The term net operating loss deduction means the sum of the Idaho net operating losses carried to another taxable year and subtracted in computing Idaho taxable income. (4-6-23) b. A net operating loss is absorbed when it has been fully subtracted from Idaho taxable income, as modified by Section 63-3021, Idaho Code. (4-6-23) 02. Adjustments to Net Operating Losses. (4-6-23) a. Adjustments to a net operating loss will be determined pursuant to the law applicable to the loss year. (4-6-23) b. Adjustments to a net operating loss deduction may be made even though the loss year is closed due to the statute of limitations, but will not result in any tax due or refund for the closed taxable years. (4-6-23) 03. Adjustments in Carryback and Carryover Years. (4-6-23) a. Adjustments to income, including modifications pursuant to Section 63-3021, Idaho Code, in a carryback or carryover year must be made for purposes of determining, how much, if any, of the net operating loss may be carried over to subsequent years. (4-6-23) b. Adjustments are made pursuant to the law applicable to the carryback or carryover year. (4-6-23) c. Adjustments may be made even though the year is closed due to the statute of limitations, but will not result in any tax due or refund for the closed taxable years. (4-6-23) 04. Net Operating Loss Carrybacks Application. (4-6-23) a. The net operating loss carryback allowed for the entire carryback period may not exceed one hundred thousand dollars ($100,000) per taxpayer.

The sum of net operating loss deductions must not exceed the amount of the net operating loss incurred. (4-6-23) IDAHO ADMINISTRATIVE CODE IDAPA 35.01.01 Idaho State Tax Commission Income Tax Administrative Rules Section 201 Page 28 c. For taxable years beginning prior to January 1, 2013, if the taxpayer makes a valid election to forego the carryback period as provided in Subsection 201.05, the provisions of Subsection 201.04.c. do not apply and the net operating loss carryover is applied as follows: (4-6-23) i. For net operating losses incurred in taxable years beginning on and after January 1, 2000, but prior to January 1, 2013, the net operating loss is subtracted in the twenty (20) succeeding taxable years, in order, until the loss is absorbed. (4-6-23) d. For taxable years beginning prior to January 1, 2013, if the taxpayer fails to make a valid election to forego the carryback period, the net operating loss must be carried back. If a carryback year is closed due to the statute of limitations, the net operating loss carryback may not result in a refund for the closed taxable year. (4-6-23) e. For net operating losses incurred in taxable years beginning on and after January 1, 2013, if an amended return carrying back the loss is filed within one (1) year of the end of the taxable year of the net operating loss, the net operating loss is applied to the second preceding taxable year and if not absorbed, the difference is applied to the first preceding taxable year. The loss not absorbed in the carryback years is subtracted in the twenty (20) succeeding taxable years, in order, until absorbed. (4-6-23) 05. Timing and Method of Electing to Forego Carryback For Taxable Years Beginning Before January 1, 2013. (4-6-23) a. Net operating losses incurred in taxable years beginning on or after January 1, 2010.

Attaching a copy of the federal election to forego the federal net operating loss carryback to the Idaho income tax return for the taxable year of the loss does not constitute an election for Idaho purposes. (4-6-23) c. If the election is made on an amended or original return filed subsequent to the time allowed in Paragraph 201.05.a, it is considered untimely. (4-6-23) 06.

Documentation Required When Claiming a Net Operating Loss Deduction. A taxpayer claiming a net operating loss deduction for a taxable year must file with his return for that year a concise statement setting forth the amount of the net operating loss deduction claimed and all material and pertinent facts, including a detailed schedule showing the computation of the net operating loss and its carryback or carryover. (4-6-23) 08. Conversion of C Corporation to S Corporation. An S corporation may not carry over or back a net operating loss from a taxable year in which the corporation was a C corporation.

