3        included in gross income under Sections 951 through

5        in gross income under Section 78 of the Internal
6        Revenue Code) with respect to the stock of the same
7        person to whom the interest was paid, accrued, or
8        incurred. For taxable years ending on and after
9        December 31, 2025, for purposes of applying this
10        paragraph in the case of a taxpayer to which Section
11        163(j) of the Internal Revenue Code applies for the
12        taxable year, the reduction in the amount of interest
13        for which a deduction is allowed by reason of Section
14        163(j) shall be treated as allocable first to persons
15        who are not foreign persons referred to in this
16        paragraph and then to such foreign persons.
17            For taxable years ending before December 31, 2025,
18        this paragraph shall not apply to the following:
19                (i) an item of interest paid, accrued, or
20            incurred, directly or indirectly, to a person who
21            is subject in a foreign country or state, other
22            than a state which requires mandatory unitary
23            reporting, to a tax on or measured by net income
24            with respect to such interest; or
25                (ii) an item of interest paid, accrued, or
26            incurred, directly or indirectly, to a person if

 

 

HB4877- 6 -LRB104 18117 HLH 31556 b

1            the taxpayer can establish, based on a
2            preponderance of the evidence, both of the
3            following:
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
9                person did not have as a principal purpose the
10                avoidance of Illinois income tax, and is paid
11                pursuant to a contract or agreement that
12                reflects an arm's-length interest rate and
13                terms; or
14                (iii) the taxpayer can establish, based on
15            clear and convincing evidence, that the interest
16            paid, accrued, or incurred relates to a contract
17            or agreement entered into at arm's-length rates
18            and terms and the principal purpose for the
19            payment is not federal or Illinois tax avoidance;
20            or
21                (iv) an item of interest paid, accrued, or
22            incurred, directly or indirectly, to a person if
23            the taxpayer establishes by clear and convincing
24            evidence that the adjustments are unreasonable; or
25            if the taxpayer and the Director agree in writing
26            to the application or use of an alternative method

 

 

HB4877- 7 -LRB104 18117 HLH 31556 b

1            of apportionment under Section 304(f).
2            For taxable years ending on or after December 31,
3        2025, 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 if
6            the taxpayer can establish, based on a
7            preponderance of the evidence, both of the
8            following:
9                    (a) the person, during the same taxable
10                year, paid, accrued, or incurred, the interest
11                to a person that is not a related member, and
12                    (b) the transaction giving rise to the
13                interest expense between the taxpayer and the
14                person did not have as a principal purpose the
15                avoidance of Illinois income tax and is paid
16                pursuant to a contract or agreement that
17                reflects an arm's-length interest rate and
18                terms; or
19                (ii) an item of interest paid, accrued, or
20            incurred, directly or indirectly, to a person if
21            the taxpayer establishes by clear and convincing
22            evidence that the adjustments are unreasonable; or
23            if the taxpayer and the Director agree in writing
24            to the application or use of an alternative method
25            of apportionment under Section 304(f).
26            Nothing in this subsection shall preclude the

 

 

HB4877- 8 -LRB104 18117 HLH 31556 b

1        Director from making any other adjustment otherwise
2        allowed under Section 404 of this Act for any tax year
3        beginning after the effective date of this amendment
4        provided such adjustment is made pursuant to
5        regulation adopted by the Department and such
6        regulations provide methods and standards by which the
7        Department will utilize its authority under Section
8        404 of this Act;
9            (D-18) An amount equal to the amount of intangible
10        expenses and costs otherwise allowed as a deduction in
11        computing base income, and that were paid, accrued, or
12        incurred, directly or indirectly, (i) for taxable
13        years ending on or after December 31, 2004, to a
14        foreign person who would be a member of the same
15        unitary business group but for the fact that the
16        foreign person's business activity outside the United
17        States is 80% or more of that person's total business
18        activity and (ii) for taxable years ending on or after
19        December 31, 2008, to a person who would be a member of
20        the same unitary business group but for the fact that
21        the person is prohibited under Section 1501(a)(27)
22        from being included in the unitary business group
23        because he or she is ordinarily required to apportion
24        business income under different subsections of Section
25        304. The addition modification required by this
26        subparagraph shall be reduced to the extent that

