SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Alcohol and Tobacco Tax and Trade Bureau (TTB) OMB Number: 1513-0007. Type of Review: Revision of a currently approved collection. Title: Brewer's Report of Operations and Quarterly Brewer's Report of Operations. Form: TTB F 5130.9, 5130.26. Abstract: The Internal Revenue Code (IRC) requires brewers to file periodic reports of their brewing and associated operations. Brewers that anticipate an annual Federal excise tax liability of $50,000 or more with respect to beer must use TTB F 5130.9 to file monthly operational reports. Brewers that were liable for not more than $50,000 in Federal excise taxes with respect to beer in the preceding calendar year and that reasonably expect to be liable for not more than $50,000 in such taxes during the current calendar year may use either TTB F 5130.9 or the simplified TTB F 5130.26 to file quarterly operational reports. TTB uses these reports to determine whether the brewer's operations are in compliance with the requirements of Federal law and regulations. We also use this information to assist us in determining whether the brewer pays the proper Federal excise taxes in a timely and accurate manner. Affected Public: Private Sector: Businesses or other for-profits. Estimated Annual Burden Hours: 18,036. OMB Number: 1513-0008.
