Linear and gradual tax rate system for tax software products

摘要

The present invention provides a linear and gradual (LG) tax rate system with a tax processor for tax software products. Existing two tax systems of federal individual Tax Schedules and Tax Table/Tax Computation Worksheet are simplified and combined into one LG tax rate system. The tax processor and software product are designed for taxpayers (employees, employers or self-employments) to file tax returns, for employers to do payroll to employees and transfer withholding taxes to governments or for governments to inspect tax returns by comparing tax withholding reports and tax returns according to related standards instead of existing random selections. Differences of taxes, tax rates and taxable incomes are set at low, mid and high levels for tax return options, quick tax refunds, regular inspections and detail audits to reduce tax returns and potential tax crimes and save tax processing time and costs (billions) for businesses, individuals and governments.