 

 

HB4877- 9 -LRB104 18117 HLH 31556 b

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

 

 

HB4877- 10 -LRB104 18117 HLH 31556 b

1        similar types of intangible assets.
2            For taxable years ending before December 31, 2025,
3        this paragraph shall not apply to the following:
4                (i) any item of intangible expenses or costs
5            paid, accrued, or incurred, directly or
6            indirectly, from a transaction with a person who
7            is subject in a foreign country or state, other
8            than a state which requires mandatory unitary
9            reporting, to a tax on or measured by net income
10            with respect to such item; or
11                (ii) any item of intangible expense or cost
12            paid, accrued, or incurred, directly or
13            indirectly, if the taxpayer can establish, based
14            on a preponderance of the evidence, both of the
15            following:
16                    (a) the person during the same taxable
17                year paid, accrued, or incurred, the
18                intangible expense or cost to a person that is
19                not a related member, and
20                    (b) the transaction giving rise to the
21                intangible expense or cost between the
22                taxpayer and the person did not have as a
23                principal purpose the avoidance of Illinois
24                income tax, and is paid pursuant to a contract
25                or agreement that reflects arm's-length terms;
26                or

 

 

HB4877- 11 -LRB104 18117 HLH 31556 b

1                (iii) any item of intangible expense or cost
2            paid, accrued, or incurred, directly or
3            indirectly, from a transaction with a person if
4            the taxpayer establishes by clear and convincing
5            evidence, that the adjustments are unreasonable;
6            or if the taxpayer and the Director agree in
7            writing to the application or use of an
8            alternative method of apportionment under Section
9            304(f);
10            For taxable years ending on or after December 31,
11        2025, this paragraph shall not apply to the following:
12                (i) any item of intangible expense or cost
13            paid, accrued, or incurred, directly or
14            indirectly, if the taxpayer can establish, based
15            on a preponderance of the evidence, both of the
16            following:
17                    (a) the person during the same taxable
18                year paid, accrued, or incurred, the
19                intangible expense or cost to a person that is
20                not a related member, and
21                    (b) the transaction giving rise to the
22                intangible expense or cost between the
23                taxpayer and the person did not have as a
24                principal purpose the avoidance of Illinois
25                income tax, and is paid pursuant to a contract
26                or agreement that reflects arm's-length terms;

 

 

HB4877- 12 -LRB104 18117 HLH 31556 b

1                or
2                (ii) any item of intangible expense or cost
3            paid, accrued, or incurred, directly or
4            indirectly, from a transaction with a person if
5            the taxpayer establishes by clear and convincing
6            evidence, that the adjustments are unreasonable;
7            or if the taxpayer and the Director agree in
8            writing to the application or use of an
9            alternative method of apportionment under Section
10            304(f).
11            Nothing in this subsection shall preclude the
12        Director from making any other adjustment otherwise
13        allowed under Section 404 of this Act for any tax year
14        beginning after the effective date of this amendment
15        provided such adjustment is made pursuant to
16        regulation adopted by the Department and such
17        regulations provide methods and standards by which the
18        Department will utilize its authority under Section
19        404 of this Act;
20            (D-19) For taxable years ending on or after
21        December 31, 2008, an amount equal to the amount of
22        insurance premium expenses and costs otherwise allowed
23        as a deduction in computing base income, and that were
24        paid, accrued, or incurred, directly or indirectly, to
25        a person who would be a member of the same unitary
26        business group but for the fact that the person is

 

 

