Fiscal Note Summary


Effect this measure will have on costs and revenues of state government.


The stated purpose of this of this bill is to exempt subcontractors from municipal business and occupation taxes. The revenue impact of this proposal on municipal business and occupation tax revenue cannot be determined. Entities reporting gross receipts for the purpose of remitting municipal business and occupation tax do not provide details of activity in their returns. Entities report lump sum gross receipts with no differentiation or demarcation as a “subcontractor”, or copies of any contracts or other work details.
