facility that employs at least 100 individuals on a full-time equivalent
basis in this state and has any investment company fund shareholders
residenced in this state shall be apportioned to this state as provided in
this subsection, as follows:
    (A) By multiplying the investment funds service corporation's

year that ends with or within the investment funds service corporation's
taxable year.
    (B) A separate computation shall be made to determine the
qualifying business income from each fund of each investment
company. The qualifying business income from each investment
company shall be multiplied by the fraction calculated pursuant to
paragraph (A) for each fund of such investment company.
    (C) The qualifying portion of total business income of an
investment funds service corporation shall be determined by
multiplying such total business income by a fraction, the numerator of
which is the gross receipts from the provision of management,
distribution and administration services to or on behalf of an
investment company, and the denominator of which is the gross
receipts of the investment funds service company. To the extent an
investment funds service corporation has business income that is not
qualifying business income, such business income shall be apportioned
to this state pursuant to subsection (b)(1).
    (D) For tax year 2002, the tax liability of an investment funds

unitary group, the business income of the unitary group attributable to
the investment funds service corporation shall be determined by
multiplying the business income of the unitary group by a fraction, the
numerator of which is the property factor plus the payroll factor plus

factor is a fraction, the numerator of which is the average value of the
investment funds service corporation's real and tangible personal
property owned or rented and used during the tax period and the
denominator of which is the average value of the unitary group's real

total amount paid during the tax period by the investment funds service
corporation for compensation, and the denominator of which is the total
compensation paid by the unitary group during the tax period. The sales
factor is a fraction, the numerator of which is the total sales of the
investment funds service corporation during the tax period, and the
denominator of which is the total sales of the unitary group during the
tax period.
    (F) A taxpayer seeking to make the election available pursuant to
subsection (b)(5) this paragraph shall only be eligible to continue to
make such election if the taxpayer maintains at least 95% of the Kansas
employees in existence at the time the taxpayer first makes such an
election.

such employees higher-than-average wages within the wage region for
such facility:
    (i) The taxpayer's new Kansas business facility with 500 or fewer
full-time equivalent employees will provide an average wage that is
above the average wage paid by all Kansas business facilities that share
the same assigned NAICS category used to develop wage thresholds
and that have reported 500 or fewer employees to the Kansas
department of labor on the quarterly wage reports;
    (ii) the taxpayer's new Kansas business facility with 500 or fewer
full-time equivalent employees is the sole facility within its assigned
NAICS category that has reported wages for 500 or fewer employees to

taxpayer's new Kansas business facility is greater than or equal to 1.5
times the aggregate state-wide average wage paid by industries covered
by the employment security law based on data maintained by the
secretary of labor.
    (B) For the purposes of the wage requirements in paragraph (A),
the number of full-time equivalent employees shall be determined by
dividing the number of hours worked by part-time employees during
the pertinent measurement interval by an amount equal to the
corresponding multiple of a 40-hour work week and adding the
quotient to the average number of full-time employees.
    (C) When the qualifying taxpayer is part of a unitary group, the

real and tangible personal property owned or rented and used during
the tax period. The payroll factor is a fraction, the numerator of which
is the total amount paid during the tax period by the qualifying taxpayer
for compensation, and the denominator of which is the total
compensation paid by the unitary group during the tax period. The sales

company's financial statements prepared in accordance with generally
accepted accounting principles, shall be eligible for this deduction.
    (3) If the provisions of this section result in an aggregate increase
in the taxpayer's net deferred tax liability or an aggregate decrease in
the taxpayer's net deferred tax asset, or an aggregate change from a net
deferred tax asset to a net deferred tax liability, the taxpayer shall be
entitled to a deduction, as determined in this subsection. For the
purposes of this section, the term "taxpayer" includes a unitary group of
businesses that is required to file a combined report. The deferred tax

paragraph, as of the end of the tax year prior to tax year 2025. The
amount of the deduction shall equal the annual deferred tax deduction
amount set forth in paragraph (5).

as follows:
    (A) The deferred tax impact determined in paragraph (4) shall be
divided by the income tax rate for corporations in effect for the tax year
pursuant to K.S.A. 79-32,110, and amendments thereto;
    (B) the resulting amount shall be further divided by the Kansas
apportionment factor that was used by the taxpayer in the calculation of
the deferred tax assets and deferred tax liabilities as provided in this
subsection; and
    (C) the result multiplied by 1/10 shall represent the total net
deferred tax deduction available for the first tax year beginning on or
after January 1, 2035, and the next nine successive tax years.
    (6) The deduction calculated under paragraph (5) shall not be
adjusted as a result of any events subsequent to such calculation,
including, but not limited to, any disposition or abandonment of assets.
Such deduction shall be calculated without regard to any tax liabilities
under the federal internal revenue code and shall not alter the tax basis
of any asset. If the deduction under this section is greater than the
taxpayer's net business income before apportionment, any excess
deduction shall be carried forward and applied as a deduction for future
tax years until fully utilized.
    (7) At the discretion of the taxpayer, the taxpayer shall be allowed

    (b) There shall be added to federal adjusted gross income:
    (i) Interest income less any related expenses directly incurred in
the purchase of state or political subdivision obligations, to the extent
that the same is not included in federal adjusted gross income, on
obligations of any state or political subdivision thereof, but to the
extent that interest income on obligations of this state or a political
subdivision thereof issued prior to January 1, 1988, is specifically
exempt from income tax under the laws of this state authorizing the
issuance of such obligations, it shall be excluded from computation of
Kansas adjusted gross income whether or not included in federal
adjusted gross income. Interest income on obligations of this state or a
political subdivision thereof issued after December 31, 1987, shall be
excluded from computation of Kansas adjusted gross income whether
or not included in federal adjusted gross income.

tax benefit shall be deemed to have resulted if the amount of the tax
had been deducted in determining income subject to a Kansas income
tax for a prior year regardless of the rate of taxation applied in such
prior year to the Kansas taxable income, but only that portion of the
refund shall be included as bears the same proportion to the total refund
received as the federal taxes deducted in the year to which such refund

considered to have been deducted only to the extent such deduction
does not reduce Kansas taxable income below zero.
