HB2950 Engrossed                               LRB9008806KDcd
 1        AN ACT in relation to 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        With respect to gasohol, the  tax  imposed  by  this  Act
30    applies  to  70%  of  the  proceeds of sales made on or after
31    January 1, 1990, and before July 1, 2003 1999, and to 100% of
HB2950 Engrossed            -2-                LRB9008806KDcd
 1    the proceeds of sales made thereafter, except that from  July
 2    1,  1997  to  July 1, 1999, the rate shall be 85% for gasohol
 3    sold in this State during the  12  months  beginning  July  1
 4    following  any  calendar  year  for  which the Department has
 5    determined that the percentages in Section 10 of the  Gasohol
 6    Fuels Tax Abatement Act have not been met.
 7        With  respect to food for human consumption that is to be
 8    consumed off the  premises  where  it  is  sold  (other  than
 9    alcoholic  beverages,  soft  drinks,  and  food that has been
10    prepared for  immediate  consumption)  and  prescription  and
11    nonprescription   medicines,   drugs,   medical   appliances,
12    modifications to a motor vehicle for the purpose of rendering
13    it  usable  by  a disabled person, and insulin, urine testing
14    materials, syringes, and needles used by diabetics, for human
15    use, the tax is imposed at the rate of 1%. For  the  purposes
16    of  this  Section, the term "soft drinks" means any complete,
17    finished,   ready-to-use,   non-alcoholic   drink,    whether
18    carbonated  or  not, including but not limited to soda water,
19    cola, fruit juice, vegetable juice, carbonated water, and all
20    other preparations commonly known as soft drinks of  whatever
21    kind  or  description  that  are  contained  in any closed or
22    sealed bottle, can, carton, or container, regardless of size.
23    "Soft drinks" does not include  coffee,  tea,  non-carbonated
24    water,  infant  formula,  milk or milk products as defined in
25    the Grade A Pasteurized Milk and Milk Products Act, or drinks
26    containing 50% or more natural fruit or vegetable juice.
27        Notwithstanding any other provisions of this  Act,  "food
28    for human consumption that is to be consumed off the premises
29    where  it  is  sold" includes all food sold through a vending
30    machine, except  soft  drinks  and  food  products  that  are
31    dispensed  hot  from  a  vending  machine,  regardless of the
32    location of the vending machine.
33        If the property  that  is  purchased  at  retail  from  a
34    retailer  is  acquired  outside  Illinois  and  used  outside
HB2950 Engrossed            -3-                LRB9008806KDcd
 1    Illinois before being brought to Illinois for use here and is
 2    taxable  under this Act, the "selling price" on which the tax
 3    is computed shall be reduced by an amount that  represents  a
 4    reasonable allowance for depreciation for the period of prior
 5    out-of-state use.

 8        Section 10.  The  Service  Use  Tax  Act  is  amended  by
 9    changing Section 3-10 as follows:
10        (35 ILCS 110/3-10) (from Ch. 120, par. 439.33-10)
11        Sec.  3-10.   Rate  of tax.  Unless otherwise provided in
12    this Section, the tax imposed by this Act is at the  rate  of
13    6.25%  of  the  selling  price  of tangible personal property
14    transferred as an incident to the sale of service,  but,  for
15    the  purpose  of  computing  this  tax, in no event shall the
16    selling price be less than the cost price of the property  to
17    the serviceman.
18        With  respect  to gasohol, as defined in the Use Tax Act,
19    the tax imposed by this Act applies to  70%  of  the  selling
20    price  of  property transferred as an incident to the sale of
21    service on or after January 1, 1990, and before July 1,  2003
22    1999,  and  to  100%  of the selling price thereafter, except
23    that from July 1, 1997 to July 1, 1999, the rate shall be 85%
24    for gasohol sold in this State during the 12 months beginning
25    July 1 following any calendar year for which  the  Department
26    has  determined  that  the  percentages  in Section 10 of the
27    Gasohol Fuels Tax Abatement Act have not been met.
28        At the election of any  registered  serviceman  made  for
29    each  fiscal  year,  sales  of service in which the aggregate
30    annual cost price of tangible personal  property  transferred
31    as  an  incident to the sales of service is less than 35%, or
32    75% in the case of servicemen transferring prescription drugs
HB2950 Engrossed            -4-                LRB9008806KDcd
 1    or servicemen engaged in  graphic  arts  production,  of  the
 2    aggregate  annual  total  gross  receipts  from  all sales of
 3    service, the tax imposed by this Act shall be  based  on  the
 4    serviceman's  cost  price  of  the tangible personal property
 5    transferred as an incident to the sale of those services.
 6        The tax shall be imposed  at  the  rate  of  1%  on  food
 7    prepared  for  immediate consumption and transferred incident
 8    to a sale of service subject  to  this  Act  or  the  Service
 9    Occupation  Tax  Act by an entity licensed under the Hospital
10    Licensing Act or the Nursing Home Care Act.   The  tax  shall
11    also  be  imposed  at  the  rate  of  1%  on  food  for human
12    consumption that is to be consumed off the premises where  it
13    is  sold  (other  than  alcoholic beverages, soft drinks, and

