What this bill does
Plain-language analysis by the nonpartisan Legislative Reference Bureau
Under current law, a corporation may deduct from its income tax the
compensation paid to its officers and employees. The corporate income tax deduction
for compensation paid to executive officers cannot exceed $1,000,000, unless the
compensation is performance-based.
This bill further limits any single corporate income tax deduction for
compensation paid to an employee or officer to an amount not to exceed the
compensation paid to a corporation's lowest-paid full-time employee multiplied by
25.
