenue Act of 1924 or prior acts, the Revenue
Act of 1926, and the combined provisions of the Revenue Acts of
1926 and 1932, 1926 and 1934, and 1926 and 1935. A synopsis of
estate tax rates, specific exemption, and credits against tax under
the Revenue Acts of 1916 to 1935, inclusive, is presented on pages
140-141.
An estate tax return is required under these revenue acts in the
case of every citizen, regardless of place of residence, or resident
(only in case of every resident if the decedent died prior to May 11,
1934, the effective date of the Revenue Act of 1934), whose gross
estate, as defined in the statutes, exceeds the specific exemption
allowed. The specific exemption is $50,000 under the Revenue Act
of 1924 and prior acts, $100,000 under the Revenue Act of 1926,
$50,000 for the purpose of the additional estate tax under the Revenue
Acts of 1932 and 1934, and $40,000 for the purpose of the additional
estate tax under the Revenue Act of 1935. A return is required in
the case of every nonresident alien (or every nonresident citizen and
alien if the decedent died prior to May 11, 1934, the effective date of
the Revenue Act of 1934) any part of whose estate, regardless of value,
was situated at date of death in the United States, within the meaning
of the statute.
Prior to the effective date of the Revenue Act of 1935 (August 31,
1935) returns were required to be filed within 1 year after date of
death, while under the Revenue Act of 1935 returns are required to
be filed within 15 months after date of death. Under certain conditions further extensions of time are granted for filing. In determining the value of the gross estate under the 1935 Act the executor
may elect either the date of the decedent's death or the date one year
after the decedent's death, or in the case of property distributed,
sold, exchanged, or otherwise disposed of during the year following
death, as of the date of the distribution, sale, exchange, or other disposition. Under former revenue acts the value of the gross estate
was determined as of the date of death.
The gross estate as defined by law 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
(1) the sum of the authorized deductions, and (2) the specific exemption allowed in the case of citizen or resident decedents (prior to the
enactment of the Revenue Act of 1934, exemption allowed for resident
decedents only).
Returns for estates of decedents who died prior to 10:25 a. m., February 26, 1926, are filed under revenue acts passed prior to that date and
returns for estates of decedents who died during the period 10:25 a. m.,
February 26, 1926, through 4:59 p. m., June 6, 1932, are filed under
the Revenue Act of 1926. Estates of decedents who died subsequent
to the effective date of the Revenue Act of 1932 (5 p. m., June 6, 1932)
are subject to two estate taxes, the tax levied under the provisions of
the Revenue Act of 1926 and an additional estate tax imposed by the




44

STATISTICS OF INCOME

Revenue Act of 1932, or by that Act as amended by the Revenue
Acts of 1934 and 1935. The tax under the Revenue Act of 1926
applies to net estates after deduction of a specific exemption of
$100,000 and tax credits are allowed for estate, inheritance, legacy,
or succession taxes paid to any State, Territory, or the District
of Columbia not to exceed 80 percent of the Federal estate tax, and
for gift taxes paid to the Federal Government. The additional estate
tax applies to net estates after deduction of a specific exemption of
$50,000 under the 1932 and 1934 Revenue Acts, and $40,000 under
the 1935 Act, and is equal to the excess of (1) the amount of a tentative
tax computed at the rates specified in the act which is in effect over (2)
the amount of the tax computed at rates in the Revenue Act of 1925
before deduction of the tax credits provided. The rates of the tentative tax under the Revenue Act of 1932 were graduated from 1 percent
upon net estates not in excess of $10,000 to 45 percent upon the
amount in excess of $10,000,000. ^ Under the Revenue Acts of 1934
and 1935 the rates of the tentative tax were increased, reaching a
maximum rate under the 1935 Act of 70 percent on the amount of net
estate in excess of $50,000,000.
The Revenue Act of 1924 allows a tax credit not to exceed 25 percent of the Federal estate tax (after deduction of any credit for gift
tax imposed by the Revenue Act of 1924) for estate, inheritance,
legacy, or succession taxes paid to any State, Territory, or the District
of Columbia, in respect of any property included in the gross estate.
Prior to the Revenue Act of 1924 this tax credit was not allowed.
Under the Revenue Act of 1926, this tax credit is increased to an
amount not to exceed 80 percent of the Federal estate tax. No credit
for estate, inheritance, legacy, or succession taxes is allowable against
the additional estate tax imposed by the Revenue Act of 1932, or by
that Act as amended. Credit for gift tax imposed by the provisions of
the Revenue Act of 1924 is allowable against estate tax payable under
the Revenue Act of 1924 or the Revenue Act of 1926 with respect
to so much of the property which constituted a gift as is included in the
decedent's gross estate. For decedents who died subsequent to the
effective date of the Revenue Act of 1932, a tax credit for gift taxes
paid to the Federal Government is allowed both against the tax computed under the Revenue Act of 1926 and against the additional tax
computed under the Revenue Act of 1932, 1934, or 1935.
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




STATISTICS OF INCOME

45

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.
Data included in these tables are compiled from returns filed during
the calendar year 1936, irrespective of the date of death of the decedent, under revenue acts passed prior to 1926, the Revenue Act of
1926 only, and the combined provisions of the Revenue Acts of 1926
and 1932, 1926 and 1934, or 1926 and 1935. In order to maintain
comparability with the method of tabulation for preceding years, the
data for taxable returns of decedents who died after the effective date
of the Revenue Act of 1926 are classified by net estate classes which
correspond to the successive tax brackets specified in the Revenue Act
of 1926 on the basis of the net estate under the provisions of that act
rather than the provisions of the 1932, 1934, or 1935 acts.
The total number of estate tax returns filed during the calendar
year 1936 is 13,321, and the total tax liability is $196,370,000 (see
table 9, p. 64). The number of returns for citizens or residents is
11,605, of which 9.137 are taxable returns and 2,468 are nontaxable
returns. The tax liability on the 9,137 taxable returns is $195,301,000.
As compared with returns filed during the previous year, the number
of taxable returns for citizens or residents increased by 482, or 5.6
percent, and the tax liability on such returns increased $41,538,000,
or 27.0 percent.
In table 1, which is in the nature of a summary statement, the
taxable and nontaxable returns for citizens or residents are classified
according to the various revenue acts under which the returns were
filed, and the number of returns, gross estate, deductions, net estate,
and tax liability are shown for each group of returns.
In tables 2 through 7, the data for the taxable returns in table 1
are presented in more detail. Tables 2, 3, and 4 include the items of
gross estate and deductions and tables 5, 6, and 7 include the items
of net estate and tax liability. The taxable returns for resident decedents who died prior to May 11, 1934, are presented in tables 2 and 5,
the taxable returns for citizen or resident decedents who died during
the period May 11, 1934, through August 30, 1935, are presented in
tables 3 and 6, and the taxable returns for citizen or resident decedents who died on or after August 31, 1935, are presented in tables 4
and 7.
Table 8 presents a distribution by States of the returns of citizen
or resident decedents and table 9 is a historical summary of all estate
tax returns filed.

