Included in the refund amounts above are refunds relating to the alternative fuel vehicle (AFV) income tax
credit. In July 2007, the department did not issue any individual or corporate income tax refunds for alternative
fuel-related credits.

Federal Employee Retirement Contribution Project (FERC)
Kerr vs. ADOR or FERC, a Supreme Court tax settlement case has resulted in the distribution of 1,790
refunds to individual income taxpayers during July 2007. These refunds totaled $1,332,740* for an average
refund of $745. Attorney payments are not included in the refund amount and total $333,185 for the month.
Refunds issued as a result of the FERC case are not included in the total refunds listed in neither the
“Individual Income Tax Receipts” section above nor the “Average Individual Income Tax Refund” section
later mentioned in this publication.
*The amount shown as refunded may differ from AFIS totals due to timing issues.

July 2007 Tax Facts

Year-Over-Year Comparison of Resident Taxpayers
Comparisons of Federal Adjusted Gross Income (FAGI) and tax liability growth between two tax years can
be made by using data from taxpayers who have filed for both calendar years and have maintained the
same filing status for both years. The Department of Revenue has received 1,664,162 returns in calendar
year 2007 for tax year 2006 from filers who also have returns on record from calendar year 2006 with the
same marital status. On average, these filers experienced a 6.6% increase in FAGI and a 1.9% increase in
tax liability. More specifically, 38.7% of these filers experienced a decrease in tax liability; on average a
decrease of 20.3% in FAGI with a corresponding average decrease in tax liability of 40.8%. Filers with an
increase in tax liability totaled 832,764 or 50.0%, with an average FAGI increase of 36.3% and an average
tax liability increase of 59.7%.

"New" Filers in Calendar Year 2007
Table 1 attached to this report, presents the number of "new" returns filed in calendar year 2007. "New"
returns are for those filers who did not file in the previous calendar year. Therefore, these filers could be
new full-year residents of Arizona, or they may be newly required to file an individual income tax return.
(The filer may not have earned enough income in the previous year to file, such as a recent graduate just
entering the work force.) The table indicates that 285,831 "new" returns have been filed thus far in 2007,
representing approximately 343,638 persons, not including dependents. The average Federal Adjusted
Gross Income is $23,058 with an average tax liability of $381. The right half of this table presents
characteristics of the filers represented on the returns. Of all "new" returns, 16.1% had a married filing joint
filing status, 7.1% claimed a 65 and Over Exemption and 34.8% claimed dependents.

Individual Income Tax Estimated Payments
Taxpayers are required to make estimated payments if their Arizona gross income will exceed $75,000, in
an amount which will represent unpaid tax liability at the end of the taxpayer's tax year. Total estimated
payments paid with form 140ES for tax year 2006 received through July 2007 were $703.1 million, for an
average of $2,992. An additional $136.0 million in estimated payments came from 2005 tax returns that
applied their refunds as a 2006 estimated payment, for an average of $3,090. Estimated payments received
through July 2007 for tax year 2007 are as follows:

July 2007 Tax Facts

Withholding
Withholding payments are received from employers and applied towards a specific quarter for the
designated year. Information is gathered for 15 months for any given quarter. For example, from 2005
through September 2006, $711.1 million was received for the third quarter of 2005. The latest complete
quarter (15 months of information has been compiled) is the second quarter of 2006, which shows an
increase of 24.0% in withholding payments over the second quarter of 2005. Growth in quarters for which
information is still being gathered is as follows:
3rd Quarter 2006
4th Quarter 2006

1st Quarter 2007
2nd Quarter 2007
3rd Quarter 2007

4.8%
10.8%

(8.0%)
3.0%
16.3%

The current choices for withholding are 0%, 10%, 19%, 23%, 25%, 31% or 37% as the percent of federal
taxes to be withheld for state taxes. The 0% option is only available to those individuals who had no liability
in the prior tax year and expect no tax liability for the current year.

Property Tax Credits
Arizona allows a refundable property tax credit for those who are age 65 or older or who received Title 16,
SSI payments and pay property tax on a home. To qualify for this credit, household income must be below
$3,751 for individuals that live alone, or $5,501 for those that live with others. The maximum credit is $502.

the refund dollars paid were for corporate fiscal years ending in 2002 or before. The percentages are for
refunds paid through the fiscal year.

The figures for the 2006 returns are most meaningful when compared to 2005 returns received during the
same period of time in the previous year. Through July 2006, the Department of Revenue received 81,908
documents with a fiscal year-end of 2005. Compared to 2006 documents, the Department has seen a 2.2%
decrease in the number of corporate returns processed at this point of time in the calendar year.

Urban Revenue Sharing Returned to Cities/Towns
Incorporated cities and towns receive a share of net individual and corporate income tax collections, called
Urban Revenue Sharing. The amount of money to be distributed during Fiscal Year 2007/08 is 15.0% of net
proceeds from Fiscal Year 2005/06 income tax. Amounts returned for July 2007 are shown on Table 2, at
the end of this report.

TRANSACTION PRIVILEGE, SEVERANCE AND USE TAXES
Transaction Privilege, Severance and Use Tax Receipts
The Arizona transaction privilege and severance tax consists of many classifications of tax. These
classifications include but are not limited to retail, contracting, amusements, restaurants and bars,
hotel/motel and mining severance tax. The collections for all such categories are divided, per statute, into
two parts. One part is called distribution base; the other part is known as non-shared. The division of
collections into these two parts varies from category to category. For example, retail sales tax is 40%
distribution base and 60% non-shared. In contrast, contracting is 20% distribution base and 80% nonshared. Use tax is 100% non-shared.
Page 6

July 2007 Tax Facts

At the close of each month, transaction privilege and severance tax collections are aggregated by category
and total distribution base and non-shared portions are calculated. The amount shown as "Use Tax" in the
table below includes use tax, use inventory tax and jet fuel use tax. Education tax is in accordance with
Proposition 301 resulting in an additional 0.6% education tax being added to most business classifications.
The "Other Revenue" category includes county excise, road, jail and hospital taxes and various other excise
taxes, such as the 911 excise tax.

Distribution of Transaction Privilege, Severance and Use Tax Receipts
Of the distribution base portion of transaction privilege and severance taxes, described above, 25% is
returned to incorporated cities/towns, 40.51% is returned to counties and 34.49% goes to the state general
fund with the exception of mining severance tax. All of the non-shared revenue and use tax is deposited into
the general fund. Therefore, the "Retained by State" figure presented below includes all non-shared portion
of transaction privilege tax, use tax and 34.49% of the distribution base collections. The education tax is
distributed in accordance with Proposition 301. “Other" revenues are returned to the administering authority.

*As of 11/1/06, these categories are no longer subject to county and state tax.

Telecommunications Devices, 911 Excise and 911 Wireless Service classifications previously listed in the
collections table are not elements of calculated taxable income and therefore, are not included in the above
table. Since the jet fuel use tax is a gallonage tax, this too can not be computed as taxable income. Timber
Severance includes only sales subject to a repealed rate. The current tax is per board feet upon which
taxable income cannot be computed.

1These Taxable Sales figures are calculated on a per return basis, by taking collections and dividing them by the appropriate tax rate.
These figures may not match other Taxable Sales figures calculated on the aggregate.
