The Weather Utah Foundation made similar comparisons, although major taxes have been increased sub Etantially in the interim. Federal taxes paid and Federal benefits rvesived were not considered in any of the Foun dation comparisons. A typical family of four, living in Salt Lake City, was assumed' HIJ hava a gross income of $8,000 a year, to live in a horns with a current market valua of $17,500, and to trivo lO.ODpmiles a year .in a car with a market value of $1,750. On the basis i:f these assumptions, it was indicated that slightly over $700 would ba paid in direct taxes in 19GP to state, county, city, and school district. Q:st of benefits provided by these same government units would exceed $1,400, according to the research brief issued by the In calculating Fpiundiatron. benefits, money from Federal sources was eliminated from state and local budget totals, as were funds from npn-ta- x source. Also exempted from state expenditures were such as the "B" and "C" road funds Bind liquor profits allocated to local government so that there would be r.o duplication pf these amounts which appear in local government budgets. Major taxes paid included about $277 in property taxes on the home, $148 in sales tax (staite and local levies totaling ZVi) and $138 in state tax. OthOT direct taxes would include property tax nd license plate fees on the family car, state gasoine tax. and miscellaneous taxes inclu. ding thtee on liquor, cigarettes, and oleomargarine. Cost of benefits provided v (on the basis of a ber family) was $480 at the state level, $167 from the county, $312 from thj city. and $470 from the schoDi dis trict. It was noted by the Foundation that the figure for schotil benefits was conservative. Inasmuch as there are more family units in Salt Lake City than children in public schools, the average cost per family of the schl district is less than the average cost per school child. Average cost per child in Salt Lake City schools in the 1967-6- 8 school year was about $620. Cost of benefits for a family with two school-ng- o children would be $1,239. The figure for three school-ag- e children would be $1,859, and for four schlao children, $2,479 Presley Whornham Euzella Thomas Mable Muir 10 14 15 Dairy And Beef Livestock Conference sions iof sympathy extended to the family at the time of our bereavement.