STATISTICS OF INCOME

GIFT TAX RETURNS

There are presented herein tables compiled from data reported on
gift tax returns for 1935, filed during 1936. The provisions of the
Revenue Act of 1934 apply to gifts made during the calendar year
1935. This Act imposes a tax, payable by the donor, upon the transfer of property by gift made subsequent to June 6, 1932, at rates
graduated from three-fourths of 1 percent upon net gifts of less than
$10,000 to 45 percent on the amount in excess of $10,000,000. Any
individual citizen or resident of the United States who makes any
transfer by gift which exceeds $5,000 in value to any one donee, or
regardless of value if the gift consists of a future interest, must file a
gift tax return. A nonresident alien is similarly required to file a
return if the gift consists of property situated in the United States.
The rates of tax in force for the calendar year for which the return is
filed are applied, first, to the cumulative net gifts made from June 6,
1932 (the date of the enactment of the Revenue Act of 1932), through
the end of the calendar year for which the return is filed. From the
tax so determined there is deducted an amount computed by applying
the same rates to the cumulative net gifts made up to the beginning of
such calendar year. The balance is the tax liability for the calendar
year for which the return is filed.
The following tables show form of property in which gifts were
made by net gift classes; also number of returns, total gifts before
exclusions, exclusions, total gifts after exclusions, deductions, net
gifts, and tax, classified by net gift classes, by total gift classes, and
by taxable and nontaxable returns.
The data presented are based on the returns as filed and prior to any
revision that may subsequently be made as the result of audit by the
Bureau of Internal Revenue. The tax liability shown in the tables
does not correspond with the actual collections for the same period,
as payment of the tax shown on the returns is at times deferred, and
for the further reason that any deficiency taxes or overassessments
disclosed by the audit are not reflected.
In the tables, the term "total gifts" represents the value of the
property transferred less any money consideration received in exchange, provided a donative intent existed. The tax is imposed upon
the net gifts which are obtained by subtracting from the total gifts:
(1) An exclusion of $5?000 for each donee (except in cases of future
interests);
(2) The included amount of gifts represented by charitable, public,
and similar gifts; and
(3) A specific exemption not in excess of $50,000 for each resident or
citizen donor, all of which may be taken in one year or the amount
spread over a period of years at the option of the donor.
The several forms of gifts, comprising total gifts, have been
classified under the headings of real estate, stocks and bonds, cash,
insurance, and miscellaneous. The last-named classification includes
jewelry, objects of art, copyrights on books, the forgiveness of debts,
interest in business, the assignment of a judgment, the assignment of
benefits of a contract of insurance, etc. Gifts of stocks and bonds comprise 73.2 percent of total gifts, gifts of cash amount to 8.7 percent,
real estate 7.1 percent, miscellaneous gifts 6.3 percent, and insurance
4.7 percent. Gifts for charitable, public, and similar purposes amount
to 5.9 percent of the total gifts made.

' Nontaxable returns. Specific exemptions from normal tax and surtax exceed net income. A negligible
number of nontaxable returns in net income classes of $6,000 and over is not tabulated separately.
2
An unequal number of separate returns of husbands and wives results from the use of the sample method
for returns with net income of under $5,000, as the net income of one spouse may be $5,000 or over and
that of the other spouse under $5,000 (see discussion of sample, p. 2).

STATISTICS OF INCOME
[Footnotes for table A]

1 Required to file income tax returns for all income from sources within the United States (except income
specifically exempt by law) regardless of amount, unless total tax has been paid at source.
2
(a) Under the Revenue Acts of 1913,1916, and 1917, individuals were required to file returns on a calendar
year basis, while under the Revenue Act of 1918 and subsequent acts returns are permitted for a fiscal
year other than that ending Dec. 31.
(6) For the years 1913 through 1915, a citizen or resident of the United States whose net income was
less than $20,000 and for whom a full return was made by withholding agents was not required to file a return.
(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 Act of 1928, and subsequent acts.)
(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 such exempt earned income, equals
or exceeds $5,000; or unless their net income, exclusive of such exempt earned income, equals or exceeds the
amount indicated in this table under "Individuals required to file returns." (See also (c) above.) For
1932 and subsequent years the exclusion from gross income of earned income from sources without the United
States does not apply to amounts paid by the United States or any agency thereof. (See sec. 116 (a), Revenue Acts of 1932 and 1934.) The compensation of resident alien employees of foreign governments is excluded from gross income under certain conditions. (See sec. 116 (h), Revenue Act of 1934, which subsection
(h) was added by Public No. 374, 74th Congress, and which is retroactive, subject to the statutory period of
limitation.)
3
Not applicable to citizens deriving a large portion of their gross income from sources within a possession
of the United States, 1921 and subsequent years. Such citizens are entitled to the personal exemption
shown in this table for nonresident aliens, 1921 and subsequent years.
4
Husband and wife each to file a return unless combined income is included in joint return.
s 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 April 6, 1917, for the production of articles contributing to the prosecution of the war is included to
a reasonable amount in business deductions, 1918 through 1921.
(6) Contributions to charitable and scientific organizations, etc., not exceeding 15 percent of the net
income before deducting the contributions, are deductible for 1917 and subsequent years. (For unlimited
deduction of contributions see sec. 214 (10), Revenue Acts of 1924 and 1926, and sec. 120, Revenue Act of 1928,
and subsequent acts.)
) c) Losses sustained in transactions entered into for profit but not connected with business or trade are
not deductible, 1913 through 1915. For 1916 and 1917 such losses are deductible to the extent of the aggregate income from such transactions; for 1918 through 1931, such losses are wholly deductible, excepting that
for the years 1924 through 1933 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 12H percent of the loss. (See table C, p. 139.) For the
years 1932 and 1933 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. The Revenue Act of 1932 provides that any excess
loss thus disallowed, computed without regard to any losses sustained during the preceding taxable year, is,
to an amount not in excess of the taxpayer's net income for the taxable year, considered as loss sustained in
the succeeding taxable year from sales or exchanges of stocks or bonds other than capital assets. (See sec.
23 (r) (2), Revenue Act of 1932.) However, section 218 (b) of the National Industrial Recovery Act repeals,
effective as of Jan. 1, 1933, section 23 (r) (2) of the Revenue Act of 1932, thereby limiting the application of
losses from the sale or exchange of stocks or bonds (other than capital assets) to gains from similar transactions during the same taxable year and prohibiting the carrying forward and application of such losses to
gains from similar transactions in the succeeding taxable year. Under the Revenue Act of 1932, the limitation on the deduction of losses from sale or exchange of stocks or bonds does not apply to persons dealing in
securities or carrying on the banking business. (See sec. 23 (r) (3), Revenue Act of 1932.) However, section
218 (c) of the National Industrial Recovery Act amends, effective as of Jan. 1, 1933, section 23 (r) (3) of the
Revenue Act of 1932, by removing the exemption from the stock-loss limitation allowed to persons carrying
on the banking business, thereby limiting the application of losses from the sale or exchange of stocks or
bonds (other than capital assets) to gains from similar transactions, and prohibiting the use of such losses to
reduce income from other sources. Section 218 (d) of the National Industrial Recovery Act also amends,
effective as of Jan. 1,1933, section 182 (a) of the Revenue Act of 1932 by removing the privilege of individual




STATISTICS OF INCOME

135

members of a partnership to reduce their individual net incomes by their proportionate shares of a net loss
incurred by the partnership through the sale or exchange of stocks or bonds (other than capital assets).
By the Revenue Act of 1934 the definition of capital assets is broadened to include all property held by taxpayer, whether or not connected with trade or business regardless of period held, except stock in trade,
property which would be included in inventory, or property held for sale in ordinary course of business or
trade. For 1934 and subsequent years capital losses are computed on the basis of certain percentages which
vary according to the period for which assets have been held,, and deduction of capital losses (after the percentages are applied) is limited to $2,000 after subtracting gains from such sales (such deduction not to exceed
the final net loss from such sales after the percentages are applied). (For method of computing capital gains
and losses, see table C, p. 139.) The Revenue Act of 1934 allows losses from wagering transactions only to
the extent of the gains from such transactions, and denies deductions for losses from sales or exchanges of
property, directly or indirectly, between members of a family and (except in case of distributions in liquidation) between an individual and a corporation in which such individual owns, directly or indirectly, more
than 50 percent in value of the outstanding stock. (See sec. 24 (a) (6), Revenue Act of 1934.)
(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 through 1928 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 or 1931 shall be allowed
as a deduction in computing net income for the next succeeding taxable year only. (See sec. 23 (i) and sec.
117, Revenue Act of 1932.) However, section 218 (a) of the National Industrial Recovery Act repeals,
effective as of Jan. 1, 1933, sections 23 (i) and 117 of the Revenue Act of 1932, thereby removing the privilege
of deducting from the net income for the current taxable year a net loss for the preceding taxable year. There
is 6 provision in the Revenue Act of 1934 for deduction of net loss for prior year.
no
Net income subject to normal tax is all net income after deducting the sum of:
(a) Personal exemption.
(b) Credit for dependents, 1917 and subsequent years.
(c) Dividends on stock of domestic corporations, 1913 through 1935, other than (1) corporations deriving
a large portion of their gross income from sources within a possession of the United States, 1921 and subsequent years, and (2) China Trade Act corporations, 1922 and subsequent years, and (3) corporations exempt
from tax, 1932 and subsequent years.
(d) Dividends on stock of foreign corporations receiving a certain amount of income from sources within
the United States, for the years 1913 through 1933.
(«) Income, the tax upon which has been paid or withheld for payment at the source of income for the
years 1913 through 1917.
(/) Interest not wholly tax exempt on United States obligations issued after Sept. 1,1917, which is required
to be included in gross income, and for 1934 and subsequent years, interest on obligations of instrumentalities of the United States, as defined in section 25 (a) (3), Revenue Act of 1934.
(g) Credit of 10 percent of the amount of the earned net income, but not in excess of 10 percent of the entire
net income for 1934 and subsequent years. (See table C, p. 139.) (See note 13.)
7
No provision for head of family in Revenue Act of 1913. Exemption prorated for period Mar. 1 through
Dec. 31, 1913.
s For each dependent under 18 years of age or incapable of self-support because mentally or physically
defective.
9 Nonresident aliens are allowed the personal exemption ($1,000 if single, $2,000 if married) and the credit
for each dependent ($200) only when the country of which nonresident alien is a citizen, either imposes
no income tax or allows similar credit to citizens of the United States not residing within such foreign country.
i° Tax for 1923 reduced 25 percent by credit or refund under section 1200 (a) of the Revenue Act of 1924.
11
For net incomes in excess of $5,000, personal exemption is $2,000.
1 For 1922 and subsequent years, if nonresident alien is resident of contiguous country (Canada or Mex2
ico), $400 credit allowed for each dependent.
13
For 1922 through 1933, alien residents of contiguous countries (Canada or Mexico) on net income attributable to compensation for labor or personal services actually performed in the United States, receive
benefit of normal tax rate provided for United States citizens. For 1934 and 1935 the rate of normal tax is
the same for all individuals, both resident and nonresident.
" See Joint Resolution of Congress, No. 133, approved by the President Dec. 16, 1929, reducing rates
of income tax for 1929.

