2014 SBTCI* (State Business Tax Climate Index)
*SOURCE: www.taxfoundation.org
How the State Business Tax
Climate Index is Calculated
The SBTCI places 112 variables into five component
indexes that each measure a different sector of a state’s
business tax climate. The five component indexes are
the Corporate Tax Index, Individual Income Tax Index,
Sales Tax Index, Unemployment Tax Index and Property
Tax Index. The total score for each state is calculated
based on the scores on each of the five component
indexes.
Using the economic literature as our guide, we designed
these five component indexes to score each state’s
business tax climate on a scale of zero (worst) to 10
(best). Each component index is devoted to a major area
of state taxation and each has two equally weighted sub-
indexes, some of which include several categories and
variables under them.
2014 Index represents the tax climate of each state as ofJuly 1, 2013 – the first day of the standard 2014 state fiscal year.
