Treasury, principally by wholly owned Government corporations, for retirement of capital stock and disposition of earnings are excluded from
both receipts and expenditures. Further Information on these capital

the Treasury, page 332.

Excludes oollectlons for credit to certain truat accounts for lalaM
possessions; Includes corporation Income tax on Alaska Railroad (repealed by Public Law 386, approved June 10, 1952, for taxable years
ending after that date).
Differences between the afflounta of internal revenue reported hy the
Internal Revenue Service as collections for given periods and the
amounts reported In Treasury statements as budget receipts for the
same periods arise because of differences in the time when paymenta
are Included In the respective reports. Tax payments are Included
in budget receipts when they are reported as credits to the account
of the Treasurer of the United States.
Prior to July 1954, they
were included in Internal Revenue Service collection reports after
the returns to which they applied had been received In Internal
revenue offices. Ualer arrangements begun In 1950 with withheld
Income tax and old-age Insurance taxes and later extended to railroad retirement taxes and many excises, these taxes are paid
currently Into Treasury depositaries and the depositary receipts,
ae evidence of such payment, are attached to quarterly returns to
the Internal Revenue Service.
Under this procedure, the payments
are Included In budget receipt* In the month In which the depositary
receipts are Issued to the taxpayers. Revised accounting procedures

i/

effective July 1, 1954, extended the saas practice to Internal
Revenue Service collection reports.
Monthly figures include old-age Insurance tax on self employment
Income, which la levied and collected as part of the ioilvldual
income tax beginning with the taxable year I951. Fiscal
year
figures exclude this tax, on the basis of estimates beginning
1952 (see footnote 4), and it is included uiller "Old-age insurance
taxes".

Under revised accounting procedures effective JuXj 1, 19"^, tax
payments made to banks under the depositary receipts system are
included in Internal Revenue Service reports of collections In the
month In which the depositary receipts are Issuea inscead of the
month In which tax returns supported by the depositary receipts
are received In internal revenue offices, as was the previous
practice. The "Undistributed depositary receipts" Included In
the collections represent the amount of depositary receipts Issued during the period less the amount received with returns.
In
the case of excise taxes, it Is not possible to classify the
depositary receipts by type of tax until the returns are received.
Accordln^gly, the amount of such imdlstrlbuted depositary receipts
Is Included only In the total of excise taxes.
Collections In fiscal year 195** are not comparable month by month
with those In the prior year because of the Institution of quarterly retuma, effective with the quartt-r beginning July 1*^5^.
