Abstract

The system described in this research report computes 1975 Federal income tax for those who itemize deductions. The system user calls the program, written in FORTRAN IV, from a computer terminal, and then types answers to questions asked by the program. The user is given the opportunity to make corrections in the answers, and then the system calculates and prints out information necessary the complete IRS Form 1040 and Schedule A. The paper contains a description of the system, and explanation of the program, recommendations for future revision, and suggestions for expansion of the system. Four appendices contain IRS Form 1040 and Schedule A, sample cases, a complete program listing, and the gas tax and sales tax tables and tax rates schedules X, Y, and Z in which the tax is found.
