Act 284 of 1964


141.609 Definitions; R to T.

    (2) "Taxable year" means the calendar year, or the fiscal year, used as the basis on which net profits and other income subject to tax under this ordinance are to be computed, and in case of a return for a fractional part of a year, the period for which the return is required to be made.
