in interstate commerce to | 12 | | destinations outside the State of Illinois: Provided
that the | 13 | | property purchased is deemed to be purchased for the purpose of

ingredient of an intentionally produced product or | 16 | | by-product of manufacturing.

be purchased for the purpose of resale, despite first being | 8 | | used, to the
extent to which it is resold as an ingredient of | 9 | | an intentionally produced

| 12 | | an intentionally produced by-product of manufacturing. "Sale | 13 | | at retail"
includes any such transfer made for resale unless | 14 | | made in compliance with
Section 2c of the Retailers' Occupation | 15 | | Tax Act, as incorporated by

| 7 | | "Retailer" means and includes every person engaged in the | 8 | | business of
making sales at retail as defined in this Section.
| 9 | | A person who holds himself or herself out as being engaged | 10 | | (or who habitually
engages) in selling tangible personal | 11 | | property at retail is a retailer
hereunder with respect to such | 12 | | sales (and not primarily in a service
occupation) | 13 | | notwithstanding the fact that such person designs and produces
| 14 | | such tangible personal property on special order for the | 15 | | purchaser and in
such a way as to render the property of value | 16 | | only to such purchaser, if
such tangible personal property so | 17 | | produced on special order serves
substantially the same | 18 | | function as stock or standard items of tangible
personal | 19 | | property that are sold at retail.
| 20 | | A person whose activities are organized and conducted | 21 | | primarily as a
not-for-profit service enterprise, and who | 22 | | engages in selling tangible
personal property at retail | 23 | | (whether to the public or merely to members and
their guests) | 24 | | is a retailer with respect to such transactions, excepting
only | 25 | | a person organized and operated exclusively for charitable, | 26 | | religious

|
| 1 | | sales by such person

to be used primarily for | 3 | | the purposes of such person, or (2), to the extent
of sales by | 4 | | such person of tangible personal property which is not sold or
| 5 | | offered for sale by persons organized for profit. The selling | 6 | | of school
books and school supplies by schools at retail to | 7 | | students is not

paragraph does not apply to nor | 9 | | subject to taxation occasional dinners,
social or similar | 10 | | activities of a person organized and operated exclusively
for | 11 | | charitable, religious or educational purposes, whether or not | 12 | | such
activities are open to the public.
| 13 | | A person who is the recipient of a grant or contract under | 14 | | Title VII of
the Older Americans Act of 1965 (P.L. 92-258) and | 15 | | serves meals to

habitually engage) in selling | 26 | | such tangible personal property at retail or
a sale through a |
| | | SB0352 Enrolled | - 8 - | LRB098 04568 HLH 34596 b |
|
| 1 | | bulk vending machine does not make such person a retailer
| 2 | | hereunder. However, any person who is engaged in a business | 3 | | which is not
subject to the tax imposed by the "Retailers' | 4 | | Occupation Tax Act" because
of involving the sale of or a | 5 | | contract to sell real estate or a
construction contract to | 6 | | improve real estate, but who, in the course of
conducting such | 7 | | business, transfers tangible personal property to users or
| 8 | | consumers in the finished form in which it was purchased, and | 9 | | which does
not become real estate, under any provision of a | 10 | | construction contract or
real estate sale or real estate sales | 11 | | agreement entered into with some
other person arising out of or | 12 | | because of such nontaxable business, is a
retailer to the | 13 | | extent of the value of the tangible personal property so
| 14 | | transferred. If, in such transaction, a separate charge is made | 15 | | for the
tangible personal property so transferred, the value of | 16 | | such property, for
the purposes of this Act, is the amount so | 17 | | separately charged, but not less
than the cost of such property | 18 | | to the transferor; if no separate charge is
made, the value of | 19 | | such property, for the purposes of this Act, is the cost
to the | 20 | | transferor of such tangible personal property.

| 8 | | Notwithstanding any law to the contrary, for any motor | 9 | | vehicle, as defined in Section 1-146 of the Vehicle Code, that | 10 | | is sold on or after July 1, 2014 for the purpose of leasing the | 11 | | vehicle for a defined period that is longer than one year and | 12 | | (1) is a motor vehicle of the second division that: (A) is a | 13 | | self-contained motor vehicle designed or permanently converted | 14 | | to provide living quarters for recreational, camping, or travel | 15 | | use, with direct walk through access to the living quarters | 16 | | from the driver's seat; (B) is of the van configuration | 17 | | designed for the transportation of not less than 7 nor more | 18 | | than 16 passengers; or (C) has a gross vehicle weight rating of | 19 | | 8,000 pounds or less or (2) is a motor vehicle of the first | 20 | | division, "selling price" or "amount of sale" means the | 21 | | consideration received by the lessor pursuant to the lease | 22 | | contract, including amounts due at lease signing and all | 23 | | monthly or other regular payments charged over the term of the | 24 | | lease. Also included in the selling price is any amount | 25 | | received by the lessor from the lessee for the leased vehicle | 26 | | that is not calculated at the time the lease is executed, |

