HB2486- 4 -LRB098 09354 HLH 39495 b


1 modification under this

8 member of the same unitary business group but for the 
9 fact that foreign person's business activity outside 
10 the United States is 80% or more of the foreign 
11 person's total business activity and (ii) for taxable 
12 years ending on or after December 31, 2008, to a person 
13 who would be a member of the same unitary business 
14 group but for the fact that the person is prohibited 
15 under Section 1501(a)(27) from being included in the 
16 unitary business group because he or she is ordinarily 
17 required to apportion business income under different 
18 subsections of Section 304. The addition modification 
19 required by this subparagraph shall be reduced to the 
20 extent that dividends were included in base income of 
21 the unitary group for the same taxable year and 
22 received by the taxpayer or by a member of the 
23 taxpayer's unitary business group (including amounts 
24 included in gross income under Sections 951 through 964 
25 of the Internal Revenue Code and amounts included in 
26 gross income under Section 78 of the Internal Revenue 
 
 
HB2486- 5 -LRB098 09354 HLH 39495 b


1 Code) with respect to the stock of the same person to 
2 whom the interest was paid, accrued, or incurred.
3   This paragraph shall not apply to the following:

4    (i) an item of interest paid, accrued, or 
5 incurred, directly or indirectly, to a person who 
6 is subject in a foreign country or state, other 
7 than a state which requires mandatory unitary 
8 reporting, to a tax on or measured by net income 
9 with respect to such interest; or
10    (ii) an item of interest paid, accrued, or 
11 incurred, directly or indirectly, to a person if 
12 the taxpayer can establish, based on a 
13 preponderance of the evidence, both of the 
14 following:
15     (a) the person, during the same taxable 
16 year, paid, accrued, or incurred, the interest 
17 to a person that is not a related member, and
18     (b) the transaction giving rise to the 
19 interest expense between the taxpayer and the 
20 person did not have as a principal purpose the 
21 avoidance of Illinois income tax, and is paid 
22 pursuant to a contract or agreement that 
23 reflects an arm's-length interest rate and 
24 terms; or

25    (iii) the taxpayer can establish, based on 
26 clear and convincing evidence, that the interest 
 
 
HB2486- 6 -LRB098 09354 HLH 39495 b


1 paid, accrued, or incurred relates to a contract or 
2 agreement entered into at arm's-length rates and 
3 terms and the principal purpose for the payment is 
4 not federal or Illinois tax avoidance; or

5    (iv) an item of interest paid, accrued, or 
6 incurred, directly or indirectly, to a person if 
7 the taxpayer establishes by clear and convincing 
8 evidence that the adjustments are unreasonable; or 
9 if the taxpayer and the Director agree in writing 
10 to the application or use of an alternative method 
11 of apportionment under Section 304(f).

12    Nothing in this subsection shall preclude the 
13 Director from making any other adjustment 
14 otherwise allowed under Section 404 of this Act for 
15 any tax year beginning after the effective date of 
16 this amendment provided such adjustment is made 
17 pursuant to regulation adopted by the Department 
18 and such regulations provide methods and standards 
19 by which the Department will utilize its authority 
20 under Section 404 of this Act;

21   (D-18) An amount equal to the amount of intangible 
22 expenses and costs otherwise allowed as a deduction in 
23 computing base income, and that were paid, accrued, or 
24 incurred, directly or indirectly, (i) for taxable 
25 years ending on or after December 31, 2004, to a 
26 foreign person who would be a member of the same 
 
