These tax revenues stem from various sources, including property tax, sales and gross receipts tax, licenses, income tax, and miscellaneous tax.
The majority of the state’s tax revenue was collected through general sales and gross receipts taxes ($7 billion) and death and gift taxes ($675 million).