HB4877- 13 -LRB104 18117 HLH 31556 b

1        prohibited under Section 1501(a)(27) from being
2        included in the unitary business group because he or
3        she is ordinarily required to apportion business
4        income under different subsections of Section 304. The
5        addition modification required by this subparagraph
6        shall be reduced to the extent that dividends were
7        included in base income of the unitary group for the
8        same taxable year and received by the taxpayer or by a
9        member of the taxpayer's unitary business group
10        (including amounts included in gross income under
11        Sections 951 through 964 of the Internal Revenue Code
12        and amounts included in gross income under Section 78
13        of the Internal Revenue Code) with respect to the
14        stock of the same person to whom the premiums and costs
15        were directly or indirectly paid, incurred, or
16        accrued. The preceding sentence does not apply to the
17        extent that the same dividends caused a reduction to
18        the addition modification required under Section
19        203(a)(2)(D-17) or Section 203(a)(2)(D-18) of this
20        Act;
21            (D-20) For taxable years beginning on or after
22        January 1, 2002 and ending on or before December 31,
23        2006, in the case of a distribution from a qualified
24        tuition program under Section 529 of the Internal
25        Revenue Code, other than (i) a distribution from a
26        College Savings Pool created under Section 16.5 of the

17        of in-state qualified tuition programs by informing
18        Illinois residents directly and, where applicable, to

20        program to inform in-state residents of the existence
21        of in-state qualified tuition programs at least
22        annually, an amount equal to the amount excluded from
23        gross income under Section 529(c)(3)(B).
24            For the purposes of this subparagraph (D-20), a
25        qualified tuition program has made reasonable efforts
26        if it makes disclosures (which may use the term

17        who are not foreign persons referred to in this
18        paragraph and then to such foreign persons.

10                interest expense between the taxpayer and the
11                person did not have as a principal purpose the
12                avoidance of Illinois income tax, and is paid
13                pursuant to a contract or agreement that
14                reflects an arm's-length interest rate and
15                terms; or
16                (iii) the taxpayer can establish, based on
17            clear and convincing evidence, that the interest
18            paid, accrued, or incurred relates to a contract
19            or agreement entered into at arm's-length rates
20            and terms and the principal purpose for the
21            payment is not federal or Illinois tax avoidance;
22            or
23                (iv) an item of interest paid, accrued, or
24            incurred, directly or indirectly, to a person if
25            the taxpayer establishes by clear and convincing
26            evidence that the adjustments are unreasonable; or

1            if the taxpayer and the Director agree in writing
2            to the application or use of an alternative method
3            of apportionment under Section 304(f).
4            For taxable years ending on or after December 31,
5        2025, this paragraph shall not apply to the following:
6                (i) an item of interest paid, accrued, or

HB4877- 43 -LRB104 18117 HLH 31556 b

1            of apportionment under Section 304(f).
2            Nothing in this subsection shall preclude the
3        Director from making any other adjustment otherwise

5        beginning after the effective date of this amendment
6        provided such adjustment is made pursuant to

20        activity and (ii) for taxable years ending on or after
21        December 31, 2008, to a person who would be a member of

24        from being included in the unitary business group
25        because he or she is ordinarily required to apportion
26        business income under different subsections of Section

6        business group (including amounts included in gross
7        income pursuant to Sections 951 through 964 of the
8        Internal Revenue Code and amounts included in gross
9        income under Section 78 of the Internal Revenue Code)
10        with respect to the stock of the same person to whom
11        the intangible expenses and costs were directly or
12        indirectly paid, incurred, or accrued. The preceding
13        sentence shall not apply to the extent that the same
14        dividends caused a reduction to the addition

6            the taxpayer establishes by clear and convincing
7            evidence, that the adjustments are unreasonable;
8            or if the taxpayer and the Director agree in
9            writing to the application or use of an
10            alternative method of apportionment under Section
11            304(f);
12            For taxable years ending on or after December 31,

14                (i) any item of intangible expense or cost
15            paid, accrued, or incurred, directly or

10            writing to the application or use of an
11            alternative method of apportionment under Section
12            304(f).
13            Nothing in this subsection shall preclude the
14        Director from making any other adjustment otherwise
15        allowed under Section 404 of this Act for any tax year
16        beginning after the effective date of this amendment
17        provided such adjustment is made pursuant to
18        regulation adopted by the Department and such
19        regulations provide methods and standards by which the

2        business group but for the fact that the person is
3        prohibited under Section 1501(a)(27) from being
4        included in the unitary business group because he or
5        she is ordinarily required to apportion business
6        income under different subsections of Section 304. The
7        addition modification required by this subparagraph
8        shall be reduced to the extent that dividends were
9        included in base income of the unitary group for the
10        same taxable year and received by the taxpayer or by a

