In some foreign countries, the tax law specifically designates the types of income items that are includible in gross income. How does this approach compare with the U.S. Internal Revenue Code 61. What is a major advantage to the approach used in the U.S


ANSWER


The BIDaWIZ Team's Answer:

This differs from IRC 61; which, basically, provides that all

money received is taxable income; unless, there is a code provision

that exempts the item from taxation. There is no advantage to the US

taxpyayer; only to the US government.
