KY General Fund and Road Fund receipts for December 2020 General Fund receipts rose 16.1 percent, Year-to-Date up 5.6 percent Road Fund receipts fell 0.8 percent, Year-to Date up 1.3 percent By John/Greg Harkenrider Frankfort, KY - State Budget Director John Hicks reported today that December's General Fund receipts reflected the second highest monthly total ever, $1,258,755,431, a 16.1 percent increase compared to December of last year. Total revenues rose by $174.4 million over last December, with increases in all the major taxes: individual income, sales, business and property taxes. December is one of the three largest months for tax receipts, representing about 10 percent of the year's total revenues. Receipts have now risen 5.6 percent for the first half of the fiscal year, and can decline by 2.7 percent over the last half to meet the recently adopted official revenue estimate of $11,729.0 million. Hicks noted that, "December's receipts are much stronger than expected given the high level of unemployment, the expiration of several federal relief programs, and the social distancing measures still affecting consumer behavior. Revenue collections are ahead of the recent revised forecast. It is expected that receipts for the rest of the fiscal year should compare favorably to the new revenue estimate since the impact of the recently passed federal relief bill was not factored into the assumptions the Consensus Forecasting Group used in their revenue forecast in early December. Income tax receipts increased by 12.7 percent in December. Corporation income tax receipts nearly doubled from last December to $145.5 million. Sales and use taxes grew 4.2 percent. As expected from last month's report, the timing of property tax collections caught up, and were 16.1 percent higher than last December with a 3.8 percent growth rate for the year." Among the major accounts:
Motor fuels tax receipts fell 8.0 percent in December and have decreased 5.1 percent for the year. Motor vehicle usage tax collections rose 8.3 percent in December and have grown 11.2 percent through the first six months of the fiscal year. License and privilege receipts grew 27.4 percent for the month and have risen 3.8 percent for the year. This story was posted on 2021-01-08 09:37:17