 
HB2486- 7 -LRB098 09354 HLH 39495 b


1 unitary business group but for the fact that the 
2 foreign person's business activity outside the United 
3 States is 80% or more of that person's total business 
4 activity and (ii) for taxable years ending on or after 
5 December 31, 2008, to a person who would be a member of 
6 the same unitary business group but for the fact that 
7 the person is prohibited under Section 1501(a)(27) 
8 from being included in the unitary business group 
9 because he or she is ordinarily required to apportion 
10 business income under different subsections of Section 
11 304. The addition modification required by this 
12 subparagraph shall be reduced to the extent that 
13 dividends were included in base income of the unitary 
14 group for the same taxable year and received by the 
15 taxpayer or by a member of the taxpayer's unitary 
16 business group (including amounts included in gross 
17 income under Sections 951 through 964 of the Internal 
18 Revenue Code and amounts included in gross income under 
19 Section 78 of the Internal Revenue Code) with respect 
20 to the stock of the same person to whom the intangible 
21 expenses and costs were directly or indirectly paid, 
22 incurred, or accrued. The preceding sentence does not 
23 apply to the extent that the same dividends caused a 
24 reduction to the addition modification required under 
25 Section 203(a)(2)(D-17) of this Act. As used in this 
26 subparagraph, the term "intangible expenses and costs" 
 
 
HB2486- 8 -LRB098 09354 HLH 39495 b


1 includes (1) expenses, losses, and costs for, or 
2 related to, the direct or indirect acquisition, use, 
3 maintenance or management, ownership, sale, exchange, 
4 or any other disposition of intangible property; (2) 
5 losses incurred, directly or indirectly, from 
6 factoring transactions or discounting transactions; 
7 (3) royalty, patent, technical, and copyright fees; 
8 (4) licensing fees; and (5) other similar expenses and 
9 costs.
For purposes of this subparagraph, "intangible 
10 property" includes patents, patent applications, trade 
11 names, trademarks, service marks, copyrights, mask 
12 works, trade secrets, and similar types of intangible 
13 assets.
14   This paragraph shall not apply to the following:
15    (i) any item of intangible expenses or costs 
16 paid, accrued, or incurred, directly or 
17 indirectly, from a transaction with a person who is 
18 subject in a foreign country or state, other than a 
19 state which requires mandatory unitary reporting, 
20 to a tax on or measured by net income with respect 
21 to such item; or
22    (ii) any item of intangible expense or cost 
23 paid, accrued, or incurred, directly or 
24 indirectly, if the taxpayer can establish, based 
25 on a preponderance of the evidence, both of the 
26 following:
 
 
HB2486- 9 -LRB098 09354 HLH 39495 b


1     (a) the person during the same taxable 
2 year paid, accrued, or incurred, the 
3 intangible expense or cost to a person that is 
4 not a related member, and
5     (b) the transaction giving rise to the 
6 intangible expense or cost between the 
7 taxpayer and the person did not have as a 
8 principal purpose the avoidance of Illinois 
9 income tax, and is paid pursuant to a contract 
10 or agreement that reflects arm's-length terms; 
11 or
12    (iii) any item of intangible expense or cost 
13 paid, accrued, or incurred, directly or 
14 indirectly, from a transaction with a person if the 
15 taxpayer establishes by clear and convincing 
16 evidence, that the adjustments are unreasonable; 
17 or if the taxpayer and the Director agree in 
18 writing to the application or use of an alternative 
19 method of apportionment under Section 304(f);

20    Nothing in this subsection shall preclude the 
21 Director from making any other adjustment 
22 otherwise allowed under Section 404 of this Act for 
23 any tax year beginning after the effective date of 
24 this amendment provided such adjustment is made 
25 pursuant to regulation adopted by the Department 
26 and such regulations provide methods and standards 
 
 
HB2486- 10 -LRB098 09354 HLH 39495 b


1 by which the Department will utilize its authority 
2 under Section 404 of this Act;

3   (D-19) For taxable years ending on or after 
4 December 31, 2008, an amount equal to the amount of 
5 insurance premium expenses and costs otherwise allowed 
6 as a deduction in computing base income, and that were 
7 paid, accrued, or incurred, directly or indirectly, to 
8 a person who would be a member of the same unitary 
9 business group but for the fact that the person is 
10 prohibited under Section 1501(a)(27) from being 
11 included in the unitary business group because he or 
12 she is ordinarily required to apportion business 
13 income under different subsections of Section 304. The 
14 addition modification required by this subparagraph 
15 shall be reduced to the extent that dividends were 
16 included in base income of the unitary group for the 
17 same taxable year and received by the taxpayer or by a 
18 member of the taxpayer's unitary business group 
19 (including amounts included in gross income under 
20 Sections 951 through 964 of the Internal Revenue Code 
21 and amounts included in gross income under Section 78 
22 of the Internal Revenue Code) with respect to the stock 
23 of the same person to whom the premiums and costs were 
24 directly or indirectly paid, incurred, or accrued. The 
25 preceding sentence does not apply to the extent that 
26 the same dividends caused a reduction to the addition 
 