15        of the Internal Revenue Code) with respect to the
16        stock of the same person to whom the premiums and costs
17        were directly or indirectly paid, incurred, or
18        accrued. The preceding sentence does not apply to the
19        extent that the same dividends caused a reduction to
20        the addition modification required under Section
21        203(b)(2)(E-12) or Section 203(b)(2)(E-13) of this
22        Act;

1        subparagraph (E) shall be the sum of the amounts
2        computed independently under the preceding provisions
3        of this subparagraph (E) for each such taxable year;
4            (F) For taxable years ending on or after January
5        1, 1989, an amount equal to the tax deducted pursuant
6        to Section 164 of the Internal Revenue Code if the

10            (G) An amount equal to the amount of the capital
11        gain deduction allowable under the Internal Revenue
12        Code, to the extent deducted from gross income in the
13        computation of taxable income;
14            (G-5) For taxable years ending after December 31,
15        1997, an amount equal to any eligible remediation
16        costs that the trust or estate deducted in computing
17        adjusted gross income and for which the trust or
18        estate claims a credit under subsection (l) of Section
19        201;
20            (G-10) For taxable years 2001 through 2025, an
21        amount equal to the bonus depreciation deduction taken

23        taxable year under subsection (k) of Section 168 of
24        the Internal Revenue Code; for taxable years 2026 and
25        thereafter, an amount equal to the bonus depreciation
26        deduction taken on the taxpayer's federal income tax

 

 

HB4877- 68 -LRB104 18117 HLH 31556 b

1        return for the taxable year under subsection (k) or
2        (n) of Section 168 of the Internal Revenue Code; and
3            (G-11) If the taxpayer sells, transfers, abandons,
4        or otherwise disposes of property for which the
5        taxpayer was required in any taxable year to make an
6        addition modification under subparagraph (G-10), then
7        an amount equal to the aggregate amount of the
8        deductions taken in all taxable years under
9        subparagraph (R) with respect to that property.
10            If the taxpayer continues to own property through

12        subtraction is allowed with respect to that property

15        modification under subparagraph (R), then an amount
16        equal to that subtraction modification.
17            The taxpayer is required to make the addition
18        modification under this subparagraph only once with
19        respect to any one piece of property;
20            (G-12) An amount equal to the amount otherwise

23        indirectly, (i) for taxable years ending on or after
24        December 31, 2004, to a foreign person who would be a
25        member of the same unitary business group but for the
26        fact that the foreign person's business activity

 

 

HB4877- 69 -LRB104 18117 HLH 31556 b

1        outside the United States is 80% or more of the foreign
2        person's total business activity and (ii) for taxable
3        years ending on or after December 31, 2008, to a person
4        who would be a member of the same unitary business
5        group but for the fact that the person is prohibited
6        under Section 1501(a)(27) from being included in the
7        unitary business group because he or she is ordinarily
8        required to apportion business income under different
9        subsections of Section 304. The addition modification
10        required by this subparagraph shall be reduced to the
11        extent that dividends were included in base income of
12        the unitary group for the same taxable year and
13        received by the taxpayer or by a member of the
14        taxpayer's unitary business group (including amounts
15        included in gross income pursuant to Sections 951
16        through 964 of the Internal Revenue Code and amounts
17        included in gross income under Section 78 of the
18        Internal Revenue Code) with respect to the stock of
19        the same person to whom the interest was paid,
20        accrued, or incurred. For taxable years ending on and
21        after December 31, 2025, for purposes of applying this
22        paragraph in the case of a taxpayer to which Section
23        163(j) of the Internal Revenue Code applies for the
24        taxable year, the reduction in the amount of interest
25        for which a deduction is allowed by reason of Section
26        163(j) shall be treated as allocable first to persons

 

 

