SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Title: Certain Manufacturers and Retailers Excise Taxes.
OMB Number: 1545-1076.
Form Number: 8807.
Abstract: Form 8807 is used to compute the excise tax on fishing
equipment, bows and arrows, trucks and trailer chassis and bodies and
tractors, and the luxury tax on passenger vehicles.
Current Actions: The form has been revised to help taxpayers
correctly compute the tax. The trucks and trailer chassis and bodies
and tractors tax is imposed at retail and requires line entries not
applicable to the three manufacturers taxes. Therefore, we have
separated the retailers tax from the manufacturers' taxes. Line
instructions for Parts I and II have been added that further assist
taxpayers.
Type of Review: Revision of a currently approved form.
Affected Public: Businesses.
Estimated Number of Respondents: 46,746.
Estimated Time Per Respondent: 3 hrs., 11 min.
Estimated Total Annual Burden Hours: 148,618
Request for Comments: Comments submitted in response to this notice
will be summarized and/or included in the request for OMB approval. All
comments will become a matter of public record. Written comments should
address the accuracy of the burden estimates and ways to minimize
burden including the use of 3 tomated collection techniques or the use
of other forms of information technology, as well as other relevant
aspects of the information collection request.
Approved: January 31, 1996.
Garrick R. Shear,
IRS Reports Clearance Officer.
