We are writing to request information needed for our Quarterly Survey of Tax Collections. The Bureau of Economic Analysis will use
this information to develop estimates of the Gross Domestic Product—a key economic indicator.
The form on the reverse side shows the data we would like to have concerning your state’s tax collections of the past quarter.
Please note that figures may be entered either for the entire three-month period or on a month-by-month basis, whichever is more
convenient for you.
If actual amounts of tax collections during the past three months are not available, you may use reasonable estimates.