HB4877- 70 -LRB104 18117 HLH 31556 b

1        who are not foreign persons referred to in this
2        paragraph and then to such foreign persons.
3            For taxable years ending before December 31, 2025,
4        this paragraph shall not apply to the following:
5                (i) an item of interest paid, accrued, or
6            incurred, directly or indirectly, to a person who
7            is subject in a foreign country or state, other
8            than a state which requires mandatory unitary
9            reporting, to a tax on or measured by net income
10            with respect to such interest; or
11                (ii) an item of interest paid, accrued, or
12            incurred, directly or indirectly, to a person if
13            the taxpayer can establish, based on a
14            preponderance of the evidence, both of the
15            following:
16                    (a) the person, during the same taxable
17                year, paid, accrued, or incurred, the interest
18                to a person that is not a related member, and
19                    (b) the transaction giving rise to the
20                interest expense between the taxpayer and the
21                person did not have as a principal purpose the
22                avoidance of Illinois income tax, and is paid
23                pursuant to a contract or agreement that
24                reflects an arm's-length interest rate and
25                terms; or
26                (iii) the taxpayer can establish, based on

 

 

HB4877- 71 -LRB104 18117 HLH 31556 b

1            clear and convincing evidence, that the interest
2            paid, accrued, or incurred relates to a contract
3            or agreement entered into at arm's-length rates
4            and terms and the principal purpose for the
5            payment is not federal or Illinois tax avoidance;
6            or
7                (iv) an item of interest paid, accrued, or
8            incurred, directly or indirectly, to a person if
9            the taxpayer establishes by clear and convincing
10            evidence that the adjustments are unreasonable; or
11            if the taxpayer and the Director agree in writing
12            to the application or use of an alternative method
13            of apportionment under Section 304(f).
14            For taxable years ending on or after December 31,
15        2025, this paragraph shall not apply to the following:
16                (i) an item of interest paid, accrued, or
17            incurred, directly or indirectly, to a person if
18            the taxpayer can establish, based on a
19            preponderance of the evidence, both of the
20            following:
21                    (a) the person, during the same taxable
22                year, paid, accrued, or incurred, the interest
23                to a person that is not a related member, and
24                    (b) the transaction giving rise to the
25                interest expense between the taxpayer and the
26                person did not have as a principal purpose the

 

 

HB4877- 72 -LRB104 18117 HLH 31556 b

1                avoidance of Illinois income tax, and is paid
2                pursuant to a contract or agreement that
3                reflects an arm's-length interest rate and
4                terms; or
5                (ii) 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 otherwise
14        allowed under Section 404 of this Act for any tax year
15        beginning after the effective date of this amendment
16        provided such adjustment is made pursuant to
17        regulation adopted by the Department and such
18        regulations provide methods and standards by which the
19        Department will utilize its authority under Section
20        404 of this Act;
21            (G-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

 

 

HB4877- 73 -LRB104 18117 HLH 31556 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(c)(2)(G-12) of
26        this Act. As used in this subparagraph, the term

 

 

HB4877- 74 -LRB104 18117 HLH 31556 b

1        "intangible expenses and costs" includes: (1)
2        expenses, losses, and costs for or related to the
3        direct or indirect acquisition, use, maintenance or
4        management, ownership, sale, exchange, or any other
5        disposition of intangible property; (2) losses
6        incurred, directly or indirectly, from factoring
7        transactions or discounting transactions; (3) royalty,

12        trademarks, service marks, copyrights, mask works,
13        trade secrets, and similar types of intangible assets.
14            For taxable years ending before December 31, 2025,
15        this paragraph shall not apply to the following:
16                (i) any item of intangible expenses or costs
17            paid, accrued, or incurred, directly or
18            indirectly, from a transaction with a person who
19            is subject in a foreign country or state, other
20            than a state which requires mandatory unitary
21            reporting, to a tax on or measured by net income
22            with respect to such item; or
23                (ii) any item of intangible expense or cost
24            paid, accrued, or incurred, directly or
25            indirectly, if the taxpayer can establish, based
26            on a preponderance of the evidence, both of the

 

 

