HB 518 FISCAL NOTE
AN ACT changing the prospective repeal date for the research and development tax credit.
FISCAL IMPACT:
The Department of Revenue Administration states this bill may decrease state revenue by an indeterminable amount in FY 2014 and each year thereafter. This bill will have no fiscal impact on state, county, and local expenditures, or county and local revenue.
METHODOLOGY:
The Department of Revenue Administration states this bill would increase the business profits tax research and development (R&D) tax credit over a 5-year period. The Department states the change in law would take effect July 1, 2012, and it appears the intent of the bill is to distribute $5,000,000 of such credit in FY 2013. Credits awarded in FY 2013 must be requested before the end of FY 2012, thus the Department states they would not be able to distribute the $5,000,000 in R&D tax credits in FY 2013. The Department states they are unable to administer the bill as written, and are unable to determine an exact fiscal impact at this time.
