          Creates the Automobile Leasing Occupation and Use Tax Act
      to impose a tax at the  rate  of  6.25%  on  the  leasing  of
      automobiles for a period of more than one year. Provides that
      tax proceeds shall be deposited into the Local Government Tax
      Fund  and  the  County and Mass Transit District Fund. Amends
      the Use Tax Act and the  Retailers'  Occupation  Tax  Act  to
      exempt  the  leasing  of  automobiles  and  the use of leased
      automobiles from taxation under  those  Acts.  Provides  that
      lessors  who  claim  not  to  be  engaged in the auto leasing
      business for purposes of collecting  the  Automobile  Leasing
      Occupation  and  Use Tax may not claim an exemption under the
      Retailers' Occupation Tax Act unless they register  with  the
      Department   and   pay   tax  under  the  Automobile  Leasing
      Occupation and Use Tax.  Amends  the  State  Finance  Act  to
      provide for distribution of money in the Local Government Tax
      Fund  and  the County and Mass Transit District Fund from the
      Automobile  Leasing  Occupation  and   Use   Tax   to   local
      governments where the lease transactions occurred.

 1        AN ACT in relation to taxation of auto leases.
 2        Be  it  enacted  by  the People of the State of Illinois,
 3    represented in the General Assembly:
 4        Section 1. Short title. This Act  may  be  cited  as  the
 5    Automobile Leasing Occupation and Use Tax Act.
 6        Section  5.  Definitions. "Leasing" means any transfer of
 7    the possession or right to possession of an automobile  to  a
 8    user for a valuable consideration for a period of more than 1
 9    year.
10        "Automobile"   means  any  motor  vehicle  of  the  first
11    division, a motor vehicle of the second division  that  is  a
12    self-contained   motor   vehicle   designed   or  permanently
13    converted  to  provide  living  quarters  for   recreational,
14    camping or travel use, with direct walk through access to the
15    living quarters from the driver's seat, or a motor vehicle of
16    the second division that is of the van configuration designed
17    for  the  transportation  of not less than 7 nor more than 16
18    passengers, as defined  in  Section  1-146  of  the  Illinois
19    Vehicle Code.
20        "Capitalized  cost"  means the amount which, when reduced
21    by the amount of the capitalized cost reduction,  equals  the
22    adjusted  capitalized cost. The capitalized cost includes all
23    items which are  capitalized  in  the  lease  and  after  the
24    application  of  the capitalized cost reduction, amortizes to
25    the  residual  value  by  the  depreciation  portion  of  the
26    periodic lease payments over the term of the  lease.   For  a
27    single  payment  lease, the capitalized cost amortizes to the
28    residual value by the  depreciation  portion  of  the  single
29    lease  payment.   The  capitalized  cost may include, without
30    limitation,  taxes,   registration,   license,   acquisition,
31    administration,  assignment  and  other fees, and charges for
HB0601 Engrossed            -2-                LRB9000420KRkb
 1    insurance, for a waiver of the contractual obligation to  pay
 2    the  gap  amount, for accessories and their installation, for
 3    delivering, servicing, repairing, or improving  the  vehicle,
 4    and  for  other  services  and  benefits  incidental  to  the
 5    consumer  lease.   It  also  may  include,  with respect to a
 6    vehicle or other property traded in connection with a  lease,
 7    the   unpaid   balance   of  any  amount  financed  under  an
 8    outstanding  vehicle  loan  agreement   or   vehicle   retail
 9    installment  contract  or  the  unpaid  portion  of the early
10    termination obligation under a lease or other  obligation  of
11    the  lessee.   The term capitalized cost does not include any
12    lease charge.
13        "Capitalized cost reduction" means payments made by cash,
14    check, rebates, or similar means that are in  the  nature  of
15    down  payments  made  by  the  lessee  and  any  net trade-in
16    allowance granted by the  lessor  at  the  inception  of  the
17    consumer  lease  for  the purpose of reducing the capitalized
18    cost.  The term capitalized cost reduction does  not  include
19    any base lease payments due at the inception of the lease.
20        "Department" means the Department of Revenue.
21        "Person" means any natural individual, firm, partnership,
22    association,  joint  stock  company, joint venture, public or
23    private  corporation,  limited  liability   company,   or   a
24    receiver,    executor,   trustee,   conservator,   or   other
25    representatives appointed by order of any court.
26        "Lessor"  means  any  person,   firm,   corporation,   or