HB4877- 75 -LRB104 18117 HLH 31556 b

1            following:
2                    (a) the person during the same taxable
3                year paid, accrued, or incurred, the
4                intangible expense or cost to a person that is
5                not a related member, and
6                    (b) the transaction giving rise to the
7                intangible expense or cost between the
8                taxpayer and the person did not have as a
9                principal purpose the avoidance of Illinois
10                income tax, and is paid pursuant to a contract
11                or agreement that reflects arm's-length terms;
12                or
13                (iii) any item of intangible expense or cost
14            paid, accrued, or incurred, directly or
15            indirectly, from a transaction with a person if
16            the taxpayer establishes by clear and convincing
17            evidence, that the adjustments are unreasonable;
18            or if the taxpayer and the Director agree in
19            writing to the application or use of an
20            alternative method of apportionment under Section
21            304(f);
22            For taxable years ending on or after December 31,
23        2025, this paragraph shall not apply to the following:
24                (i) any item of intangible expense or cost
25            paid, accrued, or incurred, directly or
26            indirectly, if the taxpayer can establish, based

 

 

HB4877- 76 -LRB104 18117 HLH 31556 b

1            on a preponderance of the evidence, both of the
2            following:
3                    (a) the person during the same taxable
4                year paid, accrued, or incurred, the
5                intangible expense or cost to a person that is
6                not a related member, and
7                    (b) the transaction giving rise to the
8                intangible expense or cost between the
9                taxpayer and the person did not have as a
10                principal purpose the avoidance of Illinois
11                income tax, and is paid pursuant to a contract
12                or agreement that reflects arm's-length terms;
13                or
14                (ii) any item of intangible expense or cost
15            paid, accrued, or incurred, directly or
16            indirectly, from a transaction with a person if
17            the taxpayer establishes by clear and convincing
18            evidence, that the adjustments are unreasonable;
19            or if the taxpayer and the Director agree in
20            writing to the application or use of an
21            alternative method of apportionment under Section
22            304(f).
23            Nothing in this subsection shall preclude the
24        Director from making any other adjustment otherwise
25        allowed under Section 404 of this Act for any tax year
26        beginning after the effective date of this amendment

 

 

HB4877- 77 -LRB104 18117 HLH 31556 b

1        provided such adjustment is made pursuant to
2        regulation adopted by the Department and such
3        regulations provide methods and standards by which the
4        Department will utilize its authority under Section
5        404 of this Act;
6            (G-14) For taxable years ending on or after
7        December 31, 2008, an amount equal to the amount of
8        insurance premium expenses and costs otherwise allowed
9        as a deduction in computing base income, and that were
10        paid, accrued, or incurred, directly or indirectly, to
11        a person who would be a member of the same unitary
12        business group but for the fact that the person is
13        prohibited under Section 1501(a)(27) from being
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
20        same taxable year and received by the taxpayer or by a
21        member of the taxpayer's unitary business group
22        (including amounts included in gross income under
23        Sections 951 through 964 of the Internal Revenue Code
24        and amounts included in gross income under Section 78
25        of the Internal Revenue Code) with respect to the
26        stock of the same person to whom the premiums and costs

 

 

HB4877- 78 -LRB104 18117 HLH 31556 b

1        were directly or indirectly paid, incurred, or
2        accrued. The preceding sentence does not apply to the
3        extent that the same dividends caused a reduction to
4        the addition modification required under Section
5        203(c)(2)(G-12) or Section 203(c)(2)(G-13) of this
6        Act;
7            (G-15) An amount equal to the credit allowable to
8        the taxpayer under Section 218(a) of this Act,
9        determined without regard to Section 218(c) of this
10        Act;
11            (G-16) For taxable years ending on or after
12        December 31, 2017, an amount equal to the deduction
13        allowed under Section 199 of the Internal Revenue Code
14        for the taxable year;

16        deduction when computing the taxpayer's federal
17        taxable income for the taxable year and that is
18        attributable to an endowment gift for which the
19        taxpayer receives a credit under the Illinois Gives
20        Tax Credit Act;
21    and by deducting from the total so obtained the sum of the

12            (K) An amount equal to all amounts included in
13        taxable income as modified by subparagraphs (A), (B),

21        the amount exempted shall be the interest net of bond
22        premium amortization;
23            (L) With the exception of any amounts subtracted
24        under subparagraph (K), an amount equal to the sum of

19        paragraph in the case of a taxpayer to which Section

21        taxable year, the reduction in the amount of interest
22        for which a deduction is allowed by reason of Section

24        who are not foreign persons referred to in this
25        paragraph and then to such foreign persons.

