MassBudget: How Do Mass. Business Taxes Compare to Other States?

The answer may surprise you.

Did you know that Massachusetts has relatively low business tax levels compared with other states? Or that two elements of our state's corporate tax code result in a significant loss of its revenue? That's what you can learn and more in our new series of reports that examine how specific corporate taxes impact the Commonwealth. The first fact sheet, How Do Business Taxes in MA Compare to Other States?, draws on an analysis of business taxes as a percent of the private economy which was conducted by a national business association, the Council on State Taxation (COST). The analysis shows that: At 3.9 percent, Massachusetts' total effective business tax rate is significantly below the national average of 4.5 percent. Only eight other states have lower total effective business tax levels than the Commonwealth. Massachusetts' business tax levels rank in the bottom fifth of all states by this measure.  Our other fact sheets analyze various elements of the corporate tax code. "Together, these reports help us understand that Massachusetts business taxes as a share our economy are relatively low compared to other states, and two business tax provisions that we highlight here appear outdated, ineffective, and unnecessarily costly to the Commonwealth," said Marie-Frances Rivera, MassBudget's President.   One special business tax break- The Single Sales Factor- changes the share of multi-state corporations' profits that are taxable in Massachusetts. This tax break, while showing no discernible benefit, reduces revenue that could be used to invest in our Commonwealth's economy. As discussed in MassBudget's fact sheet, the Mass. Department of Revenue estimates this tax break will cost the state $400 million in Fiscal Year 2020. Champions of this tax break originally promised that it would be worth the expense by increasing manufacturing employment. But in the years since enactment, Massachusetts has lost about 40 percent of its manufacturing jobs. Only four states lost a larger percentage of their manufacturing jobs than Massachusetts between 2000 and 2014. Our other new report in this series focuses on the corporate minimum tax in Massachusetts. Corporate Minimum Taxes in Massachusetts Could Be Better Targeted as in Other States, explains how states have long established minimum corporate excise taxes as a backstop to ensure all corporations pay some income tax, regardless of how much they report in profits. The report shows that Massachusetts' corporate minimum tax has not been changed in 30 years. Since 1989: $456 is the minimum amount corporations are required to pay in Massachusetts, regardless of their size. 70% percent of all businesses that filed corporate excise taxes in Massachusetts paid this in 2015 - including many, very large corporations. According to the Department of Revenue, in 2004, over 2,000 corporations with gross receipts over $50 million paid only the $456 minimum tax. More recent studies show that even many Fortune 500 companies pay no state income tax other than this minimum. Several states have targeted their minimum corporate taxes so that businesses with larger volumes of sales pay larger minimum amounts. In New York, for example, the minimum corporate tax tops out at $200,000 for companies with over $1 billion in New York receipts. Interested in reading the full tax series?

The Massachusetts Budget and Policy Center (MassBudget) produces policy research, analysis, and data-driven recommendations focused on improving the lives of low- and middle-income children and adults, strengthening our state's economy, and enhancing the quality of life in Massachusetts.

“Almost everyone has a story or a close call like this"

From the Milford Daily News, articles of interest for Franklin:

"The first sexual experience for 1 in 16 U.S. women was forced or coerced intercourse in their early teens, encounters that for some may have had lasting health repercussions, a study suggests.

The experiences amount to rape, the authors say, although they relied on a national survey that didn’t use the word in asking women about forced sex.

Almost 7 percent of women surveyed said their first sexual intercourse experience was involuntary; it happened at age 15 on average and the man was often several years older.

Almost half of those women who said intercourse was involuntary said they were held down and slightly more than half of them said they were verbally pressured to have sex against their will."

School Committee - Recap - Sep 10, 2019

The recap of the School Committee meeting held Sep 10, 2019 is summarized as follows:

The three middle schools collaborated to present the highlights of their individual improvement plans. There is more consistency across the district as shown in the plans.

The high school followed to share their improvement plan updates. There is similarity with some programs continuing across the district to the high school. Some programs are also continuing to evolve as they develop with each of the schools.

The high school also presented plans to eventually recognize the students for biliteracy achievement. Student with another language as their primary and achieving levels of mastery in both their primary and English languages. Going the other way, students with mastery in English who also master another language would also be recognized. More work to develop the program is underway with possible first recognition for the graduates in the class of 2021. 

The proposal to study the implications of closing Davis Thayer was approved. The study will take time before coming back with some real numbers and scenarios for decision.

Additional details can be found in my notes reported live during the meeting. Links provided below.

