INSTRUCTIONS FOR SCHEDULE K-220

If any due date falls on a Saturday, Sunday, or legal holiday, substitute the next regular work day.

WHO MAY USE THIS SCHEDULE
Schedule K-220 will help a corporation determine if it paid
the correct amount of estimated tax by the correct due date. If
the minimum amount was not paid on time, an underpayment
penalty will be imposed for the period of underpayment.
Every corporation is required to pay estimated tax for
the taxable year if its Kansas tax liability can reasonably be
expected to exceed $500. A corporation is not required to file
a declaration in its first year of existence in Kansas.
Short Taxable Years. Any estimated tax, payable in
installments, which is not paid before the 15th day of the last
month of a short taxable year shall be paid on the 15th day
of the last month of the short taxable year.

COMPLETING THIS SCHEDULE
Enter your name and your EIN (Employer Identification
Number) in the space provided at the top of this schedule.
LINES 1 through 3: Complete these lines based on
information from your returns for this tax year and from last
tax year.
PART I – EXCEPTIONS TO THE PENALTY
You will NOT be subject to a penalty if your 2023 tax
payments (line 5, columns 1 through 4) equal or exceed the
amounts for one of the exceptions (lines 6 or 7, columns 1
through 4) for the same payment period.
LINE 4: Enter the due date of each estimate payment
installment (15th day of the 4th, 6th, 9th and 12th months for
the tax year).
LINE 5: Enter the cumulative amount of timely paid
estimated tax payment made in each quarter.
EXAMPLE: For a calendar year, column 3 will be the total of
your timely paid estimated payments made from January 1
through September 15, 2023.

LINE 6: Exception 1. This exception applies if the amount
on line 5 of a column equals or exceeds the amount on line
6 for the same column. Enter the amount from line 2 or line
3 (whichever is less) times the percentages shown in each
column of the schedule.
LINE 7: Exception 2. This exception applies if the amount
on line 5 of a column equals or exceeds the amount on line
7 for the same column, if applicable. A corporation may
annualize its income if the corporation made an estimated
tax payment of at least 90% of the amount it would owe if its
estimated tax were a tax computed on annualized taxable
income for the months preceding an installment date. The
computation is as follows:
a) for the first 3 months, if the installment was required to
be paid in the 4th month;
b) for the first 3 months or first 5 months, if installment was
required to be paid in the 6th month;

c)

for the first 6 months or the first 8 months if installment
was required to be paid in the 9th month; and
d) for the first 9 months or first 11 months if installment was
required to be paid in the 12th month.

PART II – FIGURING THE PENALTY
LINE 8: Enter on line 8 the amount of underpayment of
tax, which is the lesser of one of the following computations:
• Line 6 less line 5; or
• Line 7 less line 5
LINE 9: Enter the due date of each estimated payment
installment (15th day of the 4th, 6th, 9th and 12th months of
the tax year).
IMPORTANT—You will need to compute the correct
number of days for each installment for lines 10 and 11 in order
to compute the applicable penalty rate for lines 12 and 13.

LINE 10: Enter in the first column the number of days
from the first installment due date to the next installment due
date and enter the same for the remaining installment due
dates. Do not compute the number of days for this line past
12/31/23. Days past that date are to be entered on line 11.
EXAMPLE: For the fiscal year ending 6/30/24 the installment
due dates are 10/15/23, 12/15/23, 3/15/24 and 6/15/24;
therefore, the taxpayer will enter on line 10 the following
number of days: Column 1 - 10/15/23 to 12/15/23 equals
61 days. Column 2 - 12/15/23 to 12/31/23 equals 16 days.
Columns 3 and 4 of this line will not be completed since
the number of days has been computed to 12/31/23. The
computation for this fiscal year will continue on line 11.

LINE 11: Enter the number of days from 1/1/24 to the
due date of the next installment (if one exists). From the last
installment date enter the number of days to the date paid or
the due date of the return, whichever is earlier. The following
example continues the computation example from line 10.
EXAMPLE FROM ABOVE CONTINUED: Column 1 - blank
since there are no days prior to 1/1/24 on this line. Column
2 - 1/1/24 to 3/15/24 equals 74 days. (Note: The 16 days
previously entered on line 10 plus the 74 days equals the
total number of days from 12/15/23 to 3/15/24.) Column
3 - 3/15/24 to 6/15/24 equals 92 days. Column 4 - to be
computed from 6/15/24 to the date the tax was paid or
10/15/24 (due date of the return), whichever is earlier.

LINES 12 and 13: Penalty is computed to 12/31/23 at 6%
and from 01/01/24 to the date the tax was paid or 4/15/24,
whichever is earlier, at 8%. For fiscal year filers the 8% rate
will be effective until 12/31/25.
LINE 14: For each column add amounts on lines 12 and
13 together and enter the result on line 14.
LINE 15: Add amounts in each column of line 14 and enter
the total on line 15 and on the Estimated Tax Penalty line of
Form K-120. If you are annualizing to meet an exception (line
7, K-220) check the box within the Estimated Tax Penalty line.