REDUCTION OF IDAHO TAX ATTRIBUTES AND BASIS WHEN INCOME FROM INDEBTEDNESS DISCHARGE IN BANKRUPTCY IS EXCLUDED FROM GROSS INCOME (RULE 210). Section 63-3022(c), Idaho Code 01. In General. Any taxpayer excluding from taxable income an amount resulting from the discharge of indebtedness in bankruptcy under Section 108(b) of the Internal Revenue Code, is to reduce Idaho net operating loss and basis in accordance with Section 346 of the Bankruptcy Code of the United States. If the discharge occurs outside of bankruptcy, the provisions of these rules do not apply. (4-6-23) 02. Order of Reduction. The reduction referred to in Subsection 210.01 is to be made to the following tax attributes in the following order: (4-6-23) a. Any net operating loss deduction, as defined in Rule 201 of these rules, is to be reduced by the amount of the indebtedness forgiven or discharged in bankruptcy except as follows: (4-6-23) i. A deduction with respect to the liability which is disallowed for any taxable period during or after the liability is forgiven or discharged. A deduction with respect to the liability includes a capital loss incurred on the disposition of a capital asset with respect to a liability that was incurred in connection with the acquisition of such asset. (4-6-23) ii. To the extent that the indebtedness forgiven or discharged consisted of items of a deductible nature that were not deducted by the taxpayer, or resulted in an expired net operating loss deduction or carryover that did not offset income for any taxable period and did not contribute to a net operating loss in or a net operating loss carryover to the taxable period during or after the indebtedness was discharged. (4-6-23) b. The basis in the taxpayer’s property or of property transferred to an entity required to use the taxpayer’s basis in whole or in part is to be reduced by the lesser of: (4-6-23) i. The amount of the forgiven or discharged indebtedness, minus the total amount of adjustments made under Subsection 210.02.a.; and (4-6-23) ii. The amount of the debtor’s total basis of assets before the discharge that exceeds the total preexisting liabilities still remaining after discharge of indebtedness. Basis may not be reduced below a level equal to the remaining undischarged liabilities. (4-6-23) 03. Exception to Basis Reduction. The basis reduction under Subsection 210.02.b. is not required if the taxpayer elects to treat the amount that would otherwise be applied in reduction of basis as taxable income of the taxable period in which the debt is forgiven or discharged. (4-6-23) 04. Discharge Not Treated as Discharged Indebtedness. The following provisions exclude from this rule indebtedness that is discharged and treat the debtor as if it had originally issued stock instead of debt. No reduction to the Idaho net operating loss or basis is required if one (1) or more of these provisions are satisfied. (4-6-23) a. The indebtedness did not consist of items of a deductible nature and is exchanged for an equity security, other than a limited partnership interest, issued by the debtor or is forgiven as a contribution to capital; or (4-6-23) b. The indebtedness consisted of items of a deductible nature, and the exchange of stock for debt has the same effect as a cash payment equal to the fair market value of the equity security that is issued by the debtor or, if the value of the security is less than the value of the debt, only part of the debt will be excluded. (4-6-23) 211. -- 249. (RESERVED) 250. NONRESIDENT AND PART-YEAR RESIDENT INDIVIDUALS -- INCOME SUBJECT TO IDAHO TAXATION (RULE 250). Sections 63-3026A(1) and (2), Idaho Code IDAHO ADMINISTRATIVE CODE IDAPA 35.01.01 Idaho State Tax Commission Income Tax Administrative Rules Section 251 Page 30 01. Receipt of Income -- Part-Year Residents. For purposes of determining if income is reportable to Idaho by a part-year resident, a cash basis taxpayer is considered to have earned or received income when it is actually or constructively received, except as provided in Subsections 250.04 and 250.05. (4-6-23) 02. Receipt of Intangible Income -- Part-Year Residents. (4-6-23) a. Interest and dividend income received from a source other than from a pass-through entity is considered to be earned or received by a part-year resident ratably during the taxable year. (4-6-23) b. If a transaction or activity gives rise to income that is reported in a subsequent year when the taxpayer is a part-year resident, the income must be treated as received ratably during that subsequent year. Subsection 250.04 also applies to income that is not received during the year by the taxpayer, but which must be reported in taxable income. (4-6-23) c. A part-year resident must report such income to Idaho in the proportion that the number of days during the taxable year that the individual qualified as an Idaho part-year resident bears to total days in the taxable year. (4-6-23) 03. Receipt of Pass-Through Items of Income and Losses -- Part-Year Residents. (4-6-23) a. For a part-year resident who is