15    not  otherwise  included  in this paragraph) and prescription
16    and nonprescription  medicines,  drugs,  medical  appliances,

18    it  usable  by  a disabled person, and insulin, urine testing
19    materials, syringes, and needles used by diabetics, for human
20    use. For the purposes of this Section, the term "soft drinks"
21    means any  complete,  finished,  ready-to-use,  non-alcoholic
22    drink,  whether  carbonated or not, including but not limited
23    to soda water, cola, fruit juice, vegetable juice, carbonated
24    water, and all other  preparations  commonly  known  as  soft
25    drinks  of whatever kind or description that are contained in
26    any closed or  sealed  bottle,  can,  carton,  or  container,
27    regardless  of  size.  "Soft drinks" does not include coffee,

31    or vegetable juice.
32        Notwithstanding  any  other provisions of this Act, "food

34    where it is sold" includes all food sold  through  a  vending

 1    machine,  except  soft  drinks  and  food  products  that are
 2    dispensed hot from  a  vending  machine,  regardless  of  the
 3    location of the vending machine.
 4        If  the  property  that  is acquired from a serviceman is
 5    acquired outside Illinois and used  outside  Illinois  before
 6    being  brought  to Illinois for use here and is taxable under
 7    this Act, the "selling price" on which the  tax  is  computed
 8    shall  be  reduced  by an amount that represents a reasonable
 9    allowance  for  depreciation  for   the   period   of   prior
10    out-of-state use.
11    (Source: P.A.  88-45;  89-359,  eff.  8-17-95;  89-420,  eff.
12    6-1-96; 89-463, eff. 5-31-96; 89-626, eff. 8-9-96.)
13        Section 15.  The Service Occupation Tax Act is amended by
14    changing Section 3-10 as follows:
15        (35 ILCS 115/3-10) (from Ch. 120, par. 439.103-10)
16        Sec.  3-10.  Rate  of  tax.  Unless otherwise provided in

18    6.25%  of the "selling price", as defined in Section 2 of the
19    Service Use Tax Act, of the tangible personal property.   For
20    the  purpose  of  computing  this  tax, in no event shall the
21    "selling price" be less than the cost price to the serviceman
22    of the tangible personal property transferred.   The  selling
23    price  of each item of tangible personal property transferred
24    as an incident of a  sale  of  service  may  be  shown  as  a
25    distinct and separate item on the serviceman's billing to the
26    service  customer.  If the selling price is not so shown, the
27    selling price of the tangible personal property is deemed  to
28    be  50%  of  the  serviceman's  entire billing to the service
29    customer.  When, however, a serviceman contracts  to  design,
30    develop,  and  produce  special order machinery or equipment,
31    the  tax  imposed  by  this  Act  shall  be  based   on   the
32    serviceman's  cost  price  of  the tangible personal property

 4    price of property transferred as an incident to the  sale  of
 5    service  on or after January 1, 1990, and before July 1, 2003
 6    1999, and to 100% of the cost price thereafter,  except  that
 7    from  July 1, 1997 to July 1, 1999, the rate shall be 85% for
 8    gasohol sold in this State during  the  12  months  beginning
 9    July  1  following any calendar year for which the Department
10    has determined that the percentages  in  Section  10  of  the
11    Gasohol Fuels Tax Abatement Act have not been met.
12        At  the  election  of  any registered serviceman made for
13    each fiscal year, sales of service  in  which  the  aggregate
14    annual  cost  price of tangible personal property transferred
15    as an incident to the sales of service is less than  35%,  or
16    75% in the case of servicemen transferring prescription drugs
17    or  servicemen  engaged  in  graphic  arts production, of the
18    aggregate annual total  gross  receipts  from  all  sales  of
19    service,  the  tax  imposed by this Act shall be based on the
20    serviceman's cost price of  the  tangible  personal  property
21    transferred incident to the sale of those services.
22        The  tax  shall  be  imposed  at  the  rate of 1% on food
23    prepared for immediate consumption and  transferred  incident
24    to  a  sale  of  service  subject  to this Act or the Service
25    Occupation Tax Act by an entity licensed under  the  Hospital
26    Licensing  Act  or  the Nursing Home Care Act.  The tax shall
27    also be  imposed  at  the  rate  of  1%  on  food  for  human
28    consumption  that is to be consumed off the premises where it
29    is sold (other than alcoholic  beverages,  soft  drinks,  and
30    food  that has been prepared for immediate consumption and is
31    not otherwise included in this  paragraph)  and  prescription
32    and  nonprescription  medicines,  drugs,  medical appliances,
33    modifications to a motor vehicle for the purpose of rendering
34    it usable by a disabled person, and  insulin,  urine  testing