* In excess of $3,000 for nonresident aliens.
2 Nonresident aliens having business with invested capital, reported only that proportion of invested
capital which net income from sources within the United States was of the entire net income.
3
Deduction (not allowable to nonresident aliens), $6,000 plus an amount equal to the same percentage of
invested capital for taxable year as the average annual pre-war income was of pre-war invested capital (not
less than 7 percent nor more than 9 percent). If not established during at least one whole year of the pre-war
period, 8 percent. If, during 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.
(See 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.
« 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 through 1931, 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. (See note 7.)
* Tax for 1923 reduced 25 percent by credit or refund under section 1200 (a) of the Revenue Act of 1924.
* For 1932 and subsequent years, the taxpayer may elect to credit the income and profits taxes paid to
foreign countries or United States possessions (with certain limitations) against the income tax liability to
the United States, or to include the entire amount of such taxes in deductions against gross income. (See
sees. 131 and 23 (c) (2), Revenue Acts of 1932 and 1934.)
s Except stock in trade, property which would be included in inventory, or property held for sale in
ordinary course of business or trade.
* The following percentages of the gains or losses recognized upon the sale or exchange of capital assets
&re taken into account in computing net income:

Section 117 applies only to gains and losses upon the sale or exchange of

PART 2

CORPORATION INCOME AND EXCESS-PROFITS TAX RETURNS
AND PERSONAL HOLDING COMPANY RETURNS
TREASURY DEPARTMENT,
OFFICE OF COMMISSIONER OF INTERNAL REVENUE,

Washington, D. C., September 23, 1938,
SIR: In accordance with the provision in the Revenue Act of 1916
and subsequent acts requiring the publication annually of statistics
with respect to the operation of the income, war-profits, and excessprofits tax laws, I have the honor to transmit herewith a report
entitled "Statistics of Income for 1935, Part 2," prepared from corporation income and excess-profits tax returns and personal holding
company returns for 1935 filed during 1936, with a historical presentation of the income and of the tax liability reported by corporations from 1909 to date. (Statistics compiled from individual income
tax returns for 1935, and estate tax returns and gift tax returns filed
during 1936, are published in Statistics of Income for 1935, Part 1.)
CORPORATION INCOME AND EXCESS-PROFITS TAX RETURNS
RETURNS TABULATED

In general, the corporation income and excess-profits tax returns
covered by this report are for the calendar year 1935. However, a
considerable number of returns are filed for a fiscal year other than the
calendar year. The returns for a fiscal year ended in the period
July, 1935, through June, 1936, are tabulated with the calendar
year returns. There are also included part-year returns for which the
greater part of the accounting period falls in 1935.
The returns for 1935 are filed under the provisions of the Revenue
Act of 1934. The major changes made by this act affecting the tabulated data for corporations are set forth in the section of this report
entitled "Revenue Acts of 1913-1934 and certain tax provisions of
the National Industrial Recovery Act (1933); also the special excise
tax under the Act of August 5, 1909/' pages 101-105.
The general tables for corporations include, in addition to aggregates for all returns, tabulations for returns with net income and with
no net income. The statistics are taken from returns as filed and
prior to any revision or adjustment that may subsequently be made as
a result of audit by the Bureau of Internal Revenue.




2

STATISTICS OF INCOME
DEFINITIONS OF GROSS INCOME, DEDUCTIONS, AND NET INCOME

In this report "gross income" corresponds to "total income" reported in item 14 on the face of the return for 1935, plus "cost of goods
sold" and "cost of operations," items 2 and 5, less "interest on Liberty
bonds, etc.," item 11. This last item has been deducted from "total
income," as this item was not included in "gross income" for prior
years. "Deductions" correspond to "total deductions" reported in
item 26 on the face of the return for 1935, plus "cost of goods sold"
and "cost of operations," items 2 and 5. All negative income reported
on the returns under sources of income are transferred to deductions
and both "gross income" and "deductions" are increased by a like
amount. "Net income" in this report means the amount of income
subject to income tax (item 30 on the face of the return) and represents
the amount of gross income, as defined above, in excess of deductions;
and "deficit" represents excess of deductions over gross income.
References to item numbers on the return relate to Form 1120, facsimile of which appears on pages 110-115.
TAX LIABILITY AND COLLECTIONS

The amount of tax liability as reported on the returns is not precisely comparable with the amount of corporate income tax collections during the calendar year in which the returns are filed. Several
factors are responsible for the difference in the taxes collected and
the tax liability reported on the returns, among which are the following:
1. The amount of tax originally reported may have been subsequently revised as the result of audit of the returns. The revisions
may result in additional assessments, thereby increasing the tax
liability, or in certificates of overassessment, representing abatements
and credits, which reduce the tax liability originally reported. An
amended return has the same effect as an audit revision.
2. Income and profits taxes paid to foreign countries or possessions
of the United States may be taken as a deduction from gross income or
applied with certain limitations as a credit against the income tax
payable to the United States. The amount of such taxes taken as a
credit by corporations against the income tax liability to the United
States has not been deducted from the amount of income tax liability
shown in the tabulations in this report. It is tabulated for the years
1925 through 1935 however, on page 8.
3. Because of being assessed against the debtor corporation, income tax paid at source on tax-free covenant bonds is included in the
corporation income tax collections, notwithstanding the fact that it
is paid on behalf of individual holders of bonds.
4. The amount of tax liability on fiscal year returns may not represent taxes collected during the calendar year in which the returns
are filed. 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 1936, collections were made of part or all
of the taxes reported on returns for fiscal years ended in period Janu-

aiy 31, 1935 (the last quarterly installment payment on which was
due on or before January 15, 1936), through September 30, 1936
(the filing of returns and the full payment or first installment payment
on which was due on or before December 15, 1936); whereas there are
excluded from the statistics in this report, as previously indicated, the
returns for fiscal years ended prior to July, 1935, and subsequent to
June, 1936.
5. Delays in payment due to financial embarrassment, 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. For similar reasons, certain amounts are uncollectible.
6. Collections in the current year include such interest and penalty
items as are received in connection with delinquent payments on
returns.
INDUSTRIAL CLASSIFICATION

Corporations are classified industrially according to their predominant business. The industrial groups, therefore, do not contain
solely corporations engaged exclusively in the industries in which they
are classified, because of the diversified activities of many corporations. The industrial classification for 1934 and 1935 is not strictly
comparable with that for prior years, by reason of the discontinuance, under the Revenue Act of 1934, of the privilege of filing consolidated returns, except by railroads. Whereas returns formerly
filed on a consolidated basis were classified according to the predominant business of the consolidated group, the industrial classification
for returns with years ended December 31, 1934, or thereafter, is
based on the predominant business of each company (except in the
case of an affiliated railroad group which exercises the privilege of
filing a consolidated return). Although the present classification is a
purer industrial distribution than was possible for consolidated returns
of affiliated groups of companies in years prior to 1934, it does not
yield a wholly clean-cut separation of industries, because of the varied
activities of particular corporations, already mentioned.
GEOGRAPHIC DISTRIBUTION

The data, although tabulated by the States in which the returns
were filed, do not represent what may be called the geographic distribution of income. There is 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, since income reported
by a corporation in one State may have been derived from sources in
other States. Returns are filed in the collection district in which the
principal place of business or principal office of the corporation is
located, with the two exceptions that consolidated returns of affiliated
groups of railroad companies are filed in the collection district of the
parent company and that the separate returns of affiliated groups of
companies which formerly filed on a consolidated basis may or may
not be filed in the same collection districts as heretofore. The
geographic distribution of the returns for the years prior to 1934 is,
therefore, not strictly comparable with that for 1934 and 1935.

