3 32 EXPLANATION
3 33 This bill updates the references to the Internal Revenue
3 34 Code to make the federal income tax revisions enacted by
3 35 Congress in 2003 applicable for Iowa income tax purposes.
4 1 Code sections 15.335, 15A.9, 422.10, and 422.33 are amended
4 2 to update the Iowa Code references to the state research
4 3 activities credit for individuals, corporations, corporations
4 4 in economic development areas, and corporations in quality
4 5 jobs enterprise zones to include the 2003 federal changes in
4 6 the research activities credit.
4 7 The bill amends Code sections 422.7 and 422.35 to couple
4 8 with the changes to the bonus depreciation deduction enacted
4 9 in the federal Jobs and Growth Tax Relief Reconciliation Act
4 10 of 2003 (Pub. L. No. 108=27). However, the bonus depreciation
4 11 of 50 percent allowed in that law would only be allowed for
4 12 state income tax purposes for qualified property acquired
4 13 after December 31, 2003, and before January 1, 2005.
4 14 The bill is retroactively applicable to January 1, 2003,
4 15 for tax years beginning on or after that date. The provisions
4 16 of the bill coupling with the changes to the federal bonus
4 17 depreciation apply retroactively to tax years ending after May
4 18 5, 2003.
4 19 The bill takes effect upon enactment.
