Each member of a unitary group of corporations that earns or is allowed the credit must complete a separate Form 49. Qualified Depreciable Property and Nonqualifying property Idaho generally follows the definition of qualified property found in the Internal Revenue Code (IRC) sections 46 and 48 as in effect before 1986. The property must have a useful life of three years or more and be property that you’re allowed to depreciate or amortize. Qualifying property includes the following property used in a trade or business: • Tangible personal property – machinery and equipment • Other tangible property ƒ Property used as an integral part of manufacturing, production, extraction, or ƒ Furnishing transportation, communications, or utility services, or ƒ Research facilities and bulk storage facilities used in connection with those businesses • Elevators and escalators • Single-purpose agricultural or horticultural structures • Qualified timber property • Petroleum storage facilities • Qualified broadband equipment as approved by the Idaho Public Utilities Commission Nonqualified Property Property that doesn’t qualify includes: • Buildings and their structural components • Property used in lodging facilities that rent 50% or more of their lodging units for periods of 30 days or longer, such as apartment houses or rental homes • The cost of property expensed under IRC section 179 • Used property not acquired by purchase EIN00076 09-05-2023  2023 • The portion of property used for personal use • Used property in excess of $150,000 (total • • • • of all properties) Horses Property not used in Idaho Vehicles under 8,000 pounds gross vehicle weight (GVW) Property previously used by the same taxpayer or an affiliate of the taxpayer Property Used Both In and Outside Idaho If property is used both in and outside Idaho, compute the qualified investment for all such property using one of the following methods: 1. Percentage-of-Use Method – Multiply the investment in each asset by a fraction where Idaho use is the numerator and total use is the denominator. Use can be measured by machine hours, mileage, or any other method that accurately reflects the use. 2. Property Factor Numerator Method – Use the amount correctly included in the Idaho property numerator for each asset. The amount computed in method #2 generally will be the same as that computed in method #1 unless your business uses the Multistate Tax Commission’s special-industry regulations to compute its factors. Carryover Periods Compute the ITC carryover on Form 49C. • For credit earned in tax years beginning on or after January 1, 2000, the credit carryover is limited to 14 tax years. For purposes of the carryover period, a short tax year counts as one tax year. Election to Claim Two-Year Property Tax Exemption Instead of ITC If you placed personal property in service that qualifies for the ITC, you may elect to exempt this property from your property tax. If federal or state law regulates or limits your rate of charge or rate of return, you aren’t eligible for the election. The exemption from the property tax is for two years. After the two years, you must pay any applicable property tax. You can’t claim the ITC for any property that you elect to exempt from property tax. Page 1 of 3 Form 49 — Instructions The election is available if you had negative Idaho taxable income in the second preceding tax year from the tax year when the property was placed in service. Negative Idaho taxable income must have been computed without any carryover or carryback of net operating losses. Make the election on Form 49E and file with the operator’s statement or personal property declaration. Include a copy of the election form with the original income tax returns for the tax years when the property was placed in service. Recapture Compute recapture if you sell or otherwise dispose of the property, or if it no longer qualifies for the ITC before it’s been in service for five full years. File Form 49R if you claimed the ITC. File Form 49ER if you claimed the property tax exemption. Specific Instructions Instructions are for lines not fully explained on the form. Part I — Credit Available Subject to Limitation Line 1a. Include a list of all property you acquired and placed in service during the tax year that qualifies for the ITC. The list should identify: • Each item of property and its location • Your basis in the item • Whether the item is new or used, and • The date placed in service The basis of qualified property is the Idaho adjusted basis computed without bonus depreciation.

FORM 49 is an Idaho Corporate Income Tax form. States often have dozens of even hundreds of various tax credits, which, unlike deductions, provide a dollar-for-dollar reduction of tax liability. Some common tax credits apply to many taxpayers, while others only apply to extremely specific situations. In most cases, you will have to provide evidence to show that you are eligible for the tax credit, and calculate the amount of the credit to which you are entitled.

About the Corporate Income Tax

The IRS and most states require corporations to file an income tax return, with the exact filing requirements depending on the type of company.

Sole proprietorships or disregarded entities like LLCs are filed on Schedule C (or the state equivalent) of the owner's personal income tax return, flow-through entities like S Corporations or Partnerships are generally required to file an informational return equivilent to the IRS Form 1120S or Form 1065, and full corporations must file the equivalent of federal Form 1120 (and, unlike flow-through corporations, are often subject to a corporate tax liability).

Additional forms are available for a wide variety of specific entities and transactions including fiduciaries, nonprofits, and companies involved in other specific types of business.
