However, 25 the bill exempts web hosting and digital automated services 26 from the sales tax when furnished to a commercial enterprise 27 for use exclusively by the commercial enterprise. 28 The bill exempts “specified digital products” from the sales 29 tax when used in agricultural production. 30 The bill strikes the sales and use tax exemption on the 31 sales price from the sale or rental of computer or computer 32 peripherals by an insurance company, financial institution, or 33 commercial enterprise. 34 The bill exempts from the sales tax the sale of period 35 -10- LSB 6232SV (3) 89 jm/jh 10/ 15
S.F. 2372 products and child and adult diapers. Period products are 1 defined in the bill. 2 The bill strikes “professions and occupations” from 3 the definition of “commercial enterprise” in Code section 4 423.3(104) thus making sales to professions and occupations 5 related to prewritten software, specified digital services, 6 and other services subject to the sales tax. The bill expands 7 the definition of “commercial enterprise” to include a “public 8 utility” as defined in Code section 476.1(3). As a result, the 9 sales price of specified digital products, prewritten computer 10 software, and other enumerated digital and computer services 11 furnished to a public utility are exempt from the sales tax, if 12 exclusively used by the public utility. 13 Currently, a “designated exempt entity” may apply to the 14 department of revenue, under certain circumstances, for the 15 refund of sales or use tax upon the sales price of all sales 16 of building materials, supplies, equipment, or from services 17 furnished to a contractor, used in the performance of a written 18 contract with the designated exempt entity. 19 The bill makes a nonprofit facility licensed by the state 20 built on or after January 1, 2022, a designated exempt entity, 21 if the facility provides residential addiction recovery and 22 emergency shelter services for children under 18 years of age 23 and certain young adults. 24 The bill also makes a county or district fair a designated 25 exempt entity. This provision takes effect upon enactment and 26 applies retroactively to January 1, 2021. The bill allows for 27 refunds of taxes, interest, or penalties arising from claims 28 resulting from the enactment of the bill. The bill limits the 29 refund amount to $25,000 in the aggregate. 30 Except as otherwise provided, the division takes effect 31 January 1, 2023. 32 DIVISION II —— AUTOMOBILE RENTAL EXCISE TAX. The bill 33 repeals an exception for the collection of the automobile 34 rental excise tax of a person or an affiliate of a person who 35 -11- LSB 6232SV (3) 89 jm/jh 11/ 15
S.F. 2372 owns, operates, or controls an automobile peer-to-peer sharing 1 marketplace. 2 This division takes effect January 1, 2023. 3 DIVISION III —— MANUFACTURED FOOD —— SALES TAX EXEMPTION. 4 The bill exempts from the sales tax the sales of certain items 5 and services used by a manufacturer to primarily produce food 6 or food ingredients, including the lease or rental of tangible 7 personal property used to primarily produce such food or food 8 ingredients. 9 The bill defines “food or food ingredients” to mean the same 10 as defined in Code section 423.3(57)(d) and includes tangible 11 personal property that could be sold for ingestion or chewing 12 by humans but is sold for another use. 13 Under current law, in order to receive the sales tax 14 exemption the items or services must be used to produce 15 marketable food products for human consumption. 16 By operation of Code section 423.6, an item exempt from the 17 imposition of the sales tax is also exempt from the use tax 18 imposed in Code section 423.5. 19 The bill requires refunds of taxes, interest, or penalties 20 arising from claims resulting from the enactment of the bill 21 for sales or services occurring between January 1, 2019, and 22 the effective date of the bill to be filed prior to October 23 1, 2022. Refunds of taxes, interest, or penalties shall not 24 exceed $100,000 in the aggregate in any calendar year in which 25 claims are eligible for a refund. If the amount of claims 26 totals more than $100,000 in the aggregate for any calendar 27 year in which claims are eligible for a refund, the department 28 of revenue shall prorate the $100,000 in the aggregate among 29 all the claimants for that particular calendar year. 30 This division takes effect upon enactment and applies 31 retroactively to January 1, 2019. 32 DIVISION IV —— NATIONAL GUARD PAY. The bill exempts from the 33 individual income tax up to $20,000 of pay received by a member 34 of the national guard for any required drills, field exercises, 35 -12- LSB 6232SV (3) 89 jm/jh 12/ 15
