9 subparagraph (L) of this paragraph (2) prior to July 1,
10 1991, the retrospective application date of Article 4
11 of Public Act 87-17. In the case of multi-unit or

14 portion of the total taxes for the entire property
15 which is attributable to such principal residence;

17 deductions taken in all taxable years under
18 subparagraph (Z) with respect to that property.

4 allowed as a deduction in computing base income for
5 interest paid, accrued, or incurred, directly or
6 indirectly, (i) for taxable years ending on or after

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

SB1973- 5 -LRB097 10260 HLH 50463 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

SB1973- 6 -LRB097 10260 HLH 50463 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

SB1973- 7 -LRB097 10260 HLH 50463 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"

SB1973- 8 -LRB097 10260 HLH 50463 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:

SB1973- 9 -LRB097 10260 HLH 50463 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

SB1973- 10 -LRB097 10260 HLH 50463 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

SB1973- 11 -LRB097 10260 HLH 50463 b
1 modification required under Section 203(a)(2)(D-17) or
2 Section 203(a)(2)(D-18) of this Act.

18 required by this subparagraph shall be reduced to the
19 extent that dividends were included in base income of
20 the unitary group for the same taxable year and

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

SB1973- 32 -LRB097 10260 HLH 50463 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 (E-13) 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

SB1973- 33 -LRB097 10260 HLH 50463 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 pursuant to Sections 951 through 964 of the
18 Internal Revenue Code and amounts included in gross
19 income under Section 78 of the Internal Revenue Code)
20 with respect to the stock of the same person to whom
21 the intangible expenses and costs were directly or
22 indirectly paid, incurred, or accrued. The preceding
23 sentence shall not apply to the extent that the same
24 dividends caused a reduction to the addition
25 modification required under Section 203(b)(2)(E-12) of
26 this Act. As used in this subparagraph, the term

SB1973- 34 -LRB097 10260 HLH 50463 b

3 indirect acquisition, use, maintenance or management,
4 ownership, sale, exchange, or any other disposition of
5 intangible property; (2) losses incurred, directly or
6 indirectly, from factoring transactions or discounting
7 transactions; (3) royalty, patent, technical, and
8 copyright fees; (4) licensing fees; and (5) other
9 similar expenses and costs. For purposes of this
10 subparagraph, "intangible property" includes patents,
11 patent applications, trade names, trademarks, service
12 marks, copyrights, mask works, trade secrets, and
13 similar types of intangible 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

26 following:

SB1973- 35 -LRB097 10260 HLH 50463 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

SB1973- 36 -LRB097 10260 HLH 50463 b
1 by which the Department will utilize its authority
2 under Section 404 of this Act;
3 (E-14) 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

SB1973- 37 -LRB097 10260 HLH 50463 b
1 modification required under Section 203(b)(2)(E-12) or
2 Section 203(b)(2)(E-13) of this Act;

4 (a) the person, during the same taxable
5 year, paid, accrued, or incurred, the interest
6 to a person that is not a related member, and
7 (b) the transaction giving rise to the
8 interest expense between the taxpayer and the

14 years ending on or after December 31, 2004, to a
15 foreign person who would be a member of the same
16 unitary business group but for the fact that the
17 foreign person's business activity outside the United
18 States is 80% or more of that person's total business
19 activity and (ii) for taxable years ending on or after
20 December 31, 2008, to a person who would be a member of
21 the same unitary business group but for the fact that
22 the person is prohibited under Section 1501(a)(27)
23 from being included in the unitary business group
24 because he or she is ordinarily required to apportion
25 business income under different subsections of Section
26 304. The addition modification required by this

8 income under Section 78 of the Internal Revenue Code)
9 with respect to the stock of the same person to whom
10 the intangible expenses and costs were directly or
11 indirectly paid, incurred, or accrued. The preceding
12 sentence shall not apply to the extent that the same
13 dividends caused a reduction to the addition
14 modification required under Section 203(c)(2)(G-12) of
15 this Act. As used in this subparagraph, the term
16 "intangible expenses and costs" includes: (1)
17 expenses, losses, and costs for or related to the

6 indirectly, from a transaction with a person who is
7 subject in a foreign country or state, other than a
8 state which requires mandatory unitary reporting,

10 to such item; or

11 following:
12 (a) the person, during the same taxable
13 year, paid, accrued, or incurred, the interest
14 to a person that is not a related member, and
15 (b) the transaction giving rise to the
16 interest expense between the taxpayer and the
17 person did not have as a principal purpose the
18 avoidance of Illinois income tax, and is paid

