Fifty-fifth Legislature                 First Regular Session - 1999

                              HOUSE BILL NO. 109, As Amended

                            BY REVENUE AND TAXATION COMMITTEE

 1                                        AN ACT
 2    RELATING TO INCOME TAXES; AMENDING SECTION 63-3022, IDAHO CODE, TO CHANGE  THE
 3        NET  OPERATING LOSS CARRYBACK FROM THREE YEARS TO TWO YEARS, TO CHANGE THE
 4        NET OPERATING LOSS CARRYFORWARD FROM FIFTEEN TO TWENTY YEARS,  TO  CLARIFY
 5        THAT  CERTAIN  LOSSES ARE DEDUCTIBLE FOR A CORPORATION OR FOR ANY CORPORA-
 6        TION FILING AS A COMBINED GROUP IF THE LOSS  OCCURRED  WHEN  BUSINESS  WAS
 7        BEING  TRANSACTED IN IDAHO, AND TO MAKE TECHNICAL CORRECTIONS; AND PROVID-
 8        ING AN EFFECTIVE DATE.

 9    Be It Enacted by the Legislature of the State of Idaho:

10        SECTION 1.  That Section 63-3022, Idaho Code, be, and the same  is  hereby
11    amended to read as follows:

12        63-3022.  ADJUSTMENTS  TO  TAXABLE  INCOME. The additions and subtractions
13    set forth in this section, and in sections 63-3022A  through  63-3022M,  Idaho
14    Code,  are  to  be  applied  to  the extent allowed in computing Idaho taxable
15    income:
16        (a)  Add any state taxes, measured by net income, paid or  accrued  during
17    the  taxable  year  adjusted for state tax refunds used in arriving at taxable
18    income.
19        (b)  Add the net operating loss deduction  used  in  arriving  at  taxable
20    income.
21        (c)  (1) A net operating loss for any taxable year commencing on and after
22        January  1, 199 0  9 , shall be a net operating loss
23        carryback not to exceed a total of one hundred thousand dollars ($100,000)
24        to the  three   two  ( 3  2  )
25        immediately preceding taxable years. Any portion of the net operating loss
26        not  subtracted  in  the    three      two  ( 3
27         2 ) preceding years may be subtracted in the next  
28        fifteen    twenty  ( 15  20 ) years
29        succeeding the taxable year in  which  the  loss  arises  in  order  until
30        exhausted.  The sum of the deductions may not exceed the amount of the net
31        operating loss deduction incurred. At the election of  the  taxpayer,  the
32          three     two  ( 3  2 ) year
33        carryback may be foregone and the loss subtracted from income received  in
34        taxable years arising in the next  fifteen   twenty 
35        (  15    20  )  years succeeding the taxable year in
36        which the loss arises in order until exhausted. The election shall be made
37        as under section 172(b)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code. An election under
38        this subsection must be in the manner prescribed in the rules of the state
39        tax commission and once made is irrevocable for the year in  which  it  is
40        made. The term "income" as used in this subsection (c) means Idaho taxable
41        income  as  defined  in this chapter as modified by section 63-3021(b)(2),
42        (3) and (4), Idaho Code.
43        (2)  Net operating losses incurred by a corporation during a year in which


