Fiscal Note Summary
Effect this measure will have on costs and revenues of state government.
The stated purpose of this bill is to reduce the 40 percent limitation of tax credit allowed for manufacturing investment to 25 percent.
According to our interpretation of this bill, for tax years beginning on and after January 1, 2023, the tax credit offset for the Manufacturing Investment Tax Credit would be increased from up to 60 percent of Severance Tax and Corporation Net Income Tax liabilities to 75 percent. Many of the qualified Manufacturing Investment Tax Credit taxpayers who pay Severance Tax were in the limestone or sandstone industry. The Severance Tax on limestone or sandstone terminated on July 1, 2019; therefore, the proposed changes to the Manufacturing Investment Tax Credit will primarily be related to Corporation Net Income Tax credit offsets. The Manufacturing Investment Tax Credit currently reduces General Revenue Fund collections by an estimated $2.0 million per year. Passage of this bill would result in an additional loss of $0.5 million to the General Revenue Fund in FY2025 and thereafter.
Additional administrative costs incurred by the State Tax Department would be $10,000 in FY2023.