STATISTICS OF INCOME
COMPARABILITY WITH PREVIOUS REPORTS

In various sections of this report reference is made to conditions
affecting the comparability of specific items from year to year, such
as changes in the provisions of the revenue acts under which the
returns for given years are filed. In particular it must be noted that
the data for 1934 and 1935 are not strictly comparable with those for
prior years. The totals as well as the separate items of assets, liabilities, receipts and deductions, the amounts of dividend payments,
gross income, net income and tax, and the classifications of the returns
by industry, geographic location, size of total assets, and returns
with net income and with no net income are all affected by the discontinuance, under the Revenue Act of 1934, of the privilege of filing
consolidated returns, except by railroads. The lack of comparability
of the information for 1934 and 1935 with that published in Statistics
of Income for 1933 and prior years is more fully discussed in Statistics
of Income for 1934, Part 2, Corporation Income and Excess-Profits
Tax Returns and Personal Holding Company Returns, pages 19-29.
INUMBER OF^RETURNS, NET INCOME OR DEFICIT, AND TAX

The number of income tax returns filed by corporations for 1935
was 533,631, as against 528,898 for 1934. Of the total number of
1935 returns, 164,231 show net income, 312,882 no net income, and
56,518 no income data. The returns with net income show an
aggregate net income of $5,164,723,225, income tax of $710,155,678,
excess-profits tax of $24,968,692 (of which $19,584 is reported on
returns with no net income), and total tax of $735,124,370. The
number of returns with net income increased 19,130, or 13.2 percent,
as compared with 1934 returns, and the net income increased $889,525,954, or 20.8 percent. The income tax increased $121,780,313,
or 20.7 percent; the excess-profits tax $17,295,934, or 225.4 percent;
and the total tax $139,076,247, or 23.3 percent. The number of
returns with no net income decreased 11,821, or 3.6 percent, as compared with similar 1934 returns, and the reported deficit of $3,468,773,525 represented a decrease of $712,253,961, or 17.0 percent.
MAJOR INDUSTRIAL GROUPS

The following table, in which returns of corporations are classified
by major industrial groups and by returns with net income, with no
net income, and with no income data, inactive corporations, shows
number of returns, gross income, deductions, net income or deficit,
and tax liability. Basic table 1, pages 32-33, show similar data for
the returns distributed by States and Territories in place of by major
industrial groups.
In analyzing the data compiled from returns classified under the
major industrial group "Finance" and under the industrial subgroup
"Life insurance—Mutual or stock companies," allowance should be
made for the two special deductions from gross income permitted life
insurance companies under paragraphs (2) and (4), subsection (a),
section 203, Revenue Act of 1934, relating to reserve funds required by
law and reserve for dividends. For returns with net income these

deductions total $36,077,136; for returns with no net income, $695,595,958. In basic tables 3 and 4, pages 40-51 and pages 52-59, respectively, the special deductions for life insurance companies are
included in "other deductions."

* Gross income and deductions correspond to total income and total deductions (items 14 and 26, respectively, on face of return) plus, in each instance, cost of goods sold and cost of operations (items 2 and 5 on
face of return). Interest received on Liberty bonds, etc. (item 11 on face of return), has been deducted
from gross income, as this item was not included in gross income for prior years.

STATISTICS OF INCOME

INCOME AND PROFITS TAXES PAID TO FOREIGN COUNTRIES OR POSSESSIONS OF
THE UNITED STATES REPORTED AS A TAX CREDIT

That portion of the income and profits taxes paid foreign countries
or possessions of the United States which was reported for tax credit
by domestic corporations for the years 1925 through 1935 is shown
below. These amounts, although tax credits, are not deducted from
the income tax liability shown in the tables in this report (see paragraph numbered 2, p. 2). The amounts of the income and profits
taxes paid to foreign countries or United States possessions which
were reported in deductions from gross income are not tabulated
separately but are included in the item "taxes paid other than income
tax
-"
The Revenue Act of 1934 provides that a domestic corporation may
credit income and profits taxes paid to foreign countries or United
States possessions against its income tax liability to the United
States or may include such taxes in deductions from gross income.
When used as a credit, the amount can not 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 taxpayer's entire net income; but when reported in deductions from
gross income, the total amount of such foreign taxes may be included.
For limitations under the various revenue acts affecting the tax
credit or the deduction from gross income of income and profits
taxes paid to foreign countries or United States possessions, see
page 103 in the section of this report entitled "Revenue Acts of 19131934 and certain tax provisions of the National Industrial Recovery
Act (1933); also the special excise tax under the Act of August 5, 1909."

DIVIDENDS PAID

Dividends paid on the capital stock of domestic corporations, as
reported on the corporation income tax returns for 1935, are: cash
$5,940,620,077, and stock $135,851,394. Cash dividends paid increased from 1934 by $1,081,240,669, or 22.3 percent, and stock
dividend payments decreased by $78,911,375, or 36.7 percent.
Amounts specifically designated as stock dividends in item 15 on
schedule L, Form 1120, are tabulated as such. All other dividends
(except liquidating) are tabulated as cash dividends, with the result
that the latter include dividends paid in other property as well as in
cash.
In basic table 1, pages 32-33, the cash and stock dividend payments are exhibited by States for returns with net income and with
no net income; in basic table 3, pages 40-51, they are recorded by




9

major industrial groups for returns in the aggregate as well as for
those with net income and with no net income; and in basic table 5,
pages 60-65, the amounts reported on returns with balance sheets,
grouped by size of total assets, are likewise shown in the aggregate
and for the same two subclasses of returns. Cash and stock dividends
paid by all corporations, and by corporations with net income and
with no net income, for the years 1922 through 1935, are as follows:

COMPILED RECEIPTS AND COMPILED DEDUCTIONS

In the table on page 11 there appears a summary of compiled
receipts and compiled deductions for the 477,113 returns of active
corporations, with segregation of those submitting and those not
submitting balance sheets. Similar statistics for all active corporations without this segregation, by major industrial groups and by
returns with net income and with no net income, are presented in
basic table 3, pages 40-51. For returns with balance sheets, the
same information is given by major industrial groups in basic table 4,
and by assets classes in basic table 5, except that in table 4 the figures
for corporations with net income and with no net income are not
combined. The tables show also compiled net profit (or compiled
net loss), net income or deficit, income tax, excess-profits tax, total
tax, and compiled net profit after deducting total tax.