 
HB2486- 11 -LRB098 09354 HLH 39495 b


1 modification required under Section 203(a)(2)(D-17) or

13    (ii) an item of interest paid, accrued, or 
14 incurred, directly or indirectly, to a person if 
15 the taxpayer can establish, based on a 
16 preponderance of the evidence, both of the 
17 following:
18     (a) the person, during the same taxable 
19 year, paid, accrued, or incurred, the interest 
20 to a person that is not a related member, and
21     (b) the transaction giving rise to the 
22 interest expense between the taxpayer and the 
23 person did not have as a principal purpose the 
24 avoidance of Illinois income tax, and is paid 
25 pursuant to a contract or agreement that 
26 reflects an arm's-length interest rate and 
 
 
HB2486- 33 -LRB098 09354 HLH 39495 b


1 terms; or

2    (iii) the taxpayer can establish, based on 
3 clear and convincing evidence, that the interest

7 not federal or Illinois tax avoidance; or

8    (iv) an item of interest paid, accrued, or

10 the taxpayer establishes by clear and convincing 
11 evidence that the adjustments are unreasonable; or 
12 if the taxpayer and the Director agree in writing 
13 to the application or use of an alternative method 
14 of apportionment under Section 304(f).

15    Nothing in this subsection shall preclude the 
16 Director from making any other adjustment 
17 otherwise allowed under Section 404 of this Act for 
18 any tax year beginning after the effective date of 
19 this amendment provided such adjustment is made 
20 pursuant to regulation adopted by the Department 
21 and such regulations provide methods and standards 
22 by which the Department will utilize its authority 
23 under Section 404 of this Act;

24   (E-13) An amount equal to the amount of intangible 
25 expenses and costs otherwise allowed as a deduction in 
26 computing base income, and that were paid, accrued, or 
 
 
HB2486- 34 -LRB098 09354 HLH 39495 b


1 incurred, directly or indirectly, (i) for taxable 
2 years ending on or after December 31, 2004, to a 
3 foreign person who would be a member of the same 
4 unitary business group but for the fact that the 
5 foreign person's business activity outside the United 
6 States is 80% or more of that person's total business 
7 activity and (ii) for taxable years ending on or after 
8 December 31, 2008, to a person who would be a member of 
9 the same unitary business group but for the fact that 
10 the person is prohibited under Section 1501(a)(27) 
11 from being included in the unitary business group 
12 because he or she is ordinarily required to apportion 
13 business income under different subsections of Section 
14 304. The addition modification required by this 
15 subparagraph shall be reduced to the extent that 
16 dividends were included in base income of the unitary 
17 group for the same taxable year and received by the 
18 taxpayer or by a member of the taxpayer's unitary 
19 business group (including amounts included in gross 
20 income pursuant to Sections 951 through 964 of the 
21 Internal Revenue Code and amounts included in gross 
22 income under Section 78 of the Internal Revenue Code) 
23 with respect to the stock of the same person to whom 
24 the intangible expenses and costs were directly or 
25 indirectly paid, incurred, or accrued. The preceding 
26 sentence shall not apply to the extent that the same

20 indirectly, from a transaction with a person who is 
21 subject in a foreign country or state, other than a 
22 state which requires mandatory unitary reporting, 
23 to a tax on or measured by net income with respect

3 following:
4     (a) the person during the same taxable

20 or if the taxpayer and the Director agree in 
21 writing to the application or use of an alternative

