WHAT IS INCOME In preparing your tax return the first item you must determine is your gross income. Unless you are engaged in a business or have in­ come from property this figure will normally be made of cash received from your employer. However, some cash receipts are excluded and you may have income even though you receive no cash. Normally the fair market value of things you receive as compensation must be included in income. If your employer provides you with a house in which to live its rental value is income to you. So too if he pays for your meals. The only exception to this rule about meals and lodging is that if they are fur­ nished to you on your employer’s premises for his convenience they are not income. For example, if it is essential to your employer that you be on his property 24 hours a day and he furnished you a house on the property its rental value is not in­ come to you. If, on the other hand, he pays your rent as an inducement to get you to move to a new location, the rent he pays is income to you. Although usually the fair market value is the amount to be included in income as the result of the receipt of property from your employer, if you have agreed to work for a spec­ ified amount and he pays you with property rather than cash, the a- mount you have agreed upon will normally be the amount to include in income.

The organizations to which the contributions are made must be cperated exclusively for re­ ligious, charitable, literary, educa­ tional or scientific purposes. To be deductible the contribution must ac­ tually have been paid. A pledge to pay is not enough. In order to get the full 30 per cent deduction at least % of your contributions must have been made to churches, educa­ tional organizations or hospitals. The contribution need not be in cash to be deductible. Clothing given to the Salvation Army results in a de­ duction equal to the value of the clothing given. Expenses you have as a solicitor for Community Chest are deductible although you may not deduct the value of the time you have given. Many deductions of this type often are overlooked. Giving property rather than cash to a charity can make the charitable deduction even more valuable. You are entitled to deduct the value of what you give regardless of what it may have cost you. If you have a share of stock for which you paid $20 five years ago that is worth $100 now, you can give the stock and take a $100 deduction. If you sold the stock and gave the proceeds to char­ ity it would be necessary for you to pay an income tax an the $80 profit. By giving the stock to charity you get the $100 deduction and pay no tax. Keep in mind that if you take the standard deduction, it is a substi­ tute for the charitable deduction.
