  1  3                             AN ACT
  1  4 RELATING TO TAX CREDITS UNDER THE NEW JOBS AND INCOME
  1  5    PROGRAM AND THE ENTERPRISE ZONE PROGRAM FOR FARMERS'
  1  6    COOPERATIVES AND INCLUDING A RETROACTIVE APPLICABILITY DATE.  
  1  7 
  1  8 BE IT ENACTED BY THE GENERAL ASSEMBLY OF THE STATE OF IOWA:
  1  9 
  1 10    Section 1.  Section 15.333, subsection 1, Code Supplement
  1 11 2001, is amended to read as follows:
  1 12    1.  An eligible business may claim a corporate tax credit
  1 13 up to a maximum of ten percent of the new investment which is
  1 14 directly related to new jobs created by the location or
  1 15 expansion of an eligible business under the program.  Any
  1 16 credit in excess of the tax liability for the tax year may be
  1 17 credited to the tax liability for the following seven years or
  1 18 until depleted, whichever occurs earlier.  Subject to prior
  1 19 approval by the department of economic development in
  1 20 consultation with the department of revenue and finance, an
  1 21 eligible business whose project primarily involves the
  1 22 production of value-added agricultural products may elect to
  1 23 refund all or a portion of an unused tax credit.  For purposes
  1 24 of this section, an eligible business includes a cooperative
  1 25 described in section 521 of the Internal Revenue Code which is
  1 26 not required to file an Iowa corporate income tax return, and
  1 27 whose project primarily involves the production of ethanol.
  1 28 The refund may be used against a tax liability imposed under
  1 29 chapter 422, division II, III, or V.  If the business is a
  1 30 partnership, subchapter S corporation, limited liability
  1 31 company, cooperative organized under chapter 501 and filing as
  1 32 a partnership for federal tax purposes, or estate or trust
  1 33 electing to have the income taxed directly to the individual,
  1 34 an individual may claim the tax credit allowed.  The amount
  1 35 claimed by the individual shall be based upon the pro rata
  2  1 share of the individual's earnings of the partnership,
  2  2 subchapter S corporation, limited liability company,
  2  3 cooperative organized under chapter 501 and filing as a
  2  4 partnership for federal tax purposes, or estate or trust.
  2  5    For purposes of this section, an eligible business includes
  2  6 a cooperative described in section 521 of the Internal Revenue
  2  7 Code which is required to file an Iowa corporate income tax
  2  8 return and whose project primarily involves the production of
  2  9 ethanol may elect to transfer all or a portion of the tax
  2 10 credit to its members.  The amount of tax credit transferred
  2 11 and claimed by a member shall be based upon the pro rata share
  2 12 of the member's earnings of the cooperative.
  2 13    PARAGRAPH DIVIDED.  For purposes of this section, "new
  2 14 investment directly related to new jobs created by the
  2 15 location or expansion of an eligible business under the
  2 16 program" means the cost of machinery and equipment, as defined
  2 17 in section 427A.1, subsection 1, paragraphs "e" and "j",
  2 18 purchased for use in the operation of the eligible business,
  2 19 the purchase price of which has been depreciated in accordance
  2 20 with generally accepted accounting principles, and the cost of
  2 21 improvements made to real property which is used in the
  2 22 operation of the eligible business.
  2 23    Sec. 2.  Section 15E.193C, subsection 7, paragraph a, Code
  2 24 Supplement 2001, is amended to read as follows:
  2 25    a.  An eligible development business may claim a tax credit
  2 26 up to a maximum of ten percent of the new investment that is
  2 27 directly related to the construction, expansion, or
  2 28 rehabilitation of building space to be used for manufacturing,
  2 29 processing, cold storage, distribution, or office facilities.
  2 30 For purposes of this section, "new investment" includes the
  2 31 purchase price of land and the cost of improvements made to
  2 32 real property.  The tax credit may be claimed by an eligible
  2 33 development business for the tax year in which the
  2 34 construction, expansion, or rehabilitation is completed.  The
  2 35 tax credit may be used to reduce the tax liability imposed
  3  1 under chapter 422, division II, III, or V, or chapter 432.
  3  2 Any credit in excess of the tax liability for the tax year may
  3  3 be credited to the tax liability for the following seven years
  3  4 or until depleted, whichever occurs earlier.  If the business
  3  5 is a partnership, S corporation, limited liability company,
  3  6 cooperative organized under chapter 501 and filing as a
  3  7 partnership for federal tax purposes, or estate or trust
  3  8 electing to have the income taxed directly to the individual,
  3  9 an individual may claim the tax credit allowed.  The amount
  3 10 claimed by the individual shall be based upon the pro rata
  3 11 share of the individual's earnings of the partnership, S
  3 12 corporation, limited liability company, cooperative organized
  3 13 under chapter 501 and filing as a partnership for federal tax
  3 14 purposes, or estate or trust.
  3 15    Sec. 3.  APPLICABILITY DATE.  This Act applies
  3 16 retroactively to January 1, 2002, for tax years beginning on
  3 17 or after that date.