14 included in the unitary business group because he or 
15 she is ordinarily required to apportion business 
16 income under different subsections of Section 304. The 
17 addition modification required by this subparagraph 
18 shall be reduced to the extent that dividends were 
19 included in base income of the unitary group for the

23 who would be a member of the same unitary business 
24 group but for the fact that the person is prohibited 
25 under Section 1501(a)(27) from being included in the 
26 unitary business group because he or she is ordinarily 
 
 
HB2486- 56 -LRB098 09354 HLH 39495 b


1 required to apportion business income under different 
2 subsections of Section 304. The addition modification

19 reporting, to a tax on or measured by net income 
20 with respect to such interest; or
21    (ii) an item of interest paid, accrued, or 
22 incurred, directly or indirectly, to a person if 
23 the taxpayer can establish, based on a 
24 preponderance of the evidence, both of the 
25 following:
26     (a) the person, during the same taxable 
 
 
HB2486- 57 -LRB098 09354 HLH 39495 b


1 year, paid, accrued, or incurred, the interest 
2 to a person that is not a related member, and
3     (b) the transaction giving rise to the 
4 interest expense between the taxpayer and the 
5 person did not have as a principal purpose the 
6 avoidance of Illinois income tax, and is paid 
7 pursuant to a contract or agreement that 
8 reflects an arm's-length interest rate and 
9 terms; or

10    (iii) the taxpayer can establish, based on 
11 clear and convincing evidence, that the interest 
12 paid, accrued, or incurred relates to a contract or 
13 agreement entered into at arm's-length rates and 
14 terms and the principal purpose for the payment is 
15 not federal or Illinois tax avoidance; or

16    (iv) an item of interest paid, accrued, or 
17 incurred, directly or indirectly, to a person if 
18 the taxpayer establishes by clear and convincing 
19 evidence that the adjustments are unreasonable; or 
20 if the taxpayer and the Director agree in writing 
21 to the application or use of an alternative method 
22 of apportionment under Section 304(f).

23    Nothing in this subsection shall preclude the 
24 Director from making any other adjustment 
25 otherwise allowed under Section 404 of this Act for 
26 any tax year beginning after the effective date of 
 
 
HB2486- 58 -LRB098 09354 HLH 39495 b


1 this amendment provided such adjustment is made 
2 pursuant to regulation adopted by the Department 
3 and such regulations provide methods and standards 
4 by which the Department will utilize its authority 
5 under Section 404 of this Act;

6   (G-13) An amount equal to the amount of intangible 
7 expenses and costs otherwise allowed as a deduction in 
8 computing base income, and that were paid, accrued, or 
9 incurred, directly or indirectly, (i) for taxable 
10 years ending on or after December 31, 2004, to a 
11 foreign person who would be a member of the same 
12 unitary business group but for the fact that the 
13 foreign person's business activity outside the United 
14 States is 80% or more of that person's total business 
15 activity and (ii) for taxable years ending on or after 
16 December 31, 2008, to a person who would be a member of 
17 the same unitary business group but for the fact that 
18 the person is prohibited under Section 1501(a)(27) 
19 from being included in the unitary business group 
20 because he or she is ordinarily required to apportion 
21 business income under different subsections of Section 
22 304. The addition modification required by this 
23 subparagraph shall be reduced to the extent that 
24 dividends were included in base income of the unitary 
25 group for the same taxable year and received by the 
26 taxpayer or by a member of the taxpayer's unitary 
 
