What this bill does

Plain-language analysis by the nonpartisan Legislative Reference Bureau

This bill creates an income and franchise tax credit for a business for two

consecutive taxable years beginning with the taxable year in which the business

locates to this state from another state and begins operations in this state. The credit

is equal to the amount of the taxpayer's income or franchise tax liability after

applying all other credits, deductions, and exclusions. The taxpayer does not receive

a refund of the credit amount, but, instead, may apply the credit amount to

subsequent taxable years.