21 terms; or
22 (iii) the taxpayer can establish, based on
23 clear and convincing evidence, that the interest
24 paid, accrued, or incurred relates to a contract or
25 agreement entered into at arm's-length rates and
26 terms and the principal purpose for the payment is

SB1973- 72 -LRB097 10260 HLH 50463 b
1 not federal or Illinois tax avoidance; or
2 (iv) an item of interest paid, accrued, or

8 of apportionment under Section 304(f).
9 Nothing in this subsection shall preclude the
10 Director from making any other adjustment
11 otherwise allowed under Section 404 of this Act for
12 any tax year beginning after the effective date of

20 computing base income, and that were paid, accrued, or
21 incurred, directly or indirectly, (i) for taxable
22 years ending on or after December 31, 2004, to a
23 foreign person who would be a member of the same
24 unitary business group but for the fact that the
25 foreign person's business activity outside the United
26 States is 80% or more of that person's total business

SB1973- 73 -LRB097 10260 HLH 50463 b
1 activity and (ii) for taxable years ending on or after
2 December 31, 2008, to a person who would be a member of
3 the same unitary business group but for the fact that
4 the person is prohibited under Section 1501(a)(27)
5 from being included in the unitary business group
6 because he or she is ordinarily required to apportion
7 business income under different subsections of Section
8 304. The addition modification required by this
9 subparagraph shall be reduced to the extent that
10 dividends were included in base income of the unitary
11 group for the same taxable year and received by the
12 taxpayer or by a member of the taxpayer's unitary

16 income under Section 78 of the Internal Revenue Code)
17 with respect to the stock of the same person to whom
18 the intangible expenses and costs were directly or
19 indirectly paid, incurred or accrued. The preceding
20 sentence shall not apply to the extent that the same
21 dividends caused a reduction to the addition
22 modification required under Section 203(d)(2)(D-7) of
23 this Act. As used in this subparagraph, the term
24 "intangible expenses and costs" includes (1) expenses,
25 losses, and costs for, or related to, the direct or
26 indirect acquisition, use, maintenance or management,

SB1973- 74 -LRB097 10260 HLH 50463 b
1 ownership, sale, exchange, or any other disposition of
2 intangible property; (2) losses incurred, directly or
3 indirectly, from factoring transactions or discounting
4 transactions; (3) royalty, patent, technical, and
5 copyright fees; (4) licensing fees; and (5) other
6 similar expenses and costs. For purposes of this
7 subparagraph, "intangible property" includes patents,
8 patent applications, trade names, trademarks, service
9 marks, copyrights, mask works, trade secrets, and
10 similar types of intangible assets;
11 This paragraph shall not apply to the following:
12 (i) any item of intangible expenses or costs
13 paid, accrued, or incurred, directly or
14 indirectly, from a transaction with a person who is
15 subject in a foreign country or state, other than a
16 state which requires mandatory unitary reporting,
17 to a tax on or measured by net income with respect
18 to such item; or
19 (ii) any item of intangible expense or cost
20 paid, accrued, or incurred, directly or
21 indirectly, if the taxpayer can establish, based
22 on a preponderance of the evidence, both of the
23 following:
24 (a) the person during the same taxable
25 year paid, accrued, or incurred, the
26 intangible expense or cost to a person that is

SB1973- 75 -LRB097 10260 HLH 50463 b
1 not a related member, and
2 (b) the transaction giving rise to the
3 intangible expense or cost between the
4 taxpayer and the person did not have as a
5 principal purpose the avoidance of Illinois
6 income tax, and is paid pursuant to a contract
7 or agreement that reflects arm's-length terms;
8 or
9 (iii) any item of intangible expense or cost
10 paid, accrued, or incurred, directly or
11 indirectly, from a transaction with a person if the
12 taxpayer establishes by clear and convincing
13 evidence, that the adjustments are unreasonable;
14 or if the taxpayer and the Director agree in
15 writing to the application or use of an alternative
16 method of apportionment under Section 304(f);
17 Nothing in this subsection shall preclude the
18 Director from making any other adjustment
19 otherwise allowed under Section 404 of this Act for
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;
26 (D-9) For taxable years ending on or after December