a shareholder in an S corporation, or a partner in a partnership, the income, gains, losses and other pass-through items from the S corporation or partnership are treated as received ratably during the taxpayer’s taxable year. If the taxpayer was not a shareholder or partner for the entire taxable year, the pass-through items are treated as received ratably during the portion of the taxable year the taxpayer was a shareholder of the S corporation or partner of the partnership. (4-6-23) b. For a part-year resident who is a beneficiary of an estate or trust, the income, gains, losses and other pass-through items from the estate or trust are treated as received ratably during the taxpayer’s taxable year. If the taxpayer was not a beneficiary of the estate or trust for the entire taxable year, the pass-through items are treated as received ratably during the portion of the taxable year the taxpayer was a beneficiary of the estate or trust. (4-6-23) c. A part-year resident must report such income to Idaho in the proportion that the number of days during the taxable year that the individual qualified as an Idaho part-year resident bears to total days in the taxable year. (4-6-23) 04. Examples. Available at Income Tax Rules Examples. (4-6-23) 251. NONRESIDENT AND PART-YEAR RESIDENT INDIVIDUALS -- COMPUTATION OF IDAHO TAXABLE INCOME (RULE 251). Section 63-3026A, Idaho Code For purposes of this rule, federal total income means gross income less certain deductions allowed under the Internal Revenue Code. It is the amount reported on the federal individual income tax return that is identified as total income. (4-6-23) 252. NONRESIDENT AND PART-YEAR RESIDENT INDIVIDUALS -- ADJUSTMENTS ALLOWED IN COMPUTING IDAHO ADJUSTED GROSS INCOME (RULE 252). Section 63-3026A(6), Idaho Code 01. In General. Deductions allowed in computing adjusted gross income will be allowed in computing Idaho adjusted gross income unless specifically denied by Idaho law. The amount allowed will be computed as provided in this rule. Each computation in this rule will include the amounts reported for the taxable year unless otherwise indicated. (4-6-23) 02. Deductions Directly Related to Specific Items of Income or Property. If the deduction directly relates to a specific item of income or property, the allowable deduction will be computed by dividing the amount of related income reported in Idaho income by the total of such related income reported in federal income. This IDAHO ADMINISTRATIVE CODE IDAPA 35.01.01 Idaho State Tax Commission Income Tax Administrative Rules Section 252 Page 31 percentage is multiplied by the deduction to arrive at the amount allowed as an Idaho deduction. If the deduction is related to property that did not generate income during the taxable year, the deduction will be allowed in the proportion that the property to which the deduction relates was located in Idaho. Examples of some of these deductions include the following: (4-6-23) a. Penalty on early withdrawal of savings. The allowable deduction will be computed by dividing the interest income of the time savings deposit subject to the penalty included in Idaho income by the total interest income of the time savings deposit included in federal income. This percentage is multiplied by the penalty deduction allowed for federal purposes. (4-6-23) b. Certain business expenses of reservists, performing artists, and fee-basis government officials. (4-6-23) c. Jury duty pay remitted to an employer. (4-6-23) d. Deductible expenses related to income from the rental of personal property engaged in for profit. (4-6-23) e. Reforestation amortization and expenses. The allowable deduction will be computed by dividing the income from the related timber operations included in Idaho income by the total income from the related timber operations. If there is no income from the related timber operations for the year of the deduction, the allowable deduction will be computed based on the percentage of property in Idaho to total property to which the reforestation amortization and expenses relate. This percentage is multiplied by the reforestation amortization and expense deduction allowed for federal income tax purposes. (4-6-23) f. Repayment of supplemental unemployment benefits. The allowable deduction will be computed by dividing the supplemental unemployment benefits included in Idaho income by the total supplemental unemployment benefits reported in federal income. This percentage is multiplied by the repayment deduction allowed for federal purposes. (4-6-23) g. Attorney fees and court costs. The allowable deduction will be computed by dividing the total income related to the attorney fees and court costs included in Idaho income by the total income from such actions. This percentage is multiplied by the attorney fees and court costs allowed for federal purposes. (4-6-23) 03. Deductions Allowed Based on Qualifying Types of Income. If the deduction is dependent on the taxpayer earning a qualifying type of income, the allowable deduction will be computed