Tax-<br />

Continued from page 45<br />

This equipment may be fully written<br />

off. The absence of these charges will increase<br />

his net taxable business income.<br />

On the other hand, he may have acquired<br />

more than the usual amount of new<br />

business assets during this tax year. He may<br />

have decided to expand concessions equipment<br />

because of increasing sales and demand<br />

for greater variety, or, he already<br />

could have spent more on modernization<br />

than earlier anticipated. Some equipment<br />

could have been purchased instead of repairing<br />

the old equipment as was earlier<br />

planned. These investments would generate<br />

new depreciation charges, and depreciation<br />

rules allow a substantial deduction for these<br />

assets. In addition, he may be entitled to a<br />

large investment credit, directly deductible<br />

from his income tax bill. Taking these deductions<br />

into account for his tax estimate<br />

may reduce taxable income enough to warrant<br />

amending his tax estimate downward.<br />

Non-business Income ... As the year<br />

progresses, non-business income could increase<br />

substantially above the original estimate.<br />

An exhibitor could gain new income<br />

sources. He may convert low-yield holdings<br />

into those that produce larger returns, or,<br />

non-business income could sharply decline.<br />

An unexpected windfall during the year<br />

could alter the income tax obligation.<br />

Casualty Loss ... An exhibitor may sustain<br />

a heavy casualty loss which will adversely<br />

affect him. sharply cutting his income<br />

tax obligation. Even if he is partially<br />

reimbursed for his loss, the unreimbursed<br />

part may warrant an amended estimate.<br />

Capital Gains and Losses . . . Substantial<br />

capital gains and losses, or a combination of<br />

both, may warrant an amended estimate.<br />

This may depend on the extent of the gain<br />

or loss, and whether or not the one approximates<br />

cancelling out the other.<br />

An exhibitor may fail to take into account,<br />

when making his initial estimate,<br />

any carryover capital loss which he is entitled<br />

to deduct in his income tax return<br />

for this year. If so, and the carryover loss<br />

is large enough, this may materially reduce<br />

his income tax obligation for the year.<br />

Itemized Personal Deductions and Exemptions<br />

. . There are a number of situ-<br />

.<br />

ations in which the amount of personal<br />

itemized deductions could change dramatically,<br />

either up or down. An exhibitor who<br />

usually has expenses that remain fairly constant<br />

from one year to another, may be<br />

more prone to overlook any changes. Some<br />

deductible expenses by themselves, such as<br />

the creation or loss of deductible taxes and<br />

interest on the purchase of a home, a big<br />

change in the amount that can be deducted<br />

for medical costs and so forth, could warrant<br />

an amended estimate. In other cases, a<br />

combination could sharply raise or lower<br />

deductible expenses. This latter instance<br />

cinild he overlooked because there seems<br />
