presented a first draft of
the ESD's 1982 83 budget to
the ESD Board last week,
saying it represented "the
lowest rate of increase of
any ESD general fund
budget in over a decade ’’
He said, "N ext year the
ESD levy w ill increase by
the statutory six percent,
while the total increase in
the general fund budget
w ill be between eight and
nine percent."
According to Burns, the
1982-82 budget shows the

programs or personnel w ill
be added
" I feel i t ’s a responsible
budget in light of economic
times, but we have still
been able to provide levels
of service that are respon
sive to school d is tric t
needs ”
The budget still has a lot
of hurdles to go over before
it is finally adopted though,
Burns added. He expects
the process to be completed
by late February,
Next, the budget w ill be
the subject of a chief ad
m in is t r a t o r s ' m e e tin g
where the superintendents
of all 28 school districts in
Clackamas County w ill
review it.
On Jan. 4 there w ill be a
Budget Committee work
session to further polish the
budget. Then the Budget
Committee meeting w ill
take place d u ring the

want to examine strategies
for advancing deductible
expenses from 1982 to 1981
and postpone taxable in
come from 1981 to 1982
" I t is possible to go too
far with this strategy,"
warns Nelson Agricultural
producers need to be
careful that they don't shift
too much income to 1982
and waste deductions in
1981. A way to avoid this is
to carefully budget the in
come and expense situation
for 1981 and to estimate
these figures for 1982 This
takes tim e and some
careful calculating, but the
benefits can be there in a
lower tax liability,
"Because of the new tax
law you might want to get
some extra help from your
tax advisor," Nelson sug
gests.

End-of the-year tax plan
ning is always an impor
ta n t
p a rt
of
any
a g ric u ltu ra l producer's
business operations, but
according to Gene Nelson,
Oregon State University
extension farm manage
ment specialist, it is even
mor important now.
"This year, tax manage
ment by farmers and ran
chers w ill be significantly
affected by the Reagan ad-
, m in is tra tio n ’s Economic
Recovery Act of 1981,"
says Nelson. "The new tax
law w ill reduce individual
tax rates up to 23 percent
by the end of 1984
Nelson stresses that tax
strategies must be planned
and put into effect now.
A fter the beginning of the
new year, all farmers and
ranchers can do is record
figures on tax forms, he
says.
"Whenever next year’s
projected taxable income
is less than the current
year’s income, there are
opportunities for year-end
tax management," says
Nelson. "The Economic
Recovery Tax Act of 1981
makes the opportunities
even greater.”
The first step in year-end
tax management is to bring
your business records up-
to-date for expenses and in
come that have already
been incurred in the cur
rent year. Then add in
estimates of income and
expenses for the remainder
of the year.
These estimates can be
based on last year’s tax
return. Referring to the
previous year’s return w ill
help you avoid overlooking
anything while listing in
come and expense items.
The second step is to
make projections of tax
able income and deductible
expenses for next year.
Then, if next year’s pro
jected income is less than
the current year's, you w ill
