A BILL FOR AN ACT
relating to taxation.
BE IT ENACTED BY THE LEGISLATURE OF THE STATE OF HAWAII:
SECTION 1. Section 235-71, Hawaii Revised Statutes, is amended by amending subsection (d) to read as follows:
"(d) In the case of a real estate
investment trust there is imposed on the taxable income, computed [as
provided in sections 857 and 858] prior to the adjustments provided by
section 857(b)(2) of the Internal Revenue Code [but] and with
the changes and adjustments made by this chapter [(without prejudice to the
generality of the foregoing, the deduction for dividends paid is limited to
such amount of dividends as is attributable to income taxable under this
chapter)], a tax consisting in the sum of the following: 4.4 per cent if
the taxable income is not over $25,000, 5.4 per cent if over $25,000 but not
over $100,000, and on all over $100,000, 6.4 per cent. [In addition to any
other penalty provided by law any real estate investment trust whose tax
liability for any taxable year is deemed to be increased pursuant to section
859(b)(2)(A) or 860(c)(1)(A) after December 31, 1978, (relating to interest and
additions to tax determined with respect to the amount of the deduction for
deficiency dividends allowed) of the Internal Revenue Code shall pay a penalty
in an amount equal to the amount of interest for which such trust is liable
that is attributable solely to such increase. The penalty payable under this
subsection with respect to any determination shall not exceed one-half of the
amount of the deduction allowed by section 859(a), or 860(a) after December 31,
1978, of the Internal Revenue Code for such taxable year.]"
