Abstract
Income tax liability is dependent upon a host of factors, which makes conclusions or comparisons difficult. These factors include type of filer, type of income, level of income, federal and/or state exemptions, and tax rates. Although “averages” may be determined mathematically, the results may be misleading; because of the many possible combinations of these factors, references to an “average” taxpayer are not appropriate. One of the better measures, however, is the effective tax rate because it represents the net impact after all factors are considered. The following charts and data attempt to provide key observations about South Carolina’s income taxpayers, liabilities, and comparisons to other states.
