Statutory Authority |
The statutory bases for this rule are sections 39-21-112(1), 39-30-103(7)(a), 39-30-104, 39-30-108(1), 39-22-507.5, and 39-22-507.6, C.R.S. |
Description of Subjects/Issues |
The purpose of the amendment to this rule is to update the application of the enterprise zone investment tax credit. The amendment repeals the entirety of the current rule because the content is outdated or redundant with statute. The new content:
• Clarifies that a taxpayer cannot claim the credit for property that the taxpayer does not actually claim a depreciation expense for federal income tax purposes consistent with Ball Corporation v. Fisher, 51 P.3rd 1053 (Colo. 2001).
• Clarifies that the total combined amount of credit a taxpayer can claim to offset tax and receive a refund for a tax year is limited to $750,000, except that any credits carried forward from tax years commencing prior to January 1, 2014 are not subject to this limit.
• Clarifies that a taxpayer cannot claim the credit allowed by section 39-30-104, C.R.S., and the credit set forth in section 39-22-507.5, C.R.S., for the same property. However, there is no similar statutory language in sections 39-30-104, C.R.S., or 39-22-507.6, C.R.S., that prohibits a taxpayer from claiming both of those credits for the same property.
• Addresses the tax consequence of qualified property not used solely and exclusively in an enterprise zone for at least one year.
• Clarifies that no credit is allowed for property acquired or purchased by the taxpayer prior to submitting the required pre-certification form to the enterprise zone administrator. |
