1 THE FUTURE OF SALES TAX REVENUE Presented by Adam Fulton, Senior Economic Associate The Outlook for Sales Taxes State governments rely on state sales taxes for more than a fifth of their revenue Economic and demographic changes are eroding the state sales tax base Aging population Changing patterns in consumption Differences in prices Internet sales vs. brick-and-mortar stores Policy makers must decide how to respond 1

2 The Role of State Sales Tax Sales taxes are a significant source of revenue for states. Sales and gross receipts accounted for one-fifth of states own tax revenue in Source: Tax Policy Center History of State Sales Taxes Great Depression inspired many states to adopt sales taxes Falling corporate income and property tax receipts prompted states to seek new revenue sources Mississippi and Kentucky are credited with pioneering the retail sales tax in the early 1930s By 1938, 21 states used the sales tax; other states followed after World War II Sources: Dr. Edward T. Howe, Siena College & Dr. Donald J. Reeb, SUNY-Albany; Dr. William F. Fox, University of Tennessee 2

3 An Array of Options Forty-five states and the District of Columbia collect general sales taxes Alaska, Delaware, Montana, New Hampshire, and Oregon are the exceptions Rates vary from 2.9 percent in Colorado to 7.5 percent in California Thirty-six states (including Alaska) permit sales taxes at the county, municipal, or special district level Maximum local rates range from 0.25 percent in Mississippi to 7.5 percent in Alabama Source: Tax Policy Center Sales tax dilemmas Viewed as a regressive tax Low-income households pay at higher proportion of sales taxes compared to income. Many states offer exemptions for certain purchases, including food and prescription drugs Some states tax food but offer rebates or tax credits to low-income families As U.S. shifted from manufacturing to service economy, some states extended sales tax to certain services State policies for taxing services varies greatly Source: Tax Policy Center 3
