AI Summary

  • Expands retailer compensation provisions to apply to all sales, use, and gross receipts taxes under chapters 57-39.2, 57-39.5, 57-39.6, and 57-40.2, replacing previous limitations specific to individual tax types.

  • Establishes a tiered compensation structure with three rates based on monthly tax amounts: rate one (up to $6,250 of tax), rate two ($6,250-$62,500 of tax), and rate three ($62,500-$750,000 of tax, or $1,000,000 if state and local taxes exceed $1 billion annually).

  • Sets target compensation at three-fourths of one percent of total state and local taxes collected annually, with the tax commissioner calculating rates to be effective July 1st each year using a specified formula.

  • Maintains aggregate deduction cap of $85 per month and prevents retailers from receiving compensation under multiple subsections for the same period.

  • Applies to home rule counties and cities, making any charter or ordinance provisions that conflict with retailer compensation requirements invalid to the extent of non-conformity.

  • Effective for taxable events occurring after December 31, 2012.
