Taxpayers May Use Sales Tax Table Guide
Virginia taxpayers may use a state sales tax table as a guide in preparing their 1967 Federal income tax returns. The table is included in the instruction booklet mailed to taxpayers, according to James P. Boyle, District Director of Internal Revenue. The table is based on consumer spending patterns and shows the average amount of state sales tax paid by Virginia residents. It may be used by taxpayers who itemize their Federal income tax deductions.
State sales tax on automobiles purchased is not included in the table. Taxpayers who purchased an automobile may add deductible sales tajes paid on the purchase to the amount shown in the table. Taxpayers are not required to use the table, Mr. Boyle pointed out. The table is furnished as a guide for the convenience of taxpayers who want to deduct a "standard" amount for state tax in lieu of keeping detailed records to substantiate the actual state sales taxes paid during the year.
