6appropriation.
Analysis by the Legislative Reference Bureau
Under current law, a business located in an enterprise zone may claim an
income and franchise tax credit in an amount up to 1 percent of the amount that the
business paid in the taxable year to purchase tangible personal property, goods, or
services from a vendor located in this state. If the credit amount exceeds the tax
liability of the business, the business receives a refund.
Under this bill, a business located in this state, but not in an enterprise zone,
may also claim a credit equal to 1 percent of the amount that the business paid in the
taxable year to purchase tangible personal property, goods, or services from a vendor
located in this state. If the credit amount exceeds the tax liability of the business,
the business receives a refund.

For further information see the state fiscal estimate, which will be printed as
an appendix to this bill.
