12 and nonprescription medicines, drugs, medical appliances and
13 insulin, urine testing materials, syringes and needles used
14 by diabetics, which occurred in municipalities, shall be
15 distributed to each municipality based upon the sales which

5 registration purposes are given as being in such
6 municipality. The remainder of the money paid into the Local
7 Government Tax Fund from such sales shall be distributed to

29 the sale is exempt under the United States Constitution as a
30 sale in interstate or foreign commerce.
31 Whenever the Department determines that a refund of money
32 paid into the Local Government Tax Fund should be made to a
33 claimant instead of issuing a credit memorandum, the

15 Department determines is necessary to offset any amounts
16 which were erroneously paid to a different taxing body, and
17 not including an amount equal to the amount of refunds made
18 during the second preceding calendar month by the Department,
19 and not including any amount which the Department determines
20 is necessary to offset any amounts which are payable to a

-4- LRB9113285SMdvam05
1 discovered.
2 The provisions directing the distributions from the

23 this Section, the tax imposed by this Act is at the rate of
24 6.25% of either the selling price or the fair market value,
25 if any, of the tangible personal property. In all cases
26 where property functionally used or consumed is the same as
27 the property that was purchased at retail, then the tax is
28 imposed on the selling price of the property. In all cases
29 where property functionally used or consumed is a by-product
30 or waste product that has been refined, manufactured, or

32 imposed on the lower of the fair market value, if any, of the
-8- LRB9113285SMdvam05
1 specific property so used in this State or on the selling
2 price of the property purchased at retail. For purposes of
3 this Section "fair market value" means the price at which
4 property would change hands between a willing buyer and a
5 willing seller, neither being under any compulsion to buy or
6 sell and both having reasonable knowledge of the relevant
7 facts. The fair market value shall be established by Illinois
8 sales by the taxpayer of the same property as that
9 functionally used or consumed, or if there are no such sales
10 by the taxpayer, then comparable sales or purchases of
11 property of like kind and character in Illinois.

23 consumed off the premises where it is sold (other than
24 alcoholic beverages, soft drinks, and food that has been
25 prepared for immediate consumption) and prescription and
26 nonprescription medicines, drugs, medical appliances,
27 modifications to a motor vehicle for the purpose of rendering
28 it usable by a disabled person, and insulin, urine testing
29 materials, syringes, and needles used by diabetics, for human
30 use, the tax is imposed at the rate of 1%. For the purposes
31 of this Section, the term "soft drinks" means any complete,
32 finished, ready-to-use, non-alcoholic drink, whether
33 carbonated or not, including but not limited to soda water,
34 cola, fruit juice, vegetable juice, carbonated water, and all
-9- LRB9113285SMdvam05
1 other preparations commonly known as soft drinks of whatever
2 kind or description that are contained in any closed or
3 sealed bottle, can, carton, or container, regardless of size.

17 taxable under this Act, the "selling price" on which the tax
18 is computed shall be reduced by an amount that represents a
19 reasonable allowance for depreciation for the period of prior
20 out-of-state use.

-13- LRB9113285SMdvam05

30 Milk and Milk Products Act, or drinks containing 50% or more
31 natural fruit or vegetable juice.
