Question: (Accounting for personal income taxes) Saralisa's City, which operates on a calendar year basis, obtains 40 percent of its revenues from personal income taxes. Employers are required to withhold taxes from the earnings of city residents and remit them to the city monthly. City residents must also make payments, if necessary, with quarterly tax estimates. No later than April 15 of the following year, residents must file tax returns, remitting any additional taxes due to the city or claiming refunds of overpayments.