4            is subject in a foreign country or state, other
5            than a state which requires mandatory unitary
6            reporting, to a tax on or measured by net income
7            with respect to such interest; or
8                (ii) an item of interest paid, accrued, or
9            incurred, directly or indirectly, to a person if
10            the taxpayer can establish, based on a

13                    (a) the person, during the same taxable
14                year, paid, accrued, or incurred, the interest
15                to a person that is not a related member, and
16                    (b) the transaction giving rise to the
17                interest expense between the taxpayer and the
18                person did not have as a principal purpose the
19                avoidance of Illinois income tax, and is paid
20                pursuant to a contract or agreement that
21                reflects an arm's-length interest rate and
22                terms; or
23                (iii) the taxpayer can establish, based on
24            clear and convincing evidence, that the interest
25            paid, accrued, or incurred relates to a contract
26            or agreement entered into at arm's-length rates

 

 

HB4877- 94 -LRB104 18117 HLH 31556 b

1            and terms and the principal purpose for the
2            payment is not federal or Illinois tax avoidance;
3            or
4                (iv) an item of interest paid, accrued, or
5            incurred, directly or indirectly, to a person if
6            the taxpayer establishes by clear and convincing
7            evidence that the adjustments are unreasonable; or
8            if the taxpayer and the Director agree in writing
9            to the application or use of an alternative method
10            of apportionment under Section 304(f).
11            For taxable years ending on or after December 31,
12        2025, this paragraph shall not apply to the following:
13                (i) 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

1                terms; or
2                (ii) an item of interest paid, accrued, or
3            incurred, directly or indirectly, to a person if
4            the taxpayer establishes by clear and convincing
5            evidence that the adjustments are unreasonable; or
6            if the taxpayer and the Director agree in writing
7            to the application or use of an alternative method
8            of apportionment under Section 304(f).
9            Nothing in this subsection shall preclude the
10        Director from making any other adjustment otherwise
11        allowed under Section 404 of this Act for any tax year
12        beginning after the effective date of this amendment
13        provided such adjustment is made pursuant to
14        regulation adopted by the Department and such
15        regulations provide methods and standards by which the
16        Department will utilize its authority under Section
17        404 of this Act; and
18            (D-8) An amount equal to the amount of intangible
19        expenses and costs otherwise allowed as a deduction in
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

 

 

HB4877- 96 -LRB104 18117 HLH 31556 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
13        business group (including amounts included in gross
14        income pursuant to Sections 951 through 964 of the
15        Internal Revenue Code and amounts included in gross
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,

26        indirect acquisition, use, maintenance or management,

3        indirectly, from factoring transactions or discounting
4        transactions; (3) royalty, patent, technical, and

9        marks, copyrights, mask works, trade secrets, and
10        similar types of intangible assets;
11            For taxable years ending on or after December 31,
12        2025, this paragraph shall not apply to the following:
13                (i) any item of intangible expenses or costs
14            paid, accrued, or incurred, directly or
15            indirectly, from a transaction with a person who
16            is subject in a foreign country or state, other
17            than a state which requires mandatory unitary
18            reporting, to a tax on or measured by net income
19            with respect to such item; or
20                (ii) any item of intangible expense or cost
21            paid, accrued, or incurred, directly or
22            indirectly, if the taxpayer can establish, based
23            on a preponderance of the evidence, both of the
24            following:
25                    (a) the person during the same taxable
26                year paid, accrued, or incurred, the

