Here's a quick overview of tithing that I've found helpful:
http://broken-spot.blogspot.com/2012/06/brief-history-of-tithing-and-financial.htmlI have a family member who has left the church and he recently told me about his experience with tithing and church donations in the 1970s. During that time, members were expected to pay tithing on gross income and then also contribute to ward budgets and church building funds etc. He said one year he remembers making $25,000 and $5000 went to the church. He paid tithing and then was expected to pay a generous donation to the church's temple fund when the Washington D.C. temple was being constructed.
