| 13 | | (b) There is imposed on electric cooperatives that
are | 14 | | required to file reports with the Rural Utilities Service
a tax | 15 | | equal to 0.8% of such cooperative's invested capital for the | 16 | | taxable
period.
The invested capital tax imposed by this | 17 | | subsection shall not be imposed on
electric cooperatives not | 18 | | required to file reports with the Rural Utilities
Service.
| 19 | | (c) If, for any taxable period ending on or before December | 20 | | 31, 2012 , the total amount received by
the Department from the | 21 | | tax imposed by subsection (a)
exceeds
$145,279,553 plus, for | 22 | | taxable periods subsequent to 1998, an amount
equal to the | 23 | | lesser of (i) 5%
or (ii) the percentage increase in the | 24 | | Consumer Price Index during the
immediately preceding taxable | 25 | | period,
of the total amount received by the Department
from the | 26 | | tax imposed by subsection (a) for the immediately preceding |
| | | HB2558 | - 3 - | LRB098 10529 HLH 40767 b |
|
| 1 | | taxable
period, determined after allowance of the credit | 2 | | provided for in this
subsection,
the Department shall issue | 3 | | credit
memoranda in the aggregate amount of the excess to each | 4 | | of the
taxpayers who paid any amount of tax under subsection | 5 | | (a) for
that taxable period in the proportion which the amount | 6 | | paid by
the taxpayer bears to the total amount paid by all such | 7 | | taxpayers.
This calculation shall be made as of December 1 of | 8 | | the year following the
immediately
preceding taxable period and | 9 | | shall consist of only those returns with payment
then
on file | 10 | | with the Department. All future amendments to returns and | 11 | | monies
covering
this period received after December 1 of the | 12 | | year following the taxable period
will not be
included in the | 13 | | calculation of the affected taxable period or any other taxable
| 14 | | period.
The provisions of this subsection are not subject to | 15 | | the Uniform Penalty and
Interest
Act.
Any credit memorandum | 16 | | issued to a taxpayer under this
subsection may be used as a | 17 | | credit by the taxpayer against its
liability in future taxable | 18 | | periods for tax under
subsection (a). Any amount credited to a | 19 | | taxpayer shall not be
refunded to the taxpayer unless the | 20 | | taxpayer demonstrates to
the reasonable satisfaction of the | 21 | | Department that it will not
incur future liability for tax | 22 | | under subsection (a). The
Department shall adopt reasonable | 23 | | regulations for the
implementation of the provisions of this | 24 | | subsection.