SB1973- 76 -LRB097 10260 HLH 50463 b
1 31, 2008, an amount equal to the amount of insurance
2 premium expenses and costs otherwise allowed as a
3 deduction in computing base income, and that were paid,
4 accrued, or incurred, directly or indirectly, to a
5 person who would be a member of the same unitary
6 business group but for the fact that the person is
7 prohibited under Section 1501(a)(27) from being
8 included in the unitary business group because he or
9 she is ordinarily required to apportion business
10 income under different subsections of Section 304. The
11 addition modification required by this subparagraph
12 shall be reduced to the extent that dividends were
13 included in base income of the unitary group for the
14 same taxable year and received by the taxpayer or by a
15 member of the taxpayer's unitary business group
16 (including amounts included in gross income under
17 Sections 951 through 964 of the Internal Revenue Code
18 and amounts included in gross income under Section 78
19 of the Internal Revenue Code) with respect to the stock
20 of the same person to whom the premiums and costs were
21 directly or indirectly paid, incurred, or accrued. The

3 (1) In general. Subject to the provisions of paragraph
4 (2) and subsection (b) (3), for purposes of this Section
5 and Section 803(e), a taxpayer's gross income, adjusted
6 gross income, or taxable income for the taxable year shall
7 mean the amount of gross income, adjusted gross income or
8 taxable income properly reportable for federal income tax

SB1973- 85 -LRB097 10260 HLH 50463 b
1 subparagraph (E) of paragraph (2) of subsection (c) for
2 trusts and estates, exceed subtraction modifications, an
3 addition modification must be made under those
4 subparagraphs for any other taxable year to which the
5 taxable income less than zero (net operating loss) is
6 applied under Section 172 of the Internal Revenue Code or
7 under subparagraph (E) of paragraph (2) of this subsection
8 (e) applied in conjunction with Section 172 of the Internal
9 Revenue Code.
10 (2) Special rule. For purposes of paragraph (1) of this
11 subsection, the taxable income properly reportable for
12 federal income tax purposes shall mean:
13 (A) Certain life insurance companies. In the case
14 of a life insurance company subject to the tax imposed
15 by Section 801 of the Internal Revenue Code, life
16 insurance company taxable income, plus the amount of
17 distribution from pre-1984 policyholder surplus

3 real estate investment trust subject to the tax imposed
4 by Section 857 of the Internal Revenue Code, real

6 (E) Consolidated corporations. In the case of a
7 corporation which is a member of an affiliated group of
8 corporations filing a consolidated income tax return
9 for the taxable year for federal income tax purposes,
10 taxable income determined as if such corporation had
11 filed a separate return for federal income tax purposes
12 for the taxable year and each preceding taxable year
13 for which it was a member of an affiliated group. For
14 purposes of this subparagraph, the taxpayer's separate
15 taxable income shall be determined as if the election
16 provided by Section 243(b) (2) of the Internal Revenue
17 Code had been in effect for all such years;
18 (F) Cooperatives. In the case of a cooperative
19 corporation or association, the taxable income of such
20 organization determined in accordance with the
21 provisions of Section 1381 through 1388 of the Internal
22 Revenue Code, but without regard to the prohibition
23 against offsetting losses from patronage activities
24 against income from nonpatronage activities; except
25 that a cooperative corporation or association may make
26 an election to follow its federal income tax treatment

SB1973- 87 -LRB097 10260 HLH 50463 b
1 of patronage losses and nonpatronage losses. In the
2 event such election is made, such losses shall be
3 computed and carried over in a manner consistent with
4 subsection (a) of Section 207 of this Act and
5 apportioned by the apportionment factor reported by
6 the cooperative on its Illinois income tax return filed
7 for the taxable year in which the losses are incurred.
8 The election shall be effective for all taxable years
9 with original returns due on or after the date of the
10 election. In addition, the cooperative may file an
11 amended return or returns, as allowed under this Act,
12 to provide that the election shall be effective for
13 losses incurred or carried forward for taxable years
14 occurring prior to the date of the election. Once made,
15 the election may only be revoked upon approval of the
16 Director. The Department shall adopt rules setting
17 forth requirements for documenting the elections and
18 any resulting Illinois net loss and the standards to be
19 used by the Director in evaluating requests to revoke
20 elections. Public Act 96-932 This amendatory Act of the
21 96th General Assembly is declaratory of existing law;
22 (G) Subchapter S corporations. In the case of: (i)
23 a Subchapter S corporation for which there is in effect
24 an election for the taxable year under Section 1362 of
25 the Internal Revenue Code, the taxable income of such
26 corporation determined in accordance with Section