by dividing the amount of the qualifying income reported in Idaho income by the total of such qualifying income reported. This percentage is multiplied by the deduction to arrive at the amount allowed as an Idaho deduction. (4-6-23) a. Payments to an individual retirement account (IRA), federal health savings or medical savings account, or Section 501(c)(18)(D) retirement plan. The allowable deduction will be computed by dividing the taxpayer's Idaho compensation by the taxpayer's total compensation. This percentage is multiplied by the deduction allowed for federal purposes. For purposes of this rule, compensation means “compensation” as defined in Section 219(f)(1), Internal Revenue Code, and Treasury Regulation Section 1.219-1(c)(1). Idaho compensation is determined pursuant to Rule 270 of these rules. (4-6-23) b. Payments to a Keogh retirement plan, simplified employee pension (SEP) Plan, SIMPLE Plan, self- employment tax, and self-employment health insurance. The allowable deduction will be computed by dividing the taxpayer's self-employment income from Idaho sources by the taxpayer's total self-employment income. This percentage is multiplied by the self-employment deductions allowed for federal purposes. (4-6-23) 04. Other Deductions. Deductions that do not relate to specific items of income or to the earning of qualifying income will be allowed in the proportion that Idaho total income bears to federal total income. The federal net operating loss deduction is not included in either the federal total income or the Idaho total income for this calculation. Such deductions include the following: (4-6-23) IDAHO ADMINISTRATIVE CODE IDAPA 35.01.01 Idaho State Tax Commission Income Tax Administrative Rules Section 253 Page 32 a. Alimony payments. (4-6-23) b. Moving expenses. (4-6-23) c. Student loan interest payments. (4-6-23) d. Tuition and fees deduction. (4-6-23) 253. NONRESIDENT AND PART-YEAR RESIDENT INDIVIDUALS -- ADDITIONS REQUIRED IN COMPUTING IDAHO ADJUSTED INCOME. Section 63-3026A(6), Idaho Code. The following must be added to Idaho adjusted gross income in computing the Idaho adjusted income of nonresident and part-year resident individuals. (4-6-23) 01. Interest and Dividends Not Taxable Pursuant to the Internal Revenue Code. (4-6-23) a. Part-Year Residents. Interest and dividend income not taxable pursuant to the Internal Revenue Code that was received while residing in or domiciled in Idaho must be added. However, interest received from obligations of the state of Idaho or any political subdivision of Idaho is exempt from Idaho income tax and is not added. (4-6-23) b. Nonresidents. Interest and dividend income reportable from a pass-through entity that was transacting business in Idaho must be added to the extent the income was apportioned or allocated as Idaho income. (4-6-23) 02. Net Operating Loss Deduction. The amount of the net operating loss deduction included in Idaho adjusted gross income must be added. (4-6-23) 03. Capital Loss.

(4-6-23) 04. Lump Sum Distributions. Part-year residents must add the taxable amount of a lump sum distribution deducted in calculating taxable income received while residing in or domiciled in Idaho. This includes both the ordinary income portion and the amount eligible for the capital gain election. (4-6-23) 05. Idaho Medical Savings Account. An account holder must add the amount of any nonqualified withdrawal from an Idaho medical savings account if the withdrawal was not made for the purpose of paying eligible medical expenses. (4-6-23) 06. Idaho College Savings Program. (4-6-23) a. An account owner must add the amount of a nonqualified withdrawal from an Idaho college savings program, less the amount included in the account owner’s Idaho adjusted gross income. The addition is limited to contributions previously exempt from Idaho state income tax and earnings generated from the program as long as the earnings are not already included in federal adjusted gross income. Nonqualified withdrawal is defined in Section 33-5401, Idaho Code. (4-6-23) b. As provided in Section 63-3022(p), Idaho Code, an account owner must add the amount of a withdrawal from an Idaho college savings program that is transferred on or after July 1, 2007, to a qualified tuition program operated by a state other than Idaho. For taxable years beginning on or after January 1, 2008, the addback is limited to the total of the amounts contributed to the Idaho college savings program that were deducted on the account owner’s Idaho income tax returns for the year of the transfer and the immediately preceding taxable year. (4-6-23) 07. Special First-Year Depreciation Allowance. As provided by Section 63-3022O, Idaho Code, if a taxpayer claims the special first-year depreciation allowance on property acquired before 2008 or after 2009 pursuant to Section 168(k), Internal Revenue Code, the adjusted basis of that property and the depreciation deduction allowed for Idaho income tax purposes must be computed without regard to the special first-year depreciation