 
HB2486- 59 -LRB098 09354 HLH 39495 b


1 business group (including amounts included in gross 
2 income pursuant to Sections 951 through 964 of the 
3 Internal Revenue Code and amounts included in gross 
4 income under Section 78 of the Internal Revenue Code) 
5 with respect to the stock of the same person to whom 
6 the intangible expenses and costs were directly or 
7 indirectly paid, incurred, or accrued. The preceding 
8 sentence shall not apply to the extent that the same 
9 dividends caused a reduction to the addition 
10 modification required under Section 203(c)(2)(G-12) of 
11 this Act. As used in this subparagraph, the term 
12 "intangible expenses and costs" includes: (1) 
13 expenses, losses, and costs for or related to the 
14 direct or indirect acquisition, use, maintenance or 
15 management, ownership, sale, exchange, or any other 
16 disposition of intangible property; (2) losses 
17 incurred, directly or indirectly, from factoring 
18 transactions or discounting transactions; (3) royalty, 
19 patent, technical, and copyright fees; (4) licensing 
20 fees; and (5) other similar expenses and costs. For 
21 purposes of this subparagraph, "intangible property" 
22 includes patents, patent applications, trade names, 
23 trademarks, service marks, copyrights, mask works, 
24 trade secrets, and similar types of intangible assets.
25   This paragraph shall not apply to the following:
26    (i) any item of intangible expenses or costs 
 
 
HB2486- 60 -LRB098 09354 HLH 39495 b


1 paid, accrued, or incurred, directly or 
2 indirectly, from a transaction with a person who is 
3 subject in a foreign country or state, other than a 
4 state which requires mandatory unitary reporting, 
5 to a tax on or measured by net income with respect 
6 to such item; or
7    (ii) any item of intangible expense or cost 
8 paid, accrued, or incurred, directly or 
9 indirectly, if the taxpayer can establish, based 
10 on a preponderance of the evidence, both of the 
11 following:
12     (a) the person during the same taxable 
13 year paid, accrued, or incurred, the 
14 intangible expense or cost to a person that is 
15 not a related member, and
16     (b) the transaction giving rise to the 
17 intangible expense or cost between the 
18 taxpayer and the person did not have as a 
19 principal purpose the avoidance of Illinois 
20 income tax, and is paid pursuant to a contract 
21 or agreement that reflects arm's-length terms; 
22 or
23    (iii) any item of intangible expense or cost 
24 paid, accrued, or incurred, directly or 
25 indirectly, from a transaction with a person if the 
26 taxpayer establishes by clear and convincing 
 
 
HB2486- 61 -LRB098 09354 HLH 39495 b


1 evidence, that the adjustments are unreasonable; 
2 or if the taxpayer and the Director agree in 
3 writing to the application or use of an alternative 
4 method of apportionment under Section 304(f);

5    Nothing in this subsection shall preclude the 
6 Director from making any other adjustment 
7 otherwise allowed under Section 404 of this Act for 
8 any tax year beginning after the effective date of 
9 this amendment provided such adjustment is made 
10 pursuant to regulation adopted by the Department 
11 and such regulations provide methods and standards 
12 by which the Department will utilize its authority 
13 under Section 404 of this Act;

14   (G-14) For taxable years ending on or after 
15 December 31, 2008, an amount equal to the amount of 
16 insurance premium expenses and costs otherwise allowed 
17 as a deduction in computing base income, and that were 
18 paid, accrued, or incurred, directly or indirectly, to 
19 a person who would be a member of the same unitary 
20 business group but for the fact that the person is 
21 prohibited under Section 1501(a)(27) from being 
22 included in the unitary business group because he or 
23 she is ordinarily required to apportion business 
24 income under different subsections of Section 304. The 
25 addition modification required by this subparagraph 
26 shall be reduced to the extent that dividends were 
 
 
HB2486- 62 -LRB098 09354 HLH 39495 b


1 included in base income of the unitary group for the 
2 same taxable year and received by the taxpayer or by a

5 Sections 951 through 964 of the Internal Revenue Code 
6 and amounts included in gross income under Section 78 
7 of the Internal Revenue Code) with respect to the stock 
8 of the same person to whom the premiums and costs were 
9 directly or indirectly paid, incurred, or accrued. The 
10 preceding sentence does not apply to the extent that 
11 the same dividends caused a reduction to the addition 
12 modification required under Section 203(c)(2)(G-12) or 
13 Section 203(c)(2)(G-13) of this Act;
14   (G-15) An amount equal to the credit allowable to

or by reason of the Constitution, 
14 treaties or statutes of the United States;
provided 
15 that, in the case of any statute of this State that

