Book Description
The financing of the federal government depends largely on the Internal Revenue Service's (IRS) efforts to collect taxes. To fund IRS's 2012 operations, the President requested $13.3 billion spread over five appropriations, including $6 billion for enforcement, $4.6 billion for operations support, and $2.3 billion for taxpayer services. This report reviewed the FY 2012 budget justification for IRS. The objectives were to: (1) describe IRS's budget and staffing trends for FYs 2008 through 2012; (2) assess IRS's process for identifying potential savings and how it used savings that were greater than projected; (3) describe new enforcement, taxpayer service and other initiatives in the FY 2012 budget justification, including any estimates of return on investment (ROI); (4) assess any legislative proposals in the budget justification and how IRS reports their costs; (5) assess how the budget justification reports on the costs and performance of major IT systems; (6) describe how 2012 PPACA costs are presented in the budget justification; and (7) document IRS's implementation of GAO's budget recommendations from prior years' reports as well as highlight open matters for Congress and recommendations to IRS with potential savings or revenues. Tables. This is a print on demand report.

The Crisis in Tax Administration
Author: Henry Aaron
Publisher: Rowman & Littlefield
ISBN: 9780815796565
Category : Political Science
Languages : en
Pages : 420
Book Description
People pay taxes for two reasons. On the positive side, most people recognize, even if grudgingly, that payment of tax is a duty of citizenship. On the negative side, they know that the law requires payment, that evasion is a crime, and that willful failure to pay taxes is punishable by fines or imprisonment. The practical questions for tax administration are how to strengthen each of these motives to comply with the law. How much should be spent on enforcement and how should enforcement be organized to promote these objectives and achieve the best results per dollar spent? Over the last few years, the U.S. Congress has restricted spending on tax administration, forcing the Internal Revenue Service to curtail enforcement activities, at the same time, that the number of individual filers has increased, tax rules have become more complex, and more business have become multinational operations. But if too many cases of tax evasion go undetected and unpunished, those who may have grudgingly paid their taxes may soon find it easier to join the scofflaws. These events in combination have created a genuine crisis in tax administration. The chapters in this volume evaluate the capacity of authorities to enforce the tax laws in a modern, global economy and examine the implications of failing to do so. Specific aspects of tax law, including tax shelters, issues relating to small businesses, tax software, role of tax preparers, and the objectives of tax simplification are examined in detail. The volume also builds a conceptual basis for future scholarship, with regard not only to tax administration, but also to such fundamental questions as whether taxpayers respond mostly to economic incentives or are influenced by their experiences with the filing process and what is the proper framework for evaluating the allocation of resources within the IRS.
