Colorado businesses paid a lower share of revenues toward state and local taxes in 2016 than they did in 2015, according to an annual ranking of tax burdens put together by the Anderson Economic Group.
Colorado’s business tax burden, excluding federal taxes, went from 9.1 percent or 25th among states in 2015 to 8.2 percent or 16th lowest in 2016. That move lower was the biggest among U.S. states.