10

STATISTICS OF INCOME

Compiled receipts comprise gross sales, gross receipts from operations (where inventories are not an income-determining factor), taxable interest received, net gain from sale of capital assets (real estate,
stocks, bonds, etc.), other items grouped as "other receipts," and taxexempt income items of major importance (dividends received on
capital stock of domestic corporations and interest on tax-exempt
obligations). Compiled receipts differ from gross income, as the two
terms are used in this report, only by the amount of the tax-exempt
interest included in the former item.
Compiled deductions comprise cost of goods sold, cost of operations,
•compensation of officers, rent paid on business property, interest paid,
taxes paid (excepting income tax and other disallowed taxes), bad
debts, depreciation, depletion, net loss from the sale of capital assets
(real estate, stocks, bonds, etc.), and items not classified, including
amounts of negative income (i. e., transfers of losses reported under
Income items) grouped as "other deductions." Compiled deductions
differ from deductions, as the two terms are used in this report, only
by the amount of dividends received on stock of domestic corporations
excluded from the former item.
Compiled net profit is the excess of compiled receipts over compiled
deductions, and is larger than net income, as the term is used in this
report, by the amount of tax-exempt interest and dividends received
on stock of domestic corporations. Compiled net loss is the excess of
compiled deductions over compiled receipts and is smaller than deficit,
as the term is used in this report, by the amount of tax-exempt interest
and dividends received on stock of domestic corporations.
The amounts tabulated as "cost of goods sold" and "cost of operations" (items 2 and 5, respectively, on the face of the return) include
salaries and wages, taxes, and depreciation only to the extent that these
deductions are reported as part of such costs. Amounts of these items
which may be allocable to "cost of goods sold" or to "cost of operations"
but which are reported elsewhere on the returns are tabulated under
"other deductions," in the case of salaries and wages, and under taxes
paid or depreciation in the case of the other two items. If any deduction items other than these three are reported in "cost of goods sold"
or "cost of operations," adjustment is made, and the items are transferred to their appropriate classifications.
The deduction item "compensation of officers" excludes the amounts
paid to the officers of life insurance companies which file Form 1120L.
There is no provision on Form 1120L for reporting this item, and from
the annual statement submitted with the return it is not possible to
obtain the compensation of officers separately.
The net loss from sales of capital assets is limited by law to an
amount not in excess of $2,000, after deduction of the gain from such
sales. The definition of capital assets, the limitation on net capital
loss, and the corporations which are exempt from this limitation,
effective for returns with years ended December 31, 1934, and thereafter,
are indicated in the section of this report entitled "Revenue Acts of
1913-1934 and certain tax provisions of the National Industrial
Recovery Act (1933); also the special excise tax under the Act of
August 5, 1909," page 104, footnote 5(c).

Balance sheet items not otherwise classified are tabulated under
"other assets" and "other liabilities," among which are the following:
Other assets.—Copyrights; formulas; good will; 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. Other
assets of life insurance companies include market value of real estate
and bonds in excess of book value; interest, rents, and premiums due;
and agents' balances.
Other liabilities.—Deferred and suspense items; funds held in trust;
borrowed securities; outstanding coupons and certificates; overdrafts;
and all reserves except reserves for bad debts, depreciation, and depletion. Other liabilities of life insurance companies include the net
value of outstanding policies and securities, and borrowed money.
Other liabilities of banks include deposits (time, saving, demand,
etc.) and bank notes in circulation.
The following changes in classification affect the comparability of
asset and liability data over a period of years: Prior to 1929, "investments other than tax-exempt" were included in "other assets" for all
corporations; beginning with 1929 they were segregated for corporations other than life insurance; for 1930 and subsequent years, they
are segregated for all corporations. Over a period of years shifts
appear under liabilities in the amounts reported as "common stock"
and "preferred stock," because of variation in reporting these data.
For balance sheets in which common and preferred stock are not
reported separately, the combined amount is tabulated as "common
stock." For balance sheets reporting no par stock and not reporting
capital stock value, the net worth is tabulated under "surplus and
undivided profits."

STATISTICS OF INCOME

The following table presents, by major industrial groups, the gross
capital assets, reserves for depreciation and depletion (except on
land), and net capital assets, secured by taking the difference between
these two. Gross capital assets include (1) depreciable and depletable
assets (buildings, machinery and equipment, furniture and fixtures,
delivery equipment and natural resources) and (2) land. Attention is
directed to the fact that the amounts of money in this table are in
millions of dollars.

with net income and with no net income, the number of returns,
total assets as of December 31, 1935, or the close of the fiscal year
nearest thereto, total compiled receipts, compiled net profit or net
loss, and net income or deficit. In basic table 5 there is shown, in
addition, the principal assets and liabilities and the principal items of
compiled receipts and compiled deductions. In basic table 6 selected
items of the same character are presented for corporations submitting
balance sheets, further classified by major industrial groups.

STATISTICS OF INCOME

These data are compiled from 415,205 returns filed by corporations
that submitted balance sheets. The difference between this number
and 477,205 active corporations represents returns of corporations
that did not submit balance sheets, or for which balance sheet data
were fragmentary. 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 (facsimile on pp. 110-115) provides that reserves for depreciation
and depletion 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. For a descriptive statement
of assets and liabilities, see pages 11-14, and of compiled receipts
and compiled deductions, see pages 9-10.

STATISTICS OF INCOME
CONSOLIDATED RETURNS OF RAILROADS

The privilege of filing consolidated returns, limited by the Revenue
Act of 1934 (for taxable years ended December 31, 1934, and thereafter) to affiliated groups of railroad corporations, was exercised for
1935 by 63 such groups. On consolidated returns the income tax
rate is 15% percent.
According to section 141 (d) of the Revenue Act of 1934, an affiliated
group, which has the privilege of filing a consolidated returns, means
one or more chains of corporations connected through stock ownership
with a common parent corporation if—(1) at least 95 percent of the
stock of each of the corporations (except the common parent corporation) is owned directly by one or more of the other corporations; and
(2) the common parent corporation owns directly at least 95 percent
of the stock of at least one of the other corporations; and (3) each of
the corporations is either (A) a corporation whose principal business
is that of a common carrier by railroad or (B) a corporation the assets
of which consist principally of stock in such corporations and which
does not itself operate a business other than that of a common carrier
by railroad. The term "common carrier by railroad'' includes steam
and electric railroads but excludes street, suburban, and interurban
railways, and express, refrigerator, and sleeping car companies. Thus,
the consolidated returns do not include hotels, coal mines, and other
extraneous corporations which are owned by railroads, since under the
law, separate returns must be filed for each of these corporations.
In the first following table there appears, for the 63 consolidated
returns, a summary of compiled receipts and compiled deductions,
compiled net profit or net loss, net income or deficit, income tax,
excess-profits tax, total tax, compiled net profit less total tax, and
dividends paid, classified by returns with net income and with no
net income. Assets and liabilities are shown in the second following
table for the 62 consolidated returns submitting balance sheets.
The consolidated returns of railroads, which are all calendar year
returns, are included in the text tables (except those for fiscal year
returns and part year returns) and in all the basic tables in this report.

part-year returns and to consolidated returns in which categories no
fiscal year return was filed. The tabulations include all fiscal year
returns with year ended within the period July, 1935, through June,
1936, that were received by the Statistical Section prior to the final
tabulation of the Statistics of Income data.
The number of returns, net income or deficit, income tax and excessprofits tax are tabulated for fiscal year returns with net income and
with no net income. In the first following table these data are classified by the month in which the fiscal year ended, and in the second
following table by the size of the net income or deficit.

The returns filed by corporations showing income for less than 12
months represent reorganizations, newly organized businesses, liquidating corporations, and changes from calendar year to fiscal year basis
or vice versa. These returns are included in all text and basic tables
in this report. The part-year returns tabulated herein represent
those in which the greater part of the income period was in 1935.

HISTORICAL SUMMARIES

A resume of the corporation returns showing number of returns,
gross income, net income, deficit, tax, and the items of compiled
receipts, compiled deductions, assets and liabilities is shown in the
following tables. Attention is called to the fact that the amounts of
money in the tables on pages 23-26 are in millions of dollars.

STATISTICS OF INCOME

Corporation returns distributed by States and Territories, for the
years 1926 through 1935, showing number of returns, gross income,
net income, deficit, and tax, for returns with net income and with no
net income are presented in basic table 8, pages 89-99. Similar data
are shown by major industrial groups for the years 1926 through 1935
in basic table 7, pages 84-88.
The data for 1934 and 1935 are not strictly comparable with those
for prior years as a result of the extensive discontinuance of the privilege of filing consolidated returns under the Revenue Act of 1934.
(See section of this report entitled "Comparability with previous
reports/ 7 p. 4, and Statistics of Income for 1934, Part 2, Corporation
Income and Excess-profits Tax Returns and Personal Holding Company Returns, pp. 19-29.)

