7 | | Sec. 2d. Retail incentives, rebate. "Selling price" shall |

10 | | customer and the rebate is deducted by the manufacturer from |
11 | | the price paid by the seller for the item. |
12 | | Section 10. The Retailers' Occupation Tax Act is amended by |
13 | | changing Section 1 as follows:
|
14 | | (35 ILCS 120/1) (from Ch. 120, par. 440)
|
15 | | Sec. 1. Definitions. "Sale at retail" means any transfer of |
16 | | the
ownership of or title to
tangible personal property to a |
17 | | purchaser, for the purpose of use or
consumption, and not for |
18 | | the purpose of resale in any form as tangible
personal property |
19 | | to the extent not first subjected to a use for which it
was |
20 | | purchased, for a valuable consideration: Provided that the |
21 | | property
purchased is deemed to be purchased for the purpose of |
|
| | HB4017 | - 2 - | LRB099 06949 SXM 27031 b |
|
|
1 | | resale, despite
first being used, to the extent to which it is |
2 | | resold as an ingredient of
an intentionally produced product or |
3 | | byproduct of manufacturing. For this
purpose, slag produced as |
4 | | an incident to manufacturing pig iron or steel
and sold is |
5 | | considered to be an intentionally produced byproduct of
|
6 | | manufacturing. Transactions whereby the possession of the |
7 | | property is
transferred but the seller retains the title as |
8 | | security for payment of the
selling price shall be deemed to be |
9 | | sales.
|
10 | | "Sale at retail" shall be construed to include any transfer |
11 | | of the
ownership of or title to tangible personal property to a |
12 | | purchaser, for use
or consumption by any other person to whom |
13 | | such purchaser may transfer the
tangible personal property |
14 | | without a valuable consideration, and to include
any transfer, |
15 | | whether made for or without a valuable consideration, for
|
16 | | resale in any form as tangible personal property unless made in |
17 | | compliance
with Section 2c of this Act.
|
18 | | Sales of tangible personal property, which property, to the |
19 | | extent not
first subjected to a use for which it was purchased, |
20 | | as an ingredient or
constituent, goes into and forms a part of |
21 | | tangible personal property
subsequently the subject of a "Sale |
22 | | at retail", are not sales at retail as
defined in this Act: |
23 | | Provided that the property purchased is deemed to be
purchased |
24 | | for the purpose of resale, despite first being used, to the
|
25 | | extent to which it is resold as an ingredient of an |
26 | | intentionally produced
product or byproduct of manufacturing.
|
|
| | HB4017 | - 3 - | LRB099 06949 SXM 27031 b |
|
|
1 | | "Sale at retail" shall be construed to include any Illinois |
2 | | florist's
sales transaction in which the purchase order is |
3 | | received in Illinois by a
florist and the sale is for use or |
4 | | consumption, but the Illinois florist
has a florist in another |
5 | | state deliver the property to the purchaser or the
purchaser's |
6 | | donee in such other state.
|
7 | | "Sale at retail" shall not include any rebate from a |
8 | | manufacturer to reduce prices to a customer where the seller |
9 | | directly passes the rebate onto the customer and the rebate is |
10 | | deducted by the manufacturer from the price paid by the seller |
11 | | for the item. |
12 | | Nonreusable tangible personal property that is used by |
13 | | persons engaged in
the business of operating a restaurant, |
14 | | cafeteria, or drive-in is a sale for
resale when it is |
15 | | transferred to customers in the ordinary course of business
as |
16 | | part of the sale of food or beverages and is used to deliver, |
17 | | package, or
consume food or beverages, regardless of where |
18 | | consumption of the food or
beverages occurs. Examples of those |
19 | | items include, but are not limited to
nonreusable, paper and |
20 | | plastic cups, plates, baskets, boxes, sleeves, buckets
or other |
21 | | containers, utensils, straws, placemats, napkins, doggie bags, |
22 | | and
wrapping or packaging
materials that are transferred to |
23 | | customers as part of the sale of food or
beverages in the |
24 | | ordinary course of business.