|
| 1 | | including, but not limited to, excess mileage charges and | 2 | | charges for excess wear and tear. For sales that occur in | 3 | | Illinois, with respect to any amount received by the lessor | 4 | | from the lessee for the leased vehicle that is not calculated | 5 | | at the time the lease is executed, the lessor who purchased the | 6 | | motor vehicle does not incur the tax imposed by the Use Tax Act | 7 | | on those amounts, and the retailer who makes the retail sale of | 8 | | the motor vehicle to the lessor is not required to collect the | 9 | | tax imposed by this Act or to pay the tax imposed by the | 10 | | Retailers' Occupation Tax Act on those amounts. However, the | 11 | | lessor who purchased the motor vehicle assumes the liability | 12 | | for reporting and paying the tax on those amounts directly to | 13 | | the Department in the same form (Illinois Retailers' Occupation | 14 | | Tax, and local retailers' occupation taxes, if applicable) in | 15 | | which the retailer would have reported and paid such tax if the | 16 | | retailer had accounted for the tax to the Department. For | 17 | | amounts received by the lessor from the lessee that are not | 18 | | calculated at the time the lease is executed, the lessor must | 19 | | file the return and pay the tax to the Department by the due | 20 | | date otherwise required by this Act for returns other than | 21 | | transaction returns. If the retailer is entitled under this Act | 22 | | to a discount for collecting and remitting the tax imposed | 23 | | under this Act to the Department with respect to the sale of | 24 | | the motor vehicle to the lessor, then the right to the discount | 25 | | provided in this Act shall be transferred to the lessor with | 26 | | respect to the tax paid by the lessor for any amount received |

|
| 1 | | by the lessor from the lessee for the leased vehicle that is | 2 | | not calculated at the time the lease is executed; provided that | 3 | | the discount is only allowed if the return is timely filed and | 4 | | for amounts timely paid. The "selling price" of a motor vehicle | 5 | | that is sold on or after July 1, 2014 for the purpose of | 6 | | leasing for a defined period of longer than one year shall not | 7 | | be reduced by the value of or credit given for traded-in | 8 | | tangible personal property owned by the lessor, nor shall it be | 9 | | reduced by the value of or credit given for traded-in tangible | 10 | | personal property owned by the lessee, regardless of whether | 11 | | the trade-in value thereof is assigned by the lessee to the | 12 | | lessor. In the case of a motor vehicle that is sold for the | 13 | | purpose of leasing for a defined period of longer than one | 14 | | year, the sale occurs at the time of the delivery of the | 15 | | vehicle, regardless of the due date of any lease payments. A | 16 | | lessor who incurs a Retailers' Occupation Tax liability on the | 17 | | sale of a motor vehicle coming off lease may not take a credit | 18 | | against that liability for the Use Tax the lessor paid upon the | 19 | | purchase of the motor vehicle (or for any tax the lessor paid | 20 | | with respect to any amount received by the lessor from the | 21 | | lessee for the leased vehicle that was not calculated at the | 22 | | time the lease was executed) if the selling price of the motor | 23 | | vehicle at the time of purchase was calculated using the | 24 | | definition of "selling price" as defined in this paragraph. | 25 | | Notwithstanding any other provision of this Act to the | 26 | | contrary, lessors shall file all returns and make all payments |

(including but not limited to any form of motor | 11 | | vehicle for any form of
motor vehicle, or any kind of farm or | 12 | | agricultural implement for any other
kind of farm or | 13 | | agricultural implement), while not including a kind of item

hereunder with respect to such | 2 | | sales (and not primarily in a service
occupation) | 3 | | notwithstanding the fact that such person designs and produces
| 4 | | such tangible personal property on special order for the | 5 | | purchaser and in
such a way as to render the property of value | 6 | | only to such purchaser, if
such tangible personal property so | 7 | | produced on special order serves
substantially the same | 8 | | function as stock or standard items of tangible
personal | 9 | | property that are sold at retail.
| 10 | | A person whose activities are organized and conducted | 11 | | primarily as a
not-for-profit service enterprise, and who | 12 | | engages in selling tangible
personal property at retail | 13 | | (whether to the public or merely to members and
their guests) | 14 | | is a retailer with respect to such transactions, excepting
only | 15 | | a person organized and operated exclusively for charitable, | 16 | | religious
or educational purposes either (1), to the extent of | 17 | | sales by such person
to its members, students, patients or | 18 | | inmates of tangible personal property
to be used primarily for | 19 | | the purposes of such person, or (2), to the extent
of sales by | 20 | | such person of tangible personal property which is not sold or
| 21 | | offered for sale by persons organized for profit. The selling | 22 | | of school
books and school supplies by schools at retail to | 23 | | students is not
"primarily for the purposes of" the school | 24 | | which does such selling. This
paragraph does not apply to nor | 25 | | subject to taxation occasional dinners,

| 10 | | Persons who engage in the business of transferring tangible | 11 | | personal
property upon the redemption of trading stamps are | 12 | | retailers hereunder when
engaged in such business.

by a person who does not hold himself out as | 15 | | being engaged (or who does not
habitually engage) in selling | 16 | | such tangible personal property at retail or
a sale through a | 17 | | bulk vending machine does not make such person a retailer
| 18 | | hereunder. However, any person who is engaged in a business | 19 | | which is not
subject to the tax imposed by the "Retailers' | 20 | | Occupation Tax Act" because
of involving the sale of or a | 21 | | contract to sell real estate or a
construction contract to | 22 | | improve real estate, but who, in the course of
conducting such | 23 | | business, transfers tangible personal property to users or

other person arising out of or | 2 | | because of such nontaxable business, is a
retailer to the | 3 | | extent of the value of the tangible personal property so
| 4 | | transferred. If, in such transaction, a separate charge is made | 5 | | for the
tangible personal property so transferred, the value of | 6 | | such property, for
the purposes of this Act, is the amount so | 7 | | separately charged, but not less
than the cost of such property | 8 | | to the transferor; if no separate charge is
made, the value of | 9 | | such property, for the purposes of this Act, is the cost
to the | 10 | | transferor of such tangible personal property.