SB1973- 88 -LRB097 10260 HLH 50463 b
1 1363(b) of the Internal Revenue Code, except that
2 taxable income shall take into account those items
3 which are required by Section 1363(b)(1) of the
4 Internal Revenue Code to be separately stated; and (ii)
5 a Subchapter S corporation for which there is in effect
6 a federal election to opt out of the provisions of the
7 Subchapter S Revision Act of 1982 and have applied
8 instead the prior federal Subchapter S rules as in
9 effect on July 1, 1982, the taxable income of such
10 corporation determined in accordance with the federal
11 Subchapter S rules as in effect on July 1, 1982; and
12 (H) Partnerships. In the case of a partnership,
13 taxable income determined in accordance with Section
14 703 of the Internal Revenue Code, except that taxable
15 income shall take into account those items which are
16 required by Section 703(a)(1) to be separately stated
17 but which would be taken into account by an individual
18 in calculating his taxable income.
19 (3) Recapture of business expenses on disposition of
20 asset or business. Notwithstanding any other law to the
21 contrary, if in prior years income from an asset or
22 business has been classified as business income and in a
23 later year is demonstrated to be non-business income, then
24 all expenses, without limitation, deducted in such later
25 year and in the 2 immediately preceding taxable years
26 related to that asset or business that generated the

SB1973- 89 -LRB097 10260 HLH 50463 b
1 non-business income shall be added back and recaptured as
2 business income in the year of the disposition of the asset
3 or business. Such amount shall be apportioned to Illinois
4 using the greater of the apportionment fraction computed
5 for the business under Section 304 of this Act for the
6 taxable year or the average of the apportionment fractions
7 computed for the business under Section 304 of this Act for
8 the taxable year and for the 2 immediately preceding
9 taxable years.
10 (f) Valuation limitation amount.
11 (1) In general. The valuation limitation amount
12 referred to in subsections (a) (2) (G), (c) (2) (I) and
13 (d)(2) (E) is an amount equal to:
14 (A) The sum of the pre-August 1, 1969 appreciation
15 amounts (to the extent consisting of gain reportable
16 under the provisions of Section 1245 or 1250 of the
17 Internal Revenue Code) for all property in respect of
18 which such gain was reported for the taxable year; plus
19 (B) The lesser of (i) the sum of the pre-August 1,
20 1969 appreciation amounts (to the extent consisting of
21 capital gain) for all property in respect of which such
22 gain was reported for federal income tax purposes for
23 the taxable year, or (ii) the net capital gain for the
24 taxable year, reduced in either case by any amount of
25 such gain included in the amount determined under

SB1973- 90 -LRB097 10260 HLH 50463 b
1 subsection (a) (2) (F) or (c) (2) (H).
2 (2) Pre-August 1, 1969 appreciation amount.
3 (A) If the fair market value of property referred
4 to in paragraph (1) was readily ascertainable on August
5 1, 1969, the pre-August 1, 1969 appreciation amount for
6 such property is the lesser of (i) the excess of such
7 fair market value over the taxpayer's basis (for
8 determining gain) for such property on that date
9 (determined under the Internal Revenue Code as in
10 effect on that date), or (ii) the total gain realized
11 and reportable for federal income tax purposes in
12 respect of the sale, exchange or other disposition of
13 such property.
14 (B) If the fair market value of property referred
15 to in paragraph (1) was not readily ascertainable on
16 August 1, 1969, the pre-August 1, 1969 appreciation
17 amount for such property is that amount which bears the
18 same ratio to the total gain reported in respect of the
19 property for federal income tax purposes for the
20 taxable year, as the number of full calendar months in
21 that part of the taxpayer's holding period for the
22 property ending July 31, 1969 bears to the number of
23 full calendar months in the taxpayer's entire holding
24 period for the property.
25 (C) The Department shall prescribe such
26 regulations as may be necessary to carry out the

SB1973- 91 -LRB097 10260 HLH 50463 b
1 purposes of this paragraph.
2 (g) Double deductions. Unless specifically provided
3otherwise, nothing in this Section shall permit the same item
4to be deducted more than once.
5 (h) Legislative intention. Except as expressly provided by
6this Section there shall be no modifications or limitations on
7the amounts of income, gain, loss or deduction taken into
8account in determining gross income, adjusted gross income or
9taxable income for federal income tax purposes for the taxable
10year, or in the amount of such items entering into the
11computation of base income and net income under this Act for
12such taxable year, whether in respect of property values as of
13August 1, 1969 or otherwise.
