January 2011 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
January 2008 through March 2009, $834.6 million was received for the first quarter of 2008. The
latest complete quarter (15 months of information has been compiled) is the fourth quarter of 2009,
which shows a decrease of 2.80% in withholding payments over the fourth quarter of 2009.
Growth in quarters for which information is still being gathered is as follows:
1st Quarter 2010
3rd Quarter 2010
1st Quarter 2011

(1.47)%
6.06%
23.64%

2nd Quarter 2010
4th Quarter 2010

1.16%
6.22%

Beginning July 1, 2010, the state withholding tables calculate Arizona withholding as a percentage
of gross taxable wages. The withholding rates were revised effective January 1, 2011. The new
withholding rates are 0%, 0.8%, 1.3%, 1.8%, 2.7%, 3.6%, 4.2% or 5.1%. The 0% option is only
available to those individuals who expect no tax liability in the current year.

Clean Elections
As a result of the January 1998 voter approval of the Citizens Clean Elections, Arizona’s income
taxpayers can make a donation to the Citizens Clean Elections Commission through an income tax
check-off or through a voluntary donation. The following is for returns filed in 2011.

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 2010/11 is 15.0% of net proceeds from Fiscal Year 2008/09 income tax. Amounts returned
for January 2011 are shown on Table 2 located 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% non-shared. Use tax is 100% non-shared. 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. Temporary Tax is in accordance with Proposition 100 passed in May 2010,
resulting in an additional 1% being added to most business classifications. The Temporary Tax is
scheduled to expire on May 31, 2013. 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
on the next page 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. Temporary Tax is in accordance with Proposition 100 passed in May 2010, resulting in an
additional 1% being added to most business classifications. The Temporary Tax is scheduled to
expire on May 31, 2013. “Other" revenues are returned to the administering authority.

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.

Transaction Privilege and Severance Tax Returned to Cities/Towns
The portion of transaction privilege and severance tax returned to each incorporated city or town
for January 2011 is shown on Table 3, attached to this report.

County Tax Collections
The county-imposed tax collections received by the Department of Revenue during January and
returned to the counties are shown on Table 4, attached to this report. The rental car surcharge in
Maricopa County is $2.50 per car and in Pima County is $3.50 per car. The RV Surcharge in Pima
County is $0.50/day on each lease or rental of a parking space for recreational vehicles.

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.
