11 AN ACT relating to income taxation; concerning the exemption of retire- 12 ment benefits therefrom; amending K.S.A. 1996 Supp. 79-32,117 and 13 repealing the existing section. 14 15 Be it enacted by the Legislature of the State of Kansas: 16 Section 1. K.S.A. 1996 Supp. 79-32,117 is hereby amended to read 17 as follows: 79-32,117. (a) The Kansas adjusted gross income of an indi- 18 vidual means such individual's federal adjusted gross income for the tax- 19 able year, with the modifications specified in this section. 20 (b) There shall be added to federal adjusted gross income: 21 (i) Interest income less any related expenses directly incurred in the 22 purchase of state or political subdivision obligations, to the extent that 23 the same is not included in federal adjusted gross income, on obligations 24 of any state or political subdivision thereof, but to the extent that interest 25 income on obligations of this state or a political subdivision thereof issued 26 prior to January 1, 1988, is specifically exempt from income tax under the 27 laws of this state authorizing the issuance of such obligations, it shall be 28 excluded from computation of Kansas adjusted gross income whether or 29 not included in federal adjusted gross income. Interest income on obli- 30 gations of this state or a political subdivision thereof issued after Decem- 31 ber 31, 1987, shall be excluded from computation of Kansas adjusted 32 gross income whether or not included in federal adjusted gross income. 33 (ii) Taxes on or measured by income or fees or payments in lieu of 34 income taxes imposed by this state or any other taxing jurisdiction to the 35 extent deductible in determining federal adjusted gross income and not 36 credited against federal income tax. This paragraph shall not apply to taxes 37 imposed under the provisions of K.S.A. 79-1107 or 79-1108, and amend- 38 ments thereto, for privilege tax year 1995, and all such years thereafter. 39 (iii) The federal net operating loss deduction. 40 (iv) Federal income tax refunds received by the taxpayer if the de- 41 duction of the taxes being refunded resulted in a tax benefit for Kansas 42 income tax purposes during a prior taxable year. Such refunds shall be 43 included in income in the year actually received regardless of the method HB 2452
2

 1  of accounting used by the taxpayer. For purposes hereof, a tax benefit
 2  shall be deemed to have resulted if the amount of the tax had been de-
 3  ducted in determining income subject to a Kansas income tax for a prior
 4  year regardless of the rate of taxation applied in such prior year to the
 5  Kansas taxable income, but only that portion of the refund shall be in-
 6  cluded as bears the same proportion to the total refund received as the
 7  federal taxes deducted in the year to which such refund is attributable
 8  bears to the total federal income taxes paid for such year. For purposes
 9  of the foregoing sentence, federal taxes shall be considered to have been
10  deducted only to the extent such deduction does not reduce Kansas tax-
11  able income below zero.

13  deduction claimed on the taxpayer's federal income tax return for any

20    (vii)  The amount of any charitable contribution made to the extent
21  the same is claimed as the basis for the credit allowed pursuant to K.S.A.

28  gross income but exempt from state income taxes under the laws of the

37  purposes of federal income tax that does not exceed such difference in