27    association  engaged in this State in the business of leasing
28    automobiles for a period of more than one year to users.  For
29    this  purpose,  the  objective  of  making  a  profit  is not
30    necessary to make the leasing activity a business.
31        "Lessee" means any user to whom the  possession,  or  the
32    right  to  possession,  of an automobile is transferred for a
33    period of more than one year  for  a  valuable  consideration
34    that is paid by the lessee or by someone else.
HB0601 Engrossed            -3-                LRB9000420KRkb
 1        "Gross  receipts"  from  the leasing of tangible personal
 2    property or "lease payments" means the  total  leasing  price
 3    less  the  residual  value  of the automobile. In the case of
 4    leasing transactions in which the consideration  is  paid  to
 5    the  lessor  on  an  installment  basis,  the  amounts of the
 6    payments shall be included by the lessor in gross receipts or
 7    lease payments only as and when payments are received by  the
 8    lessor.
 9        "Leasing  price" or "lease price" means the consideration
10    paid monthly for  leasing  an  automobile  valued  in  money,
11    whether  received  in  money  or  otherwise  (including cash,
12    credits, property, and  services)  and  shall  be  determined
13    without  any deduction on account of the cost of the property
14    leased, the cost of materials used, labor or service cost, or
15    any other expense whatsoever, and includes charges added  for
16    capital  contributions  and  up  front payments, but does not
17    include charges that are added by lessors on account  of  the
18    lessor's  tax  liability under this Act or any other State or
19    federal law or on account of the lessor's  duty  to  collect,
20    from  the  lessee,  the  tax that is imposed by Section 15 of
21    this Act. The phrase "leasing price" or  "lease  price"  does
22    not  include  charges  added  on  account of the lessor's tax
23    liability under the Chicago Transaction Tax or any other home
24    rule leasing tax on automobiles.
25        "Residual value" means the estimated value of the vehicle
26    at the end of the scheduled lease term, used by the lessor in
27    determining the base lease payment,  as  established  by  the
28    lessor  at  the  time  the  lessor  and lessee enter into the
29    lease.
30        Section 10. Occupation  tax  imposed;  rate.   A  tax  is
31    imposed upon persons engaged in this State in the business of
32    leasing automobiles in Illinois.  The tax shall be imposed as
33    follows:
HB0601 Engrossed            -4-                LRB9000420KRkb
 1             (1)  A  tax is imposed at a rate equal to the sum of
 2        1.25%, plus a rate equal to the rate  of  any  additional
 3        occupation tax imposed by a unit of local government that
 4        is  authorized  to  impose  and does impose an additional
 5        occupation tax, of the capitalized cost, to be paid in  a
 6        lump sum payment at the start of the lease term;
 7             (2)  A  tax  is  imposed  at  the  rate of 5% of the
 8        monthly gross receipts received from the business; and
 9             (3)  A tax is imposed at the rate of 5% of the value
10        of the automobile at  the  time  a  lessee  exercises  an
11        option to purchase a leased vehicle.
12        No  tax  shall be imposed under this Section, however, if
13    the lessor is prohibited by federal law from charging tax  to
14    the  lessee.  Every  person  engaged  in  this  State  in the
15    business of leasing automobiles shall apply to the Department
16    (upon a form prescribed and furnished by the Department)  for
17    a certificate of registration under this Act. The certificate
18    of  registration  that  is  issued  by  the  Department  to a
19    retailer under the Retailers' Occupation Tax Act shall permit
20    the lessor to engage in a business that is taxable under this
21    Section without registering separately with the Department.
22        The tax imposed by this Section shall, when collected, be
23    stated as a distinct item separate and apart from  the  lease
24    price of the automobile.
25        The  Department  has power to administer and enforce this
26    Section, to collect all taxes and penalties  due  under  this
27    Section,  to  dispose  of taxes and penalties so collected in
28    the manner provided in this Act, and to determine all  rights
29    to  credit  memoranda  arising  on  account  of the erroneous
30    payment  of  tax  or  penalty  under   this   Act.   In   the
31    administration  of,  and  compliance  with, this Section, the
32    Department and persons who are subject to this Section  shall
33    have  the  same  rights,  remedies,  privileges,  immunities,
34    powers  and  duties, shall be subject to the same conditions,