STATISTICS OF INCOME

PERSONAL HOLDING COMPANY RETURNS

A personal holding company is denned under the provisions of section 351 of the Revenue Act of 1934 as any corporation (other than the
specifically exempt corporations indicated below), if—(A) 80 percent
or more of its gross income for the taxable year was derived from
royalties, dividends, interest, annuities, and (except in the case of
regular dealers in stock or securities) gains from the sale of stock or
securities, and, (B) at any time during the last half of the taxable
year more than 50 percent in value of its outstanding stock was owned,
directly or indirectly, by or for not more than five individuals. Corporations specifically exempt from this tax are as follows: (1) Corporations exempt from income taxation (as listed in section 101 of the
Revenue Act of 1934); (2) banks and trust companies incorporated
under the laws of the United States or of any State or Territory, a
substantial part of whose business is the receipt of deposits; (3) life
insurance companies; and (4) surety companies.
The term "adjusted net income" means the net income computed
without deducting dividends received (which are allowed as a deduction for income tax purposes), but minus the sum of: (a) Federal
income, war-profits, and excess-profits taxes and foreign taxes (not
deducted in computing net income on Form 1120), paid or accrued
during the taxable year, but not including surtax on personal holding
companies; (6) contributions or gifts to charitable, educational, and
other similar organizations, which are not allowed as a deduction for
income tax purposes; and (c) losses from sales or exchanges of capital
assets which are disallowed as a deduction by section 117(d) of the
Revenue Act of 1934.
The term "undistributed adjusted net income" means the "adjusted
net income" minus the sum of: (a) 20 percent of the excess of the
adjusted net income over the amount of dividends received from personal holding companies; (b) amounts used or set aside to retire indebtedness incurred prior to January 1, 1934, if such amounts are
reasonable with reference to the size and terms of such indebtedness;
and (c) dividends paid during the taxable year.
The act imposes upon personal holding companies an additional
graduated surtax of 30 percent of the undistributed adjusted net income not over $100,000, plus 40 percent of the amount over $100,000.
Personal holding companies are subject to this surtax on Form 1120H
(see facsimile on pp. 120-123) in addition to the corporation income
tax on Form 1120.
The personal holding company returns filed by corporations on
Form 1120H, for the calendar year 1935 and for fiscal years ended in
the period July, 1935, through June, 1936, numbered 5,075. There
were 430 returns which showed undistributed adjusted net income and
a surtax. No surtax liability was shown for 4,645 personal holding
companies, which were divided into (a) 2,761 companies with no undistributed adjusted net income, of which 544 companies reported
that each shareholder included his pro rata share of the adjusted net
income of the corporation on his individual income tax return and
2,217 companies reported dividends distributed to shareholders and
other credits in excess of adjusted net income and (6) 1,884 companies
with no adjusted net income.




28

STATISTICS OF INCOME

The accompanying tables are based on the returns as filed and prior
to any revision or adjustment that may subsequently be made as a
result of audit by the Bureau of Internal Revenue.
For returns Form 1120H of personal holding companies (a) with
adjusted net income (divided into returns with surtax liability and
the two types with no surtax liability) and (b) with no adjusted net
income, the following table presents: number of returns, receipts, deductions not allowed on Form 1120, adjusted net income, adjusted
net loss, credits, and surtax. In each case the returns were separated
into those with net income and with no net income on Form 1120.
In the tables throughout this report compiled from corporation income
and excess-profits tax returns for 1935, the returns filed by these companies on Form 1120 were merged in the various industrial classifications according to the predominant business activity of the corporation
as reported on that form.
The 430 returns of personal holding companies which report surtax
liability show adjusted net income of $22,356,267 and dividends paid
of $9,087,618, or 40.6 percent of their adjusted net income. The undistributed adjusted net income subject to surtax is $8,785,604 and
the surtax liability is $2,968,620. Of the 430 returns, 257 show net
income on Form 1120. The surtax liability on Form 1120H for these
257 returns is $1,694,568. The surtax liability for the remaining 173
returns with undistributed adjusted net income but with no net income
on Form 1120 is $1,274,052.
It is not possible to determine the amount of the income tax liability
of the individual shareholders on Form 1040 with respect either to
the pro rata shares of the adjusted net income shown on Form 1120H,
which were reported on Form 1040, or to the dividends distributed
by the personal holding companies to the shareholders.

1 Gross income and deductions correspond to total income and total deductions (items 14 and 26, respectively, on face of return) plus, in each instance, cost of goods sold and cost of operations (items 2 and
5 on face of return). Interest received on Liberty bonds, etc. (item 11 on face of return), has been deducted from gross income as this item was not included in gross income for prior years.
2
Includes excess-profits tax of $19,584 on returns with no net income for income tax purposes. The credit
for interest received on certain obligations of the United States and its instrumentalities, which is allowed
against net income in the computation of the income tax, is not allowed against net income in the computation of the excess-profits tax. (See article l(d) of Treasury Decisions 4469, "Regulations relating to the
excess-profits tax imposed by section 702 of the Revenue Act of 1934.")

Gross income corresponds to total income, as reported on face of return, plus "cost of goods sold" and "cost of operations " Interest received on Liberty bonds, etc. (item 11 on
face 2of return), has been deducted from gross income, as this item was not included in gross income for prior years.
Includes excess-profits tax of $19,584 on returns with no net income for income tax purposes. The credit for interest received on certain obligations of the United States and its
instrumentalities, which is allowed against net income in the computation of the income tax, is not allowed against net income in the computation of the excess-profits tax. (Bee
article l(d) of Treasury Decision 4469, "Regulations relating to the excess-profits tax imposed by section 702 of the Revenue Act of 1934.")

The credit for interest received on certain obligations of the United States and its instrumentalities, which is allowed against net income in the computation of the income tax, is not allowed against
net income in the computation of the excess-profits tax. (See article 1 (d) of Treasury Decision 4469, "Regulations relating to the excess-profits tax imposed by section 702 of the Revenue Act of 1934.")

* Changes in the revenue acts affecting the comparability of statistical data from income tax returns of
corporations are summarized on pp. 101-105.

Includes returns with no income data—inactive corpora'ions.

Gross income corresponds to total income as reported on face of return, plus "Cost of goods sold" and
"Cost of operations." For 1934 and 1935, interest received on Liberty bonds, etc., has been deducted from
gross income, as this i'em was not included in gross income for prior years.
* The excess-profits tax for 1933 became effective June 30, 1933, under the tax provisions of the National
Industrial Recovery Act. Under the provisions of the Revenue Act of 1934, a small amount of excess-profits
tax for 1934 and 1935 appears on returns with no net income for income tax purposes. The credit for interest
received on certain obligations of the United states and its instrumentalities, which is allowed against net
income in the computation of the income tax, is not allowed against net income in the computation of the
excess-profits tax. (See article 1 (d), Treasury Decision 4469, ''Regulations relating to excess-profits tax
imposed by sec. 702 of the Revenue Act of 1934.")
* Prior to 1927, returns with no income data—inactive corporations—were included with returns with
no net income.
« Revised. For revised figures for 1927, see Statistics of Income for 1928, p. 329: for revised figures for 1928,
see Statistics of Income for 1930, p. 239; for revised figures for 1930, see Statistics of Income for 1931, pp. 32 and

Includes returns showing no income data—inactive corporations.
3
Gross income corresponds to total income as reported on face of return, plus ''cost of goods sold" and
"cost of operations." For 1934 and 1935 interest on Liberty bonds, etc., has been deducted from gross income, as this item was not included in gross income for prior years.
4
The excess-profits tax for 1933 became effective June 30, 1933, under the tax provisions of the National
Industrial Recovery Act. Under the provisions of the Revenue Act of 1934, a small amount of excessprofits tax for 1934 and 1935 appears on returns with no net income for income-tax purposes. The credit for
interest received on certain obligations of the United States and its instrumentalities, which is allowed
against net income in the computation of the income tax, is not allowed against net income in the computation of the excess-profits tax. (See article 1 (d), Treasury Decision 4469, "Regulations relating to excess
profits tax imposed by section 702 of the Revenue Act of 1934.")
5
Prior to 1927, returns showing no income data—inactive corporations—were included with returns
showing no net ncome.

All corporations are required to file returns regardless of amount of net income or loss, except those
exempted by specific provisions of the Law. 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 that ending Dec. 31, except that under the Act of 1921 and subsequent acts life insurance companies are 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 from sources within the United States, regardless of amount. From Jan. 1, 1918 through
Dec. 31,1921, personal service corporations were treated as partnerships. Prior and subsequent to said dates
such corporations were taxed as other corporations. For 1934 and subsequent years, personal holding companies (as defined in sec. 351 (b), Revenue Act of 1934) are required to file returns for surtax, in addition to
the corporation returns for income and excess profits tax. (For rates, see following page.)
2 Specific credit allowable to domestic corporations with net income of $25,000 or less, 1921 through 1931,.
except domestic corporations deriving a large portion of their gross income from sources within a possession
of the United States, 1928 and subsequent years; not allowable to foreign corporations, 1918 and subsequent
years.