|
|

Act, or, except as otherwise provided with respect to any |

14 | | Act, and on account of the seller's duty to collect, from the

|
16 | | Notwithstanding any law to the contrary, for any motor |
17 | | vehicle, as defined in Section 1-146 of the Vehicle Code, that |
18 | | is sold on or after January 1, 2015 for the purpose of leasing |
19 | | the vehicle for a defined period that is longer than one year |
20 | | and (1) is a motor vehicle of the second division that: (A) is |
21 | | a self-contained motor vehicle designed or permanently |
22 | | converted to provide living quarters for recreational, |
23 | | camping, or travel use, with direct walk through access to the |
24 | | living quarters from the driver's seat; (B) is of the van |
25 | | configuration designed for the transportation of not less than |
26 | | 7 nor more than 16 passengers; or (C) has a gross vehicle |
|
| | HB4017 | - 7 - | LRB099 06949 SXM 27031 b |
|
|
1 | | weight rating of 8,000 pounds or less or (2) is a motor vehicle |
2 | | of the first division, "selling price" or "amount of sale" |
3 | | means the consideration received by the lessor pursuant to the |
4 | | lease contract, including amounts due at lease signing and all |
5 | | monthly or other regular payments charged over the term of the |
6 | | lease. Also included in the selling price is any amount |
7 | | received by the lessor from the lessee for the leased vehicle |
8 | | that is not calculated at the time the lease is executed, |
9 | | including, but not limited to, excess mileage charges and |
10 | | charges for excess wear and tear. For sales that occur in |
11 | | Illinois, with respect to any amount received by the lessor |
12 | | from the lessee for the leased vehicle that is not calculated |
13 | | at the time the lease is executed, the lessor who purchased the |
14 | | motor vehicle does not incur the tax imposed by the Use Tax Act |
15 | | on those amounts, and the retailer who makes the retail sale of |
16 | | the motor vehicle to the lessor is not required to collect the |
17 | | tax imposed by the Use Tax Act or to pay the tax imposed by this |
18 | | Act on those amounts. However, the lessor who purchased the |
19 | | motor vehicle assumes the liability for reporting and paying |
20 | | the tax on those amounts directly to the Department in the same |
21 | | form (Illinois Retailers' Occupation Tax, and local retailers' |
22 | | occupation taxes, if applicable) in which the retailer would |
23 | | have reported and paid such tax if the retailer had accounted |
24 | | for the tax to the Department. For amounts received by the |
25 | | lessor from the lessee that are not calculated at the time the |
26 | | lease is executed, the lessor must file the return and pay the |
|
| | HB4017 | - 8 - | LRB099 06949 SXM 27031 b |
|
|
1 | | tax to the Department by the due date otherwise required by |
2 | | this Act for returns other than transaction returns. If the |
3 | | retailer is entitled under this Act to a discount for |
4 | | collecting and remitting the tax imposed under this Act to the |
5 | | Department with respect to the sale of the motor vehicle to the |
6 | | lessor, then the right to the discount provided in this Act |
7 | | shall be transferred to the lessor with respect to the tax paid |
8 | | by the lessor for any amount received by the lessor from the |
9 | | lessee for the leased vehicle that is not calculated at the |
10 | | time the lease is executed; provided that the discount is only |
11 | | allowed if the return is timely filed and for amounts timely |
12 | | paid. The "selling price" of a motor vehicle that is sold on or |
13 | | after January 1, 2015 for the purpose of leasing for a defined |
14 | | period of longer than one year shall not be reduced by the |
15 | | value of or credit given for traded-in tangible personal |
16 | | property owned by the lessor, nor shall it be reduced by the |
17 | | value of or credit given for traded-in tangible personal |
18 | | property owned by the lessee, regardless of whether the |
19 | | trade-in value thereof is assigned by the lessee to the lessor. |
20 | | In the case of a motor vehicle that is sold for the purpose of |
21 | | leasing for a defined period of longer than one year, the sale |
22 | | occurs at the time of the delivery of the vehicle, regardless |
23 | | of the due date of any lease payments. A lessor who incurs a |
24 | | Retailers' Occupation Tax liability on the sale of a motor |
25 | | vehicle coming off lease may not take a credit against that |
26 | | liability for the Use Tax the lessor paid upon the purchase of |
|
| | HB4017 | - 9 - | LRB099 06949 SXM 27031 b |
|
|
1 | | the motor vehicle (or for any tax the lessor paid with respect |
2 | | to any amount received by the lessor from the lessee for the |
3 | | leased vehicle that was not calculated at the time the lease |
4 | | was executed) if the selling price of the motor vehicle at the |
5 | | time of purchase was calculated using the definition of |
6 | | "selling price" as defined in this paragraph.
Notwithstanding |
7 | | any other provision of this Act to the contrary, lessors shall |
8 | | file all returns and make all payments required under this |
9 | | paragraph to the Department by electronic means in the manner |
10 | | and form as required by the Department. This paragraph does not |
11 | | apply to leases of motor vehicles for which, at the time the |
12 | | lease is entered into, the term of the lease is not a defined |
13 | | period, including leases with a defined initial period with the |
