LRB093 05029 SJM 05088 b
1 AN ACT concerning taxes.
2 Be it enacted by the People of the State of Illinois,
3 represented in the General Assembly:
4 Section 5. The Use Tax Act is amended by changing
5 Section 3-10 as follows:
6 (35 ILCS 105/3-10) (from Ch. 120, par. 439.3-10)
7 Sec. 3-10. Rate of tax. Unless otherwise provided in
8 this Section, the tax imposed by this Act is at the rate of
9 6.25% of either the selling price or the fair market value,
10 if any, of the tangible personal property. In all cases
11 where property functionally used or consumed is the same as
12 the property that was purchased at retail, then the tax is
13 imposed on the selling price of the property. In all cases
14 where property functionally used or consumed is a by-product
15 or waste product that has been refined, manufactured, or
16 produced from property purchased at retail, then the tax is
17 imposed on the lower of the fair market value, if any, of the
18 specific property so used in this State or on the selling
19 price of the property purchased at retail. For purposes of
20 this Section "fair market value" means the price at which
21 property would change hands between a willing buyer and a
22 willing seller, neither being under any compulsion to buy or
23 sell and both having reasonable knowledge of the relevant
24 facts. The fair market value shall be established by Illinois
25 sales by the taxpayer of the same property as that
26 functionally used or consumed, or if there are no such sales
27 by the taxpayer, then comparable sales or purchases of
28 property of like kind and character in Illinois.
29 Beginning on July 1, 2000 and through December 31, 2000,
30 with respect to motor fuel, as defined in Section 1.1 of the

5 to 100% of the proceeds of sales made thereafter.
6 With respect to food for human consumption that is to be
7 consumed off the premises where it is sold (other than
8 alcoholic beverages, soft drinks, and food that has been
9 prepared for immediate consumption) and prescription and

11 modifications to a motor vehicle for the purpose of rendering
12 it usable by a disabled person, and insulin, urine testing
13 materials, syringes, and needles used by diabetics, for human
14 use, the tax is imposed at the rate of 1%. For the purposes
15 of this Section, the term "soft drinks" means any complete,
16 finished, ready-to-use, non-alcoholic drink, whether
17 carbonated or not, including but not limited to soda water,
18 cola, fruit juice, vegetable juice, carbonated water, and all
19 other preparations commonly known as soft drinks of whatever
20 kind or description that are contained in any closed or
21 sealed bottle, can, carton, or container, regardless of size.

23 water, infant formula, milk or milk products as defined in
24 the Grade A Pasteurized Milk and Milk Products Act, or drinks
25 containing 50% or more natural fruit or vegetable juice.
26 Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Act, "food
27 for human consumption that is to be consumed off the premises
28 where it is sold" includes all food sold through a vending
29 machine, except soft drinks and food products that are
30 dispensed hot from a vending machine, regardless of the
31 location of the vending machine.
32 If the property that is purchased at retail from a
33 retailer is acquired outside Illinois and used outside
34 Illinois before being brought to Illinois for use here and is
-3- LRB093 05029 SJM 05088 b
1 taxable under this Act, the "selling price" on which the tax
2 is computed shall be reduced by an amount that represents a
3 reasonable allowance for depreciation for the period of prior
4 out-of-state use.
