B Crockett’s Ag Advice
By John E. Brockett
Farm Management Agent
Lewistown Extension Office
MANAGING TAXES
Farmers should spend some
time on developing their tax
management program or hire
someone else to do it. Example:
Why buy 1985 fertilizer now? There
is only one reason for doing it That is
if a combination of discounts on
the fertilizer and tax savings on
1984 taxes exceeds the cost (or
loss) of interest on the money used
to make the purchase. If there is no
tax savings because there are no
taxes, then the discount alone must
offset that interest. The answer to
this problem is step one in tax
management.
Should you sell cows or steers or
logs or land in 1984 or should you
sell all or part of the item in 1985?
This one becomes a little more
complicated than the fertilizer
problem because (a) will the cost
of keeping the item be greater than
the entire tax, (b) will prices be
higher or lower later, (c) will the
buyer still want the property later
or (d) do you even have taxes to
pay?
Let’s Start
Estimating your 1984 tax con
sequences can be done. It will
require (1) a good set of records
and (2) last years tax return.
First, get your record book in
shape. Then add up all of your
income and expenses. Subtract the
income from the sale of capital
items such as dairy or breeding
animals, timber, and land. Then
subtract the expenses from the
income. Multiply the result by 1.2.
That is your cash farm return.
Now turn to your 1983 return. Find
line 53 on Schedule F and subtract
the amount on that line from the
above answer. Now you have an
estimated farm profit. Compare it
to the amount on line 19 of 1983
form 1040. How much above or
below is it? Next take your 10
month capital sale income and add
to it an estimated income from
capital sales for November and
December. Multiply that answer
by 0.4. Compare the result to line 13
on the 1983 form 1040. Is it above or
below?
Now that you have an idea of
whether the 1984 taxable income is
higher or lower than the 1983
taxable income, you are ready to
make some decisions.

Decide: (a) should I try to
reduce it, (b) do I have investment
credit left over or will I have in
vestment credit from purchases
this year, or (c) will I actually be
further ahead leaving it higher?
If (a): If you answer yes to this,
the fastest way to reduce it is to
buy fertilizer, feed, seeds, or
supplies ahead. Second is to buy
machinery. Third is to buy
buildings.
If (b); You have opened up some
additional questions. Is the
available credit greater than last
year? If so you may wind up with a
very similar situation to last year.
If (c): Sometimes reducing
taxable income can cost you
money, especially in the $5OOO to
$7OOO area. This is where earned
income credit is the greatest. It
will probably be high enough to
pay all or most of your social
security tax.
Decide: (a) should I reduce it
further, (b) leave well enough
alone, or (c) raise it.
If (a): Use the same answer as
in (a) above.
If (b); Sometimes nothing is the
best solution.
If (c); Raising it to take full
advantage of all available
deductions and credits can be the
best move. Raising it would entail
selling extra commodities such as
com or holding off on expenses
until January.
