NYT May 2016: The financial disclosure form from Mr. Trump that was made public on Wednesday by the Federal Election Commission made it impossible to calculate his specific net worth or to verify his claim that he is worth more than $10 billion. A review of the disclosure form, which covered a period from January 2015 to the present, shows reported income of at least $615 million, an increase from $380 million a year earlier. [Because our salary check uses annual incomes as comparison we divided his 16-month income by 16 - which is $38,437,500 per month. This monthly income was multiplied by 12 which give an annual income over 2015 of $461,250,000.]
Portions of the new income came from Mr. Trump’s sale of the Miss Universe franchise, as well as increased revenues from his golf courses and a reduction in some investment account holdings. Mr. Trump reported assets valued at a minimum of $1.5 billion. Mr. Trump has been unwilling to publicize his recent tax returns. His tax returns could provide a more precise figure than the financial disclosures of how much he actually earns each year, as well as how much he pays in taxes.