14 | | option to continue the lease on a month-to-month or other basis |
15 | | beyond the initial defined period. |
16 | | The phrase "like kind and character" shall be liberally |
17 | | construed
(including but not limited to any form of motor |
18 | | vehicle for any form of
motor vehicle, or any kind of farm or |
19 | | agricultural implement for any other
kind of farm or |
20 | | agricultural implement), while not including a kind of item
|
21 | | which, if sold at retail by that retailer, would be exempt from |
22 | | retailers'
occupation tax and use tax as an isolated or |
23 | | occasional sale.
|
24 | | "Gross receipts" from the sales of tangible personal |
25 | | property at retail
means the total selling price or the amount |
26 | | of such sales, as hereinbefore
defined. In the case of charge |
|
| | HB4017 | - 10 - | LRB099 06949 SXM 27031 b |
|
|
1 | | and time sales, the amount thereof shall be
included only as |
2 | | and when payments are received by the seller.
Receipts or other |
3 | | consideration derived by a seller from
the sale, transfer or |
4 | | assignment of accounts receivable to a wholly owned
subsidiary |
5 | | will not be deemed payments prior to the time the purchaser
|
6 | | makes payment on such accounts.
|
7 | | "Department" means the Department of Revenue.
|
8 | | "Person" means any natural individual, firm, partnership, |
9 | | association,
joint stock company, joint adventure, public or |
10 | | private corporation, limited
liability company, or a receiver, |
11 | | executor, trustee, guardian or other
representative appointed |
12 | | by order of any court.
|
13 | | The isolated or occasional sale of tangible personal |
14 | | property at retail
by a person who does not hold himself out as |
15 | | being engaged (or who does not
habitually engage) in selling |
16 | | such tangible personal property at retail, or
a sale through a |
17 | | bulk vending machine, does not constitute engaging in a
|
18 | | business of selling such tangible personal property at retail |
19 | | within the
meaning of this Act; provided that any person who is |
20 | | engaged in a business
which is not subject to the tax imposed |
21 | | by this Act because of involving
the sale of or a contract to |
22 | | sell real estate or a construction contract to
improve real |
23 | | estate or a construction contract to engineer, install, and
|
24 | | maintain an integrated system of products, but who, in the |
25 | | course of
conducting such business,
transfers tangible |
26 | | personal property to users or consumers in the finished
form in |
|
| | HB4017 | - 11 - | LRB099 06949 SXM 27031 b |
|
|
1 | | which it was purchased, and which does not become real estate |
2 | | or was
not engineered and installed, under any provision of a |
3 | | construction contract or
real estate sale or real estate sales |
4 | | agreement entered into with some other
person arising out of or |
5 | | because of such nontaxable business, is engaged in the
business |
6 | | of selling tangible personal property at retail to the extent |
7 | | of the
value of the tangible personal property so transferred. |
8 | | If, in such a
transaction, a separate charge is made for the |
9 | | tangible personal property so
transferred, the value of such |
10 | | property, for the purpose of this Act, shall be
the amount so |
11 | | separately charged, but not less than the cost of such property
|
12 | | to the transferor; if no separate charge is made, the value of |
13 | | such property,
for the purposes of this Act, is the cost to the |
14 | | transferor of such tangible
personal property. Construction |
15 | | contracts for the improvement of real estate
consisting of |
16 | | engineering, installation, and maintenance of voice, data, |
17 | | video,
security, and all telecommunication systems do not |
18 | | constitute engaging in a
business of selling tangible personal |
19 | | property at retail within the meaning of
this Act if they are |
20 | | sold at one specified contract price.
|
21 | | A person who holds himself or herself out as being engaged |
22 | | (or who habitually
engages) in selling tangible personal |
23 | | property at retail is a person
engaged in the business of |
24 | | selling tangible personal property at retail
hereunder with |
25 | | respect to such sales (and not primarily in a service
|
26 | | occupation) notwithstanding the fact that such person designs |
|
| | HB4017 | - 12 - | LRB099 06949 SXM 27031 b |
|
|
1 | | and produces
such tangible personal property on special order |
2 | | for the purchaser and in
such a way as to render the property |
3 | | of value only to such purchaser, if
such tangible personal |
4 | | property so produced on special order serves
substantially the |
5 | | same function as stock or standard items of tangible
personal |
6 | | property that are sold at retail.
|
7 | | Persons who engage in the business of transferring tangible |
8 | | personal
property upon the redemption of trading stamps are |
9 | | engaged in the business
of selling such property at retail and |
10 | | shall be liable for and shall pay
the tax imposed by this Act |
11 | | on the basis of the retail value of the
property transferred |
12 | | upon redemption of such stamps.
|
13 | | "Bulk vending machine" means a vending machine,
containing |
14 | | unsorted confections, nuts, toys, or other items designed
|
15 | | primarily to be used or played with by children
which, when a |

|
17 | | inserted, are dispensed in equal portions, at random and
|
18 | | without selection by the customer.
