The Annual Tax Expenditure Report - The Tax Expenditure Annual Report Act defines a tax expenditure as "any statutory provision or state agency regulation which exempts, in whole or in part, any specific class or classes of persons, income, goods, services, or property from established state taxes, including, but not limited to, those provisions known as tax deductions, tax allowances, tax exclusions, tax credits, and tax exemptions."

A tax expenditure report shows that revenues foregone due to tax code provisions have the same kind of effect as direct budgetary expenditures. The report also provides a vehicle for annual legislative review of tax expenditures similar to the review that direct expenditures receive through the appropriation process.

A Summary Comparison of State Taxes in Selected Southeastern States - This report compares various tax rates and provisions by category in Mississippi to those in Alabama, Arkansas, Georgia, Louisiana, South Carolina and Tennessee.