S.F. 2372 or in the performance of any other orders under 32 U.S.C. §502. 1 This division applies to tax years beginning on or after 2 January 1, 2023. 3 DIVISION V —— NET OPERATING LOSS DEDUCTION. For tax years 4 beginning on or after January 1, 2023, 2018 Iowa Acts, chapter 5 1161, sections 120, 128, and 129, are set to go into effect, 6 which provide that a net operating loss will no longer be 7 calculated at the state level for individual and corporate 8 income taxpayers, as applicable, and requires such taxpayers 9 to add back any federal net operating loss deduction carried 10 over from a tax year beginning prior to January 1, 2023, but 11 such taxpayers are allowed to deduct any remaining Iowa net 12 operating loss from a prior taxable year. The net operating 13 loss deduction remains available to taxpayers at the federal 14 level. 15 The bill strikes the provisions in 2018 Iowa Acts, chapter 16 1161, disallowing a separate net operating loss calculation 17 at the state level and creates an Iowa net operating loss 18 calculation. 19 INDIVIDUAL INCOME TAXPAYERS. For individual income 20 taxpayers, under the Iowa net operating loss deduction 21 calculation, the taxpayer subtracts the net operating loss 22 carryforward amount from net income calculated as follows: the 23 sum of the aggregate amount of net operating losses arising 24 in taxable years beginning before January 1, 2023, carried to 25 such taxable year, and the lesser of the aggregate amount of 26 net operating losses arising in taxable years beginning after 27 December 31, 2022, carried to such taxable year, or 80 percent 28 of the excess of taxable income, without regard to certain 29 deductions. 30 CORPORATE INCOME TAXPAYERS. For corporate income taxpayers, 31 under the Iowa net operating loss deduction calculation, the 32 taxpayer subtracts the net operating loss carryforward amount 33 from net income as follows: the sum of the aggregate amount 34 of net operating losses arising in taxable years beginning 35 -13- LSB 6232SV (3) 89 jm/jh 13/ 15
S.F. 2372 before January 1, 2023, carried to such taxable year, and the 1 lesser of the aggregate amount of net operating losses arising 2 in taxable years beginning after December 31, 2022, carried 3 to such taxable year, or 80 percent of the excess of taxable 4 income, without regard to certain deductions. 5 The bill provides that the portion of a net operating loss 6 which was sustained from that portion of the trade or business 7 carried on outside the state of Iowa shall not be deducted. 8 The bill provides that a taxpayer is only permitted to deduct 9 the portion of the deduction for net operating loss that is 10 fairly and equitably allocable to Iowa, under rules prescribed 11 by the director or revenue. 12 EFFECTIVE DATE AND APPLICABILITY. This division takes 13 effect January 1, 2023, and applies to tax years beginning on 14 or after that date. 15 DIVISION VI —— CHANGES TO SALE OF CERTAIN QUALIFIED STOCK 16 PROVISIONS. The bill makes changes to provisions related to 17 the sale of certain qualified stock in 2022 Iowa Acts, House 18 File 2317, as enacted. 2022 Iowa Acts, House File 2317, 19 grants an employee-owner one irrevocable lifetime election 20 to exclude from state individual income tax the net capital 21 gain from the state of the capital stock on one qualified 22 corporation. The bill expands the definition of “qualified 23 corporation” to include any “member” of an Iowa affiliate group 24 if the affiliated group is eligible to make a valid election 25 to file an Iowa consolidated income tax return under Code 26 section 422.37 in the year the qualified stock sale deduction 27 is made. The bill expands the definition of “member” under 28 the definition of “qualified corporation” in 2022 Iowa Acts, 29 House File 2317, to include any entity that is eligible to be 30 included in a consolidated return under Code section 422.37(2) 31 if an election is made to file a consolidated return. 32 This division takes effect January 1, 2023, and applies to 33 tax years beginning on or after that date. 34 DIVISION VII —— FRANCHISE TAX.