                                          2

 1        such corporation did not transact business in Idaho or was not included in
 2        a group of corporations combined under subsection (t) of section  63-3027,
 3        Idaho Code, may not be subtracted.  However, if at least one (1) cor-
 4        poration  within  a group of corporations combined under subsection (t) of
 5        section 63-3027, Idaho Code, was transacting business in Idaho during  the
 6        taxable  year  in which the loss was incurred, then the net operating loss
 7        may be subtracted.  Net operating losses incurred by a person, other
 8        than a corporation, in business activities not taxable by Idaho may not be
 9        subtracted.
10        (d)  In the case of a corporation, add the amount deducted under the  pro-
11    visions  of sections 243(a) and (c), 244, 245 and 246A of the Internal Revenue
12    Code (relating to dividends received by corporations) as  limited  by  section
13    246(b)(1) of said code.
14        (e)  In  the  case  of  a corporation, subtract an amount determined under
15    section 78 of the Internal Revenue Code to be taxable as dividends.
16        (f)  Subtract the amount of any income received or accrued during the tax-
17    able year which is exempt from taxation by this state, under the provisions of
18    any other law of this state or a law of the United States, if  not  previously
19    subtracted in arriving at taxable income.
20        (g)  In  the  case  of  corporations  and  partnerships, add Idaho taxable
21    income of nonresident officers, directors, shareholders, partners  or  members
22    to  the  extent such income is attributed to the corporation or partnership in
23    section 63-3022L, Idaho Code.
24        (h)  For the purpose of determining the Idaho taxable income of the  bene-
25    ficiary  of  a  trust or of an estate, distributable net income as defined for
26    federal tax purposes shall be corrected for the other adjustments required  by
27    this section. In the event that a nonresident beneficiary of a trust or estate
28    fails to file an Idaho income tax return reporting all or any part of distrib-
29    utable  net  income  taxable in Idaho or fails to pay any tax due thereon, the
30    trust or estate making the payment or distribution shall be taxable  upon  the
31    amount   of  such  distribution or payment at the rates established by section
32    63-3024, Idaho Code.
33        (i)  In the case of an individual who is on active  duty  as  a  full-time
34    officer,  enlistee  or  draftee,  with  the armed forces of the United States,
35    which full-time duty is or will be continuous and uninterrupted for  one  hun-
36    dred  twenty  (120)  consecutive days or more, deduct compensation paid by the
37    armed forces of the United States for services performed outside  this  state.
38    The deduction is allowed only to the extent such income is included in taxable
39    income, and provided that appropriate adjustments shall be made in determining
40    the  deductions  and exemptions allowed pursuant to section 63-3026A(4), Idaho
41    Code.
42        (j)  In the  case  of  a  corporation  ,  including  any  corporation
43    included  in  a group of corporations combined under subsection (t) of section
44    63-3027, Idaho Code , add any  capital  loss  deducted  which  loss  was
45    incurred  during  any year in which such corporation did not transact business
46    in Idaho .   unless the   However, do not  add  any
47    capital loss deducted if a  corporation ,   was included
48       including any corporation  in a group of corporations com-
49    bined under subsection (t) of section 63-3027, Idaho Code , was transact-
50    ing business in Idaho during the taxable year in which the loss  was  incurred
51    .  In the case of persons, other than corporations, add any capital loss
52    deducted which was incurred in business activities not taxable by Idaho at the
53    time such loss was incurred. In computing the income taxable to an S  corpora-
54    tion  or  partnership under this section, deduction shall not be allowed for a
55    carryover or carryback of a net operating loss provided for in subsection  (c)


                                          3

 1    of this section or a capital loss provided for in section 1212 of the Internal
 2    Revenue Code.
 3        (k)  In  the  case of an individual, there shall be allowed as a deduction
 4    from gross income either (1) or (2) at the option of the taxpayer:
 5        (1)  The standard deduction as defined in  section  63,  Internal  Revenue
 6        Code.
 7        (2)  Itemized  deductions as defined in section 63 of the Internal Revenue
 8        Code except state income taxes as specified in section 164 of the Internal
 9        Revenue Code.
10        (l)  Add the taxable amount of any lump  sum  distribution  deducted  from
11    gross  income  pursuant to section 402(d)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code. The
12    taxable amount will include the ordinary income portion and the amount  eligi-
13    ble for the capital gain election.

15    income under the provisions of section 86 of the Internal Revenue Code  relat-
16    ing to certain social security and railroad benefits.
17        ( o  n )  In the case of a self-employed individual,
18    deduct the actual cost of premiums paid to secure worker's compensation insur-
19    ance  for coverage in Idaho, if such cost has not been deducted in arriving at

This bill amends the Idaho Income Tax Act as it relates to the
carryover and carryback of net operating losses (NOL). It amends
section 63-3022(c), Idaho Code, to change the net operating loss
carryback period from three to two years and the carry forward
period from fifteen to twenty years. The change applies to losses
incurred in taxable years beginning on and after January l, l999.

The bill also clarifies that deductible losses must be attributable
to Idaho.

The two-year carryback and twenty-year carryforward conforms to
the federal rules for NOL deductions.