allowance. An IDAHO ADMINISTRATIVE CODE IDAPA 35.01.01 Idaho State Tax Commission Income Tax Administrative Rules Section 254 Page 33 individual must add the amount of depreciation computed for federal income tax purposes that exceeds the amount of depreciation computed for Idaho income tax purposes. This addition does not apply to depreciation computed on property acquired after 2007 and before 2010. (4-6-23) 254. NONRESIDENT AND PART-YEAR RESIDENT INDIVIDUALS -- SUBTRACTIONS ALLOWED IN COMPUTING IDAHO ADJUSTED INCOME (RULE 254). Section 63-3026A(6), Idaho Code. The following are allowable subtractions in computing the Idaho adjusted income of nonresident and part-year resident individuals. (4-6-23) 01. Idaho Net Operating Loss. An Idaho net operating loss deduction described in Section 63-3021, Idaho Code, and allowed by Section 63-3022(c), Idaho Code, may be subtracted to the extent the loss was incurred while the taxpayer was residing in or domiciled in Idaho or to the extent the loss was from activity taking place in Idaho. A net operating loss incurred from an activity not taxable by Idaho may not be subtracted. (4-6-23) 02. State and Local Income Tax Refunds. State and local income tax refunds included in Idaho total income may be subtracted unless the refunds have already been subtracted pursuant to Section 63-3022(a), Idaho Code. (4-6-23) 03. Income Not Taxable by Idaho. As provided in Section 63-3022(f), Idaho Code, income that is exempt from Idaho income taxation by a law of the state of Idaho or of the United States may be subtracted if that income is included in Idaho total income and has not been previously subtracted. Income exempt from taxation by Idaho includes the following: (4-6-23) a. Interest income from obligations issued by the United States Government. Gain recognized from the sale of United States Government obligations is not exempt from Idaho tax and, therefore, may not be subtracted from taxable income. (4-6-23) b. Idaho lottery prizes exempt by Section 67-7439, Idaho Code. For prizes awarded on lottery tickets purchased in Idaho a subtraction is allowed for each lottery prize that is less than six hundred dollars ($600). If a prize equals or exceeds six hundred dollars ($600), no subtraction is allowed. The full amount of the prize is included in income. (4-6-23) c. Certain income earned by American Indians. An enrolled member of a federally recognized Indian tribe who lives on his tribe’s federally recognized Indian reservation is not taxable on income derived within that reservation. (4-6-23) d. Certain income earned by transportation employees covered by Title 49, Sections 11502, 14503 or 40116, United States Code. (4-6-23) e. Certain income from loss recoveries. See Section 63-3022R, Idaho Code. (4-6-23) 04. Military Pay. Qualified military pay included in Idaho total income earned for military service performed outside Idaho may be subtracted. Qualified military pay means all compensation paid by the United States for services performed while on active duty as a full-time member of the United States Armed Forces which full-time duty is or will be continuous and uninterrupted for one hundred twenty (120) consecutive days or more. A nonresident does not include his military pay in Idaho total income and, therefore, makes no adjustment. (4-6-23) 05. Social Security and Railroad Retirement Benefits. Social security benefits and benefits paid by the Railroad Retirement Board that are taxable pursuant to the Internal Revenue Code may be subtracted to the extent the benefits are included in Idaho total income. (4-6-23) 06. Household and Dependent Care Expenses. The allowable portion of household and dependent care expenses that meets the requirements of Section 63-3022D, Idaho Code, may be subtracted if incurred to enable the taxpayer to be gainfully employed in Idaho. To determine the allowable portion of household and dependent care expenses, a percentage is calculated by dividing Idaho earned income by total earned income. The qualified expenses are multiplied by the percentage. Earned income is defined in Section 32(c)(2), Internal Revenue Code. (4-6-23) IDAHO ADMINISTRATIVE CODE IDAPA 35.01.01 Idaho State Tax Commission Income Tax Administrative Rules Section 254 Page 34 07. Insulation and Alternative Energy Device Expenses. Expenses related to the installation of insulation or alternative energy devices that meet the requirements of Section 63-3022B or 63-3022C, Idaho Code, may be subtracted. (4-6-23) 08. Deduction for Dependents Sixty-Five or Older or with Developmental Disabilities. One thousand dollars ($1,000) may be subtracted for each person who meets the requirements of Section 63-3022E, Idaho Code. The deduction may be claimed for no more than three (3) qualifying dependents. If a dependent has not lived in the maintained household for the entire taxable year, the allowable deduction is eighty-three dollars ($83) for each month the dependent resided in the maintained household during the taxable year. For purposes of this rule, a fