relating to the inclusion by taxable entities and combined groups | ||
that conduct certain oil and gas activities of certain costs in the | ||
cost of goods sold for purposes of the franchise tax. | ||
BE IT ENACTED BY THE LEGISLATURE OF THE STATE OF TEXAS: | ||
SECTION 1. Section 171.1012, Tax Code, is amended by adding | ||
Subsection (k-2) to read as follows: | ||
(k-2) This subsection applies only to a taxable entity that | ||
is primarily engaged in gathering, storing, transporting, or | ||
processing products described by Industry Group 132, 461, 492, or | ||
517 of the 1987 Standard Industrial Classification Manual published | ||
by the federal Office of Management and Budget, except for a | ||
refinery installation that manufactures finished petroleum | ||
products from crude oil. Notwithstanding Subsection (e)(3) or (i) | ||
or any other provision of this section, a taxable entity to which | ||
this subsection applies may subtract as a cost of goods sold its | ||
depreciation costs, its operation and maintenance costs, and any | ||
other allowable cost under this section, subject also to the | ||
limitations of this section. If a taxable entity to which this | ||
subsection applies is a member of a combined group that has elected | ||
under Section 171.1014(d) to subtract cost of goods sold, the | ||
combined group may elect to compute its costs of goods sold for | ||
purposes of Section 171.1014(e) including depreciation, | ||
operations, and maintenance costs of each qualifying entity as a | ||
cost of goods sold. | ||
SECTION 2. This Act applies only to a report originally due | ||
on or after the effective date of this Act. | ||
SECTION 3. This Act takes effect January 1, 2014. |