1                intangible expense or cost to a person that is
2                not a related member, and
3                    (b) the transaction giving rise to the
4                intangible expense or cost between the
5                taxpayer and the person did not have as a
6                principal purpose the avoidance of Illinois
7                income tax, and is paid pursuant to a contract
8                or agreement that reflects arm's-length terms;
9                or
10                (iii) any item of intangible expense or cost
11            paid, accrued, or incurred, directly or
12            indirectly, from a transaction with a person if
13            the taxpayer establishes by clear and convincing
14            evidence, that the adjustments are unreasonable;
15            or if the taxpayer and the Director agree in
16            writing to the application or use of an
17            alternative method of apportionment under Section
18            304(f);
19            For taxable years ending on or after December 31,
20        2025, this paragraph shall not apply to the following:
21                (i) any item of intangible expense or cost
22            paid, accrued, or incurred, directly or
23            indirectly, if the taxpayer can establish, based
24            on a preponderance of the evidence, both of the

26                    (a) the person during the same taxable

 

 

HB4877- 99 -LRB104 18117 HLH 31556 b

1                year paid, accrued, or incurred, the

10                or
11                (ii) any item of intangible expense or cost
12            paid, accrued, or incurred, directly or

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

25        corporation had filed a separate return for federal
26        income tax purposes for the taxable year and each

 

 

HB4877- 113 -LRB104 18117 HLH 31556 b

1        preceding taxable year for which it was a member of an
2        affiliated group. For purposes of this subparagraph,
3        the taxpayer's separate taxable income shall be
4        determined as if the election provided by Section
5        243(b)(2) of the Internal Revenue Code had been in

12        prohibition against offsetting losses from patronage
13        activities against income from nonpatronage
14        activities; except that a cooperative corporation or
15        association may make an election to follow its federal
16        income tax treatment of patronage losses and
17        nonpatronage losses. In the event such election is
18        made, such losses shall be computed and carried over
19        in a manner consistent with subsection (a) of Section
20        207 of this Act and apportioned by the apportionment
21        factor reported by the cooperative on its Illinois
22        income tax return filed for the taxable year in which
23        the losses are incurred. The election shall be
24        effective for all taxable years with original returns
25        due on or after the date of the election. In addition,
26        the cooperative may file an amended return or returns,

 

 

HB4877- 114 -LRB104 18117 HLH 31556 b

1        as allowed under this Act, to provide that the
2        election shall be effective for losses incurred or
3        carried forward for taxable years occurring prior to
4        the date of the election. Once made, the election may
5        only be revoked upon approval of the Director. The
6        Department shall adopt rules setting forth
7        requirements for documenting the elections and any
8        resulting Illinois net loss and the standards to be
9        used by the Director in evaluating requests to revoke
10        elections. Public Act 96-932 is declaratory of
11        existing law;
12            (G) Subchapter S corporations. In the case of: (i)
13        a Subchapter S corporation for which there is in
14        effect an election for the taxable year under Section
15        1362 of the Internal Revenue Code, the taxable income
16        of such corporation determined in accordance with
17        Section 1363(b) of the Internal Revenue Code, except
18        that taxable income shall take into account those
19        items which are required by Section 1363(b)(1) of the
20        Internal Revenue Code to be separately stated; and
21        (ii) a Subchapter S corporation for which there is in
22        effect a federal election to opt out of the provisions
23        of the Subchapter S Revision Act of 1982 and have
24        applied instead the prior federal Subchapter S rules
25        as in effect on July 1, 1982, the taxable income of
26        such corporation determined in accordance with the

 

 

HB4877- 115 -LRB104 18117 HLH 31556 b

1        federal Subchapter S rules as in effect on July 1,
2        1982; and
3            (H) Partnerships. In the case of a partnership,
4        taxable income determined in accordance with Section
5        703 of the Internal Revenue Code, except that taxable
6        income shall take into account those items which are
7        required by Section 703(a)(1) to be separately stated
8        but which would be taken into account by an individual
9        in calculating his taxable income.
10        (3) Recapture of business expenses on disposition of
11    asset or business. Notwithstanding any other law to the
12    contrary, if in prior years income from an asset or
13    business has been classified as business income and in a
14    later year is demonstrated to be non-business income, then
15    all expenses, without limitation, deducted in such later
16    year and in the 2 immediately preceding taxable years
17    related to that asset or business that generated the
18    non-business income shall be added back and recaptured as
19    business income in the year of the disposition of the
20    asset or business. Such amount shall be apportioned to
21    Illinois using the greater of the apportionment fraction
