State Corporate Income Tax Rates and


Brackets for 2015

By  Jared   Walczak

    Analyst



Levied in 44 states, corporate income taxes account for a relatively small share of
state revenue-5.2  percent of state tax collections and just over 2 percent of all state

revenue, including federal transfers.' Top rates range from a low of 4.53 percent in
North  Dakota to a high of 12 percent in Iowa.


Iowa's highest top corporate tax rate is followed by Pennsylvania's, at 9.99 percent.

Four states and the District of Columbia levy single-rate corporate taxes of 9 percent
or more: Minnesota  (9.84 percent), Alaska (9.4 percent), the District of Columbia (9.4

percent), Connecticut (9 percent), and New Jersey (9 percent). At the other end of
the spectrum, six states have top rates at or below 5 percent: North Dakota at 4.53

percent, Colorado at 4.63 percent, and Mississippi, North Carolina, South Carolina,
and Utah  all at 5.0 percent.


Ohio, Texas, and Washington  forego  corporate income  taxes but instead impose

gross receipts taxes on businesses. Nevada, South Dakota,  and Wyoming   levy
neither corporate income  nor gross receipts taxes.