 8    Occupation Tax Act and Section 3-7 of the Uniform Penalty and
 9    Interest Act as fully as if those provisions were  set  forth
10    in  this Section. Of the moneys collected under this Section,
11    the amounts collected from the 1.25% tax and  any  additional
12    occupation  tax imposed by a unit of local government that is
13    authorized to impose and does impose an additional occupation
14    tax at the start of the lease term shall  be  deposited  into
15    the   Automobile   Leasing   and   Occupation   and  Use  Tax
16    Distribution Fund and all other moneys shall  be  distributed
17    as  provided  in  Section  3 of the Retailers' Occupation Tax
18    Act, except that  for  purposes  of  this  distribution,  the
19    required  distributions  into  the  County  and  Mass Transit
20    District Fund and the Local Government  Tax  Fund  shall  not
21    apply.
22        Allocation  of  Automobile Leasing Occupation and Use Tax
23    attributable to units of local government shall be determined
24    by the location in this State from  which  an  automobile  is
25    removed  from  a  retailer's  inventory  for subsequent lease
26    under this Act. Lessors required to file returns  under  this
27    Act   must   specifically   identify   receipts   from  lease
28    transactions that are attributable  to  each  unit  of  local
29    government as determined in this Section.

31    in the incorporated Sections of the Retailers' Occupation Tax
32    Act to retailers, to sellers, or to persons  engaged  in  the

11        1.25%,  plus  a  rate equal to the rate of any additional
12        use tax imposed by a unit of  local  government  that  is
13        authorized  to  impose  and does impose an additional use
14        tax, of the capitalized cost, to be paid in  a  lump  sum
15        payment at the start of the lease term; and
16             (2)  A  tax  is  imposed  at  the  rate of 5% of the

23    the lessee by a lessor maintaining a  place  of  business  in

26    pursuant to the preceding paragraph of this Section shall  be
27    paid  to  the  Department  directly  by  any person using the
28    automobile within this State.
29        The tax imposed by this Section shall, when collected, be
30    stated as a distinct item separate and apart from  the  lease
31    price of the automobile.
32        The  Department  has full power to administer and enforce
33    this Section; to collect all taxes, penalties,  and  interest

 3    to determine  all  rights  to  credit  memoranda  or  refunds
 4    arising  on account of the erroneous payment of tax, penalty,

14    Department imposed any tax at a rate equal to any  additional
15    occupation  or  use  tax  under Sections 10 and 15 during the
16    second preceding calendar month.  The amount to  be  paid  to
17    each  unit  of  local  government  shall  be  the amount (not

15    lessor.  If a lessor improperly collects any such amount from
16    the lessee, the lessee shall have a legal right  to  claim  a
17    refund  of  that  amount  from the lessor.  If, however, that

24    body that has been  issued  an  active  sales  tax  exemption
25    identification  number  by the Department under Section 1g of
26    the Retailers' Occupation Tax Act. If the property is  leased
27    in  a manner that does not qualify for this exemption or used
28    in any other non-exempt manner, the lessor  shall  be  liable
29    for  the  tax  imposed  under this Act or the Service Use Tax
30    Act, as the case may be, based on the fair  market  value  of
31    the  property  at the time the non-qualifying use occurs.  No
32    lessor shall collect or attempt to collect an amount (however
33    designated) that purports to reimburse that  lessor  for  the
34    tax  imposed  by  this Act or the Service Use Tax Act, as the

 1    case may be, if the tax has not been paid by the lessor.   If
 2    a lessor improperly collects any such amount from the lessee,
 3    the lessee shall have a legal right to claim a refund of that
 4    amount  from  the  lessor.   If,  however, that amount is not
 5    refunded to the lessee for any reason, the lessor  is  liable
 6    to pay that amount to the Department.