Norfolk County Registry of Deeds: Register O'Donnell Sees Spike in Lending Activity

	Norfolk County Registry of Deeds
	Register O'Donnell Sees Spike in Lending Activity Continuing a recent trend seen in Norfolk County, Register of Deeds William P. O'Donnell reported a significant 25% increase year over year in the number of mortgages recorded during the month of August. This activity stood in contrast to a small decline seen in the number of properties sold countywide during the month. "Regarding mortgage activity," noted O'Donnell, "a total of 3,014 mortgages were recorded compared to 2,418 during the previous year. Total mortgage dollar borrowing for August was $1.6 billion, an eye popping 72% increase year over year. The total borrowing figure was impacted by a $110 million mortgage taken out against a property in Crown Colony, Quincy." Register O'Donnell also mentioned that consumers and commercial property owners are acting favorably on low interest rates, and are willing to refinance existing mortgages and utilize home equity loans for home improvement and other capital and personal needs. On the other hand, August of 2019 saw a slowdown when it came to properties sold in the county. There were only 1,834 properties sold in Norfolk County, a 5% decrease year over year based in comparison to the August 2018 numbers. However, the average property sale, including both residential and commercial transactions during the past August, was $959,518. Total dollar volume for sales in Norfolk County for that period was $1.2 billion. These numbers reflect a substantial increase compared to August 2018. Register O'Donnell noted, "There's no question reductions in real estate inventory are driving up prices. With that said, the increases seen in average sales price and total sales volume were greatly impacted by a $270 million apartment complex transaction of The Commons at Windsor Gardens in Norwood." In addition to the lending numbers, another area that showed continued and significant improvement was Norfolk County foreclosure activity. There was a 59% decrease in the number of foreclosure deeds recorded at the Registry in August. In addition, Notice to Foreclose Mortgages, the first step in the foreclosure process, was down by 33%. "While the eastern Massachusetts economy continues to perform well, some of our neighbors, through no fault of their own, are experiencing economic hardship. I am proud of the Norfolk County Registry of Deeds partnership with Quincy Community Action Programs at (617) 479-8181 x-376 and NeighborWorks Housing Solutions at (617) 770-2227 x-346. These organizations have staff that can provide counsel to anyone who has received a Notice to Foreclose Mortgage from a lending institution. Additionally, another available option is to contact the Massachusetts Attorney General's Consumer Advocacy and Response Division (CARD) at (617) 727-8400," noted O'Donnell. Homestead recordings experienced a small reduction in August of 4% from the prior year. "A Homestead," noted the Register, "is a consumer safeguard that provides limited protection against the forced sale of a homeowner's primary residence to satisfy unsecured debt up to $500,000." Register O'Donnell concluded, "A lack of available real estate inventory continues to play a leading role in the reduced numbers of real estate transactions. We are seeing some prospective homeowners being priced out of the Norfolk County market and having to look elsewhere, such as Worcester County. I do not see any wavering of real estate prices in the foreseeable future. Conversely, low interest rates are continuing to fuel lending activity in the real estate market. These lending numbers also tell us that Norfolk County remains a vibrantly strong economy."

In the News: Going to the CDC for help on EEE; commuter rail $10 weekend fare popular

From the Milford Daily News, articles of interest for Franklin:

"The prevalence of Eastern equine encephalitis in Massachusetts this year has prompted Gov. Charlie Baker to float the idea of broader prevention efforts next year and two MetroWest area members of Congress to ask the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention for information about funding and other assistance.

The state Department of Public Health on Friday announced an eighth confirmed case of EEE, in a man in his 50s from northeastern Bristol County. One human case of another mosquito-borne illness, West Nile virus, and eight confirmed cases of EEE in animals have also been logged so far this year.

Public health officials have been advising residents to continue taking precautions to avoid mosquito bites - wearing bug spray, long sleeves and pants, and staying inside between dusk and dawn - even as the weather gets cooler in September.

On Thursday, U.S. Reps. Joseph Kennedy III and Katherine Clark wrote to CDC director Dr. Robert Redfield, noting that hundreds of mosquitoes across Massachusetts have tested positive for the virus and the number of confirmed human cases in the state “has already exceeded the national average of cases reported to the CDC annually.”

"The commuter rail’s $10 unlimited weekend pass has quickly become a popular option for travelers with more than half a million sold since it was introduced in May 2018, though it remains unclear how much the ticket type has affected overall ridership, officials said.

Keolis, which is under contract to operate the MBTA commuter rail network for the next three years, announced Tuesday that customers purchased 584,000 weekend tickets over the past 16 months.

The company did not provide exact numbers linking the new option to financial growth, but said in its press release that commuter rail revenue has increased 25% over the last four years.

Keolis also said it would be difficult to quantify overall weekend ridership before and after the new pass was piloted and then made permanent, but that the $10 unlimited ticket contributed to some growth."
