Old Colony Trust Co. v. Commissioner 279 U.S. 716 (1929)

Income Taxes When you earn income, you have to pay a percentage as income taxes to the federal government. This pays for federal government spending.

What does this mean? Suppose the employee’s salary is $100, per year. This is taxable income. If the tax rate is 25%, the employee owes $25, in taxes. If the employer pays these taxes, then the employee owes 25% of the additional $25, to the IRS.