For footnote 1, see p. 102.
For the years 1918 through 1921, 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 Twithin a possession of the United States, is computed by comparison with representative corporations w hose 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 7.)
4
For the years 1917 through 1921,the amount of excess-profits tax (and for 1918 through 1921, the war-profits
tax) was allowed as a credit in arriving at the net income subject to income tax; for 1933 through 1935, no
credit was allowed for excess-profits tax in arriving at net income subject to income tax, nor was a credit
allowed for income tax in computing at net income subject to excess-profits tax.
5
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 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
of the Revenue Acts of 192L 1924, and 1926 and sec. 251 of the Revenue Act of 1928 and subsequent 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 April 6, 1917, for the production of articles contributing to the prosecution of the war, is included to a
reasonable amount in business deductions, 1918 through 1921.
(6) Dividends on stock of all corporations liable to the tax imposed by the Revenue Acts of 1909,1917, and
1918 are deductible; under the Revenue Acts of 1913 and 1916, dividends were not deductible. Under the
Revenue Acts of 1921 through 1932, dividends on stock of domestic corporations (other than (1) those deriving
a large portion of their gross income from sources within a possession of the United States, 1921 and subsequent years, (2) China Trade Act Corporations, 1922 and subsequent years, and (3) corporations exempt
from tax, 1932 and subsequent years) as well as dividends on stock of foreign corporations receiving a certain
amount of income from sources within the United States, are deductible. (Such deductible dividends are
not included in the amount of gross income shown in "Statistics of Income" for 1918 due to the fact that on
the return these dividends were designated as nontaxable income.) Under the Revenue Act of 1934, dividends on stock of domestic corporations (other than (1), (2), and (3) above) are deductible, but dividends on
stock of foreign corporations are not deductible. For deduction of dividends paid on preferred stock, by
certain incorporated banks and insurance companies, to the United States, or to any instrumentality thereof
which is exempt from Federal income taxation, see section 121 of the Revenue Act of 1934, which section was
added by Public, No. 374, 74th Congress.
(c) Losses sustained during a taxable year and not compensated for by insurance or otherwise, are entirely
deductible, except that for 1932 and 1933 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. The Revenue Act of 1932 provides that any excess
loss thus disallowed, computed without regard to any losses sustained during the preceding taxable year,
is, to an amount not in excess of the taxpayer's net income for the taxable year, considered as loss sustained
in the succeeding taxable year from sales or exchanges of stocks or bonds other than capital assets. The
limitation on the deduction of losses from sales or exchanges of stocks or bonds does not apply to dealers in
securities banks, or trust companies. (See sec. 23 (r), Revenue Act of 1932.) However, section 218 (b) of
the National Industrial Recovery Act repeals, effective as of Jan. 1,1933, section 23 (r) (2) of the Revenue Act
of 1932, thereby limiting the application of losses from the sale or exchange of stocks or bonds (other than
capital assets) to gains from similar transactions during the same taxable year and prohibiting the carrying
forward and application of such losses to gains from similar transactions in the succeeding taxable year. By
the Revenue Act of 1934, the definition of capital assets is broadened to include all property held by the taxpayer, whether or not connected with trade or business, regardless of period held, except stock in trade,
property which would be included in inventory, or property held for sale in ordinary course of business or
trade. For 1934 and subsequent years, corporations are permitted to deduct capital losses to the extent of
$2,000 after subtracting the amount of capital gains (such deduction not to exceed the actual net capital loss),
except that this limitation does not apply to losses sustained by certain banks and trust companies on the
sale of certain bonds, etc. (See sec. 117 (d), Revenue Act of 1934.)
(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 through 1928 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 or 1931 shall be allowed as a
deduction in computing net income for one succeeding taxable year only. However, section 218 (a) of the
National Industrial Recovery Act repeals, effective as of Jan. 1, 1933, sections 23 (i) and 117 of the Revenue
Act of 1932, thereby removing the privilege of deducting from the net income for the current taxable year a
net loss for the preceding taxable year. There is no provision in the Revenue Act of 1934 for deduction of
net loss for prior year.

« The $3,000 credit not allowable to foreign corporations.
" Invested capital within the meaning of the statute is the capital actually paid in to the corporation by
the stockholders, plus the earned surplus and/or undivided profits (exclusive of profits for the current year)
and exclusive of inadmissible assets as defined in the revenue acts. (See sec. 207, Revenue Act of 1917, and
sees. 325 and 326, 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 through 1921, 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 3.)
s 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.
9
The $3,000 credit not allowable to domestic corporations deriving a large portion of their gross income from
sources within a possession of the United States.
10
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 through 1931 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. (See note 16.)
!1
For 1922 and subsequent years, corporations are allowed, as a credit against net income for income tax
purposes, the amount received as interest upon obligations of the United States which is required to be included in gross income (e. g., see sec. 236 (a) ,Revenue Act of 1924). For 1922 and subsequent years China
Trade Act corporations are entitled to a specific credit. (See sec. 264 (a), China Trade Act, 1922.)
1 Not allowable to China Trade Act corporations for 1922 and subsequent years.

13
Income of domestic insurance companies, exclusive of mutual companies other than life, taxable at 12H
percent.
u See joint resolution of Congress No. 133, approved by the President Dec. 16, 1929, reducing rates of
income tax for 1929.
is The rate of tax on consolidated returns for 1932 and 1933 is 14H percent, except for returns with fiscal year
ended in 1934 on which the tax attributable to 1934 is at the rate of 14% percent. (See sec. 218 (e), National
Industrial Recovery Act.) The rate of tax on consolidated returns with year beginning on, or after January 1, 1934 is 15% percent. Under the Revenue Act of 1934, only railroad corporations are permitted to file
consolidated returns.
!6
For 1932 and subsequent years, the taxpayer may elect to credit the income and profits taxes paid toforeign countries or United States possessions (with certain limitations) against the income tax liability to
the United States, or to include the entire amount of such taxes in deductions against gross income. (Seesees. 131 and 23 (c), (2), Revenue Acts of 1932, and 1934.)
17
See note 5 (c) and (d) and note 15.
18
For 1934 and subsequent years, interest on Liberty Bonds, etc., which is required to be included in gross
income, is included in net income for excess profits tax computation. (See note 11.)
i» If corporation was not in existence during the whole of at least one calendar year during the pre-war
period, the credit (with certain exceptions) shall be the sum of $3,000 and an amount equal to the same
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.)
NOTE.-—For the year 1917 there was also a tax of 10 percent upon that portion of the total net income
remaining undistributed six 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 through 1920, a corporation that permitted an unreasonable accumulation of prof ts
was not subject to the ordinary corporation income tax, but the individual stockholders were taxed upon
their proportionate shares of its net income.
For the years 1921 through 1928, 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 unreasonableaccumulation of profits. Trr's addit'onal tax was increased to 50 percent for the years 1924 through 1933. with
the provision for 1926 and subsequent years that the additional tax shall not apply if all the shareholders of
the corporation include in their gross income their entire distributive shares, whether distributed or not,
of the net income of the corporation for such year.
For 1934 and 1935 every corporation improperly accumulating surplus (other than a personal holding company) is subject to a tax on the adjusted net income at the rate of (1) 25 percent of the amount of the adjusted
net income not in excess of $100,000, plus (2) 35 percent of the amount of the adjusted net income in excess of
$100,000.

