BHI State Tax Revenue Estimates for FY19 closest of all December 2018 Estimates

The Office of the State Auditor this week reported that the Commonwealth of Massachusetts collected –on net– state tax revenues of $30.2 billion for the fiscal year that ended on June 30, 2019. Last December, the Beacon Hill Institute provided the Joint Revenue Committee with an estimate of  $29.6 billion. BHI’s estimate was the closest of three provided by other groups. The Department of Revenue predicted a range between $28.65 billion and $28.74 billion while the Massachusetts Taxpayers Foundation predicted $28.7 billion for FY19.