15 Internal Revenue Code;
16   (D-6) If the taxpayer sells, transfers, abandons,

21 required to apportion business income under different 
22 subsections of Section 304. The addition modification 
23 required by this subparagraph shall be reduced to the 
24 extent that dividends were included in base income of 
25 the unitary group for the same taxable year and

15    (ii) an item of interest paid, accrued, or

17 the taxpayer can establish, based on a 
18 preponderance of the evidence, both of the 
19 following:

21 year, paid, accrued, or incurred, the interest 
22 to a person that is not a related member, and
23     (b) the transaction giving rise to the 
24 interest expense between the taxpayer and the 
25 person did not have as a principal purpose the 
26 avoidance of Illinois income tax, and is paid 
 
 
HB2486- 76 -LRB098 09354 HLH 39495 b


1 pursuant to a contract or agreement that 
2 reflects an arm's-length interest rate and 
3 terms; or

4    (iii) the taxpayer can establish, based on 
5 clear and convincing evidence, that the interest

15 to the application or use of an alternative method 
16 of apportionment under Section 304(f).

20 any tax year beginning after the effective date of 
21 this amendment provided such adjustment is made 
22 pursuant to regulation adopted by the Department 
23 and such regulations provide methods and standards 
24 by which the Department will utilize its authority 
25 under Section 404 of this Act; and

8 States is 80% or more of that person's total business 
9 activity and (ii) for taxable years ending on or after 
10 December 31, 2008, to a person who would be a member of 
11 the same unitary business group but for the fact that 
12 the person is prohibited under Section 1501(a)(27)

18 dividends were included in base income of the unitary 
19 group for the same taxable year and received by the 
20 taxpayer or by a member of the taxpayer's unitary

2 sentence shall not apply to the extent that the same

21 paid, accrued, or incurred, directly or 
22 indirectly, from a transaction with a person who is 
23 subject in a foreign country or state, other than a

1    (ii) any item of intangible expense or cost

5 following:
6     (a) the person during the same taxable 
7 year paid, accrued, or incurred, the 
8 intangible expense or cost to a person that is 
9 not a related member, and
10     (b) the transaction giving rise to the 
11 intangible expense or cost between the

14 income tax, and is paid pursuant to a contract 
15 or agreement that reflects arm's-length terms; 
16 or
17    (iii) any item of intangible expense or cost 
18 paid, accrued, or incurred, directly or 
19 indirectly, from a transaction with a person if the

12 accrued, or incurred, directly or indirectly, to a 
13 person who would be a member of the same unitary 
14 business group but for the fact that the person is 
15 prohibited under Section 1501(a)(27) from being

17 she is ordinarily required to apportion business 
18 income under different subsections of Section 304. The

21 filed a separate
return for federal income tax purposes 
22 for the taxable year and each
preceding taxable year 
23 for which it was a member of an affiliated group.
For 
24 purposes of this subparagraph, the taxpayer's separate 
25 taxable
income shall be determined as if the election 
26 provided by Section
243(b) (2) of the Internal Revenue 
 
 
HB2486- 92 -LRB098 09354 HLH 39495 b


1 Code had been in effect for all such years;
2   (F) Cooperatives. In the case of a cooperative 
3 corporation or
association, the taxable income of such 
4 organization determined in
accordance with the 
5 provisions of Section 1381 through 1388 of the

7 against offsetting losses from patronage activities 
8 against income from nonpatronage activities; except 
9 that a cooperative corporation or association may make 
10 an election to follow its federal income tax treatment 
11 of patronage losses and nonpatronage losses. In the 
12 event such election is made, such losses shall be 
13 computed and carried over in a manner consistent with 
14 subsection (a) of Section 207 of this Act and 
15 apportioned by the apportionment factor reported by 
16 the cooperative on its Illinois income tax return filed 
17 for the taxable year in which the losses are incurred. 
18 The election shall be effective for all taxable years 
19 with original returns due on or after the date of the 
20 election. In addition, the cooperative may file an 
21 amended return or returns, as allowed under this Act, 
22 to provide that the election shall be effective for 
23 losses incurred or carried forward for taxable years 
24 occurring prior to the date of the election. Once made, 
25 the election may only be revoked upon approval of the 
26 Director. The Department shall adopt rules setting 
 