INSTRUCTIONS
1. SURTAX ON PERSONAL HOLDING COMPANIES
Section 351 of Title IA of the Revenue Act of 1934 imposes an additional
graduated income tax or surtax upon corporations classified as personal holding
companies. Corporations so classified are exempt from the surtax on corporations improperly accumulating surplus imposed by section 102 of Title I of
the Revenue Act of 1934, but are not exempt from the other taxes imposed by
that title. Unlike the surtax imposed by section 102, the surtax imposed by
section 351 applies to all personal holding companies defined as such in Instruction 2 regardless of whether or not they wore formed or availed of to accumulate
gains and profits for the purpose of avoiding surtax upon shareholders.
2. CLASSIFICATION OF A PERSONAL HOLDING COMPANY
A personal holding company is defined as any corporation (other than a
corporation specifically exempt), first, 80 percent or more of whose gross income
for the taxable year was derived from royalties, dividends, interest, annuities,
and gains from the sale of stock or securities; and, seconfl, more than 50 percent
in value of whose outstanding stock was owned, directly or indirectly, at any
time during the last half of the taxable year by or for not more than five individuals. The only corporations specifically exempt from this tax are as follows:
(1) Corporations exempt from taxation under section 101 of Title 1; (2) banks
and trust companies (incorporated under the laws of the United States, or of
anv State or Territory), a substantial pivrt of whose business is the receipt of
deposits; (3) lifo insurance companies; and (4) surety companies.
It is the nature of the gross income and the ownership of the outstanding stock
which determine the classification aa a personal holding company, and the several
conditions with respect to both must be satisfied to bring a corporation within
the classification. Gross income must be determined for the entire taxable year
and the ownership of the stock outstanding must be determined according to its
a personal holding company for some years and not for other years. In that
c&se, the Burtax liability shall be determined under section 351 only for the years
in which the corporation comes within the classification aa a personal holding
company, while ; I e liability for surtax as to the other yeara will depend upon
whether the corporation comes within the provisions of section 102 with respect
The gross income for purposes of section 351 means the gross income as computed under sections 22,204, and 231 and the regulations thereunder, for purposes
of the taxes imposed by Title I. Accordingly, items excluded from the gross
income under Title I are not to be included in determining gross income under
Bectioo 351. Gross income is not synonymous with grosa receipts. For example,
in the case of a sale or exchange of property, it includes only the excess of the
amount realized therefrom over the adjusted basis provided for in section
113 (b). It does not include gains which are not recognized under section
112 (b). In the case of a corporation reporting on the installment basU, it
includes only that portion of the gain returnable as income under section 44.
In the case of a manufacturing, merchandising, or mining business, "gross
income" means the total sales, less the cost of goods sold, plus any income from
investments and from incidental or outside operations or sources. In determining
gross income, subtractions should not be made for depreciation, depletion,
sclliDg expenses, or losses, or for items not ordinarily used in computing the cost
of goods sold. Sales of capital assets as defined in section 117 mu3t be treated
as separate transactions afid only those sales which individually resulted in
profits shall be considered In determining the gains derived from such source.
Gains from all transactions involving stock in trade, etc., are determined for
the taxable year as a whole instead of separately.
3. NATURE OF GROSS INCOME
From the standpoint of the nature of the gross income, a corporation comes
within the definition of a personal holding company for any taxable year when
80 percent or more of its gross income for such taxable year was derived from
the following sources;




(o) Royalties.—Tha term "royalties" includes amounts received for the use
of or for the privilege of using patents, copyrights, secret processes and formulas,
good will, trade marks, trade brands, franchises, and other like property. It
doe3 not include rents, nor overriding rovalties received bv an operating company. As used in this paragraph the term "overriding royalties " means amounts
received from a sublessee by the operating company which originally iea&ed and
developed the natural resource property in respect of which such overriding
royalties are paid.
(6) Dividends—The term "dividends" means dividends as defined in section
115 (a). It does not include stock dividends, liquidating dividends, or other
capital distributions referred to in section 115 (c), (d), and (f).
(c) Interest.—The term "interest" means any amounts received for the uae
of borrowed money which are includible in gross income under Title I.
(d) Annuities.—The term "annuities" refers only to annuities to the extent
inciudible in the computation of gross income under Title I.
(e) Gains from, the sale of stock or securities.—The term "gains from the sale
of stock or securities" applies to all gains (including gains from liquidating
dividends and other distributions from capital) from the sale or exchange of
stock or securities inciudible in gross income under Title I. The term "stock
or securities" includes shares or certificates of stock or interest in any corporaorganization classified as a corporation by the Act), certificates of interest or
participation in any profit sharing agreement or in any oil, gas, or other mineral
royalty or lease, collateral trust certificates, voting trust certificates, stock
rights or warrants, bonds, debentures, certificates of indebtedness, notes, c^r
trust certificates, bills of exchange, obligations issued by or on behalf of a
Government, State, Territory, or a political subdivision thereof, etc.
In the case of "regular dealers in stock or securities" the term does not innormal course of business. The term "regular dealers in stock or securities"
means corporations with an established place of business regularly engaged in
the purchase of stock or Becurities and their resale to customers. A corporation
which is a regular dealer in stock or securities but which buys or sells or holds
stock or securities for investment cr speculation ia not a dealer with respect to
such stock or securities.
4. STOCK OWNERSHIP
From the standpoint of the ownership of the outstanding stock, a corporation
comes within the definition of a personal holding company for atjy taxable
year if at any time during the last half of the taxable year more than 50 percent
in value of the stock outstanding was owned, directly or indirectly, by or for
not more than five individuals. The ownership of the stock shall be determined
in accordance with the following rules:
(a) All forms and classes of stock, however denominated, which represent.
the interests of the shareholders, members, or beneficiaries in the corporation
shall be taken into consideration. For the purpose of determining such ownership, the Act provides that stock ownod, directly or indirectly, by a corporation,
partnership, estate or trust shall be considered a3 being owned proportionately
by its shareholders, partners, or beneficiaries.
(6) The stock outstanding only during the last half of the taxable year shall
be taken into consideration. However, and in the event of any change iu
the stock outstanding during such period, whether in the number of shares or
aticn, since a corporation comes within the classification if the statutory conditions with respect to stock ownership are present at any time during the period
specified.
(c) The stock owned by an individual shall include all stock in tho same
corporation owned, directly or indirectly, by the members of his family. For
this purpose the family of an individual shall include only hia brothers and
sisters (whether by the whole or half blood), spouse, ancestors, and lineal de -

123

STATISTICS OF INCOME
eeendanta. The Act further provides that this role shall be applied in such
manner as to produce the smallest possible number of individuals owning, directly or indirectly, more than 50 percent in value of the outstanding stock.
For example, the M corporation at some time during the last half of the taxable
year had 1,800 shares of outstanding stock, 450 of which were held by various
individuals having no relationohip to one another and the remaining 1,350 were
held by 50 shareholders having the relationships and individual shareholdings
as follows:

ment must be made out of earnings for the taxable year before distribution of
such earnings may be made. The reasonableness of the deduction shall be
determined upon existing conditions known at the close of the taxable year.
The fact that amounts have not been used or set aside in prior years will not
entitle the taxpayer to deduct in any taxable year a greater amount than would
otherwise be allowable. Amounts paid or set aside to discharge current liabilities
for expenses, salaries, wages, taxes, interest, the purchase of any property for
resale, dividends, balances due brokers, bank or other commercial loans, or any
other current liability (whether represented by negotiable instruments, balances
on account, or otherwise) do not constitute allowable deductions. This is true
as respects liabilities which are payable at the convenience of either the debtor
or the creditor, or on the demand of either.
No deduction will be permitted with respect to any item for which a deduction
is otherwise allowable under Title IA or Title I of the Revenue Act of 1934 or
under any applicable prior income tax act.

In the above example by applying the statutory rule, fivo individuals owned
more than 50 percent of tho outstanding stock aa follows;
A (including AF AW, Ah, AS, ASHS)
B (including EF, EW, B6, 3S, BSUS)
CW (including C, CS, CWF, CWB) . . . .
DB (including D, L'F, DBW)...

A resolution, specifying the particular indebtedness to be retired, the plan of
retirement, and the spepific assets to be used for that purpose, passed by the
board of directors or corresponding authority during the taxable period or prior
thereto, will be considered sufficient to meet the statutory requirement that the
amounts muet be "s^t aside/' A certified copy of such resolution must accompany this return.
The burden of proof will rest upon the taxpayer to sustain the deduction
claimed. Therefore, the taxpayer must furuwb the information required by
Schedule E of this return and such othor information as the Commissioner may
joquirs in substantiation of the deduction claimed.

It will be noted that individual A represents the obvious case where the head
of the family owns the bulk of the family stock and naturally is the head of
the group. Individual B represents the case where lie is still head of the group
because of the ownership of 3tock by his immediate family. Individuals C
and D represent cases where the individuals fell in groups headed in C's case
by his wife and in D's case by his brother because of the preponderance of
holdings on the p?^t of relatives by marriage. Individual Hi repreaents the caao
where the preponderant holdings of others eliminate that individual from the
group.
(d) In determining whether the statutory conditions with respect to stock
ownership are prenent'at any time during the period specified, the phrasa "iu
value" shall, in the light cf all the circumstances, be dccined the value of the
corporate stock outstanding at such time (not including treasury efeock). This
value may be determined upon the basis of the company's net worth, earring
and dividend paring capacity, appreciation of assets, and any other 'actor
having a bearing upon the valve of tho stock. If a value of stock is U3ed
whit'li is greatlv nt v&tlanco witn that reflected by the coirpor&te books, the
evidence upon which such valuation is based should be filed with the return.