 
HB2486- 93 -LRB098 09354 HLH 39495 b


1 forth requirements for documenting the elections and 
2 any resulting Illinois net loss and the standards to be 
3 used by the Director in evaluating requests to revoke 
4 elections. Public Act 96-932 is declaratory of 
5 existing law; 
6   (G) Subchapter S corporations. In the case of: (i) 
7 a Subchapter S
corporation for which there is in effect 
8 an election for the taxable year
under Section 1362 of 
9 the Internal Revenue Code, the taxable income of such

10 corporation determined in accordance with Section 
11 1363(b) of the Internal
Revenue Code, except that 
12 taxable income shall take into
account those items 
13 which are required by Section 1363(b)(1) of the

14 Internal Revenue Code to be separately stated; and (ii) 
15 a Subchapter
S corporation for which there is in effect 
16 a federal election to opt out of
the provisions of the 
17 Subchapter S Revision Act of 1982 and have applied

18 instead the prior federal Subchapter S rules as in 
19 effect on July 1, 1982,
the taxable income of such 
20 corporation determined in accordance with the
federal 
21 Subchapter S rules as in effect on July 1, 1982; and
22   (H) Partnerships. In the case of a partnership, 
23 taxable income
determined in accordance with Section 
24 703 of the Internal Revenue Code,

25 income shall take into account those items which are

26 required by Section 703(a)(1) to be separately stated 
 
 
HB2486- 94 -LRB098 09354 HLH 39495 b


1 but which would be
taken into account by an individual 
2 in calculating his taxable income.
3  (3) Recapture of business expenses on disposition of 
4 asset or business. Notwithstanding any other law to the 
5 contrary, if in prior years income from an asset or 
6 business has been classified as business income and in a 
7 later year is demonstrated to be non-business income, then 
8 all expenses, without limitation, deducted in such later 
9 year and in the 2 immediately preceding taxable years 
10 related to that asset or business that generated the 
11 non-business income shall be added back and recaptured as 
12 business income in the year of the disposition of the asset 
13 or business. Such amount shall be apportioned to Illinois 
14 using the greater of the apportionment fraction computed 
15 for the business under Section 304 of this Act for the 
16 taxable year or the average of the apportionment fractions 
17 computed for the business under Section 304 of this Act for 
18 the taxable year and for the 2 immediately preceding 
19 taxable years.

25 amounts (to the
extent consisting of gain reportable 
 
 
HB2486- 95 -LRB098 09354 HLH 39495 b


1 under the provisions of Section
1245 or 1250 of the

4   (B) The lesser of (i) the sum of the pre-August 1, 
5 1969 appreciation
amounts (to the extent consisting of 
6 capital gain) for all property in
respect of which such 
7 gain was reported for federal income tax purposes
for 
8 the taxable year, or (ii) the net capital gain for the 
9 taxable year,
reduced in either case by any amount of 
10 such gain included in the amount
determined under

13   (A) If the fair market value of property referred 
14 to in paragraph
(1) was readily ascertainable on August 
15 1, 1969, the pre-August 1, 1969
appreciation amount for

20 effect on that date), or (ii) the total gain realized 
21 and
reportable for federal income tax purposes in 
22 respect of the sale,
exchange or other disposition of

(1) was not readily ascertainable on 
26 August 1, 1969, the pre-August 1,
1969 appreciation 
 
 
HB2486- 96 -LRB098 09354 HLH 39495 b


1 amount for such property is that amount which bears
the 
2 same ratio to the total gain reported in respect of the 
3 property for
federal income tax purposes for the 
4 taxable year, as the number of full
calendar months in 
5 that part of the taxpayer's holding period for the

6 property ending July 31, 1969 bears to the number of 
7 full calendar
months in the taxpayer's entire holding 
8 period for the
property.

10 regulations as may be
necessary to carry out the 
11 purposes of this paragraph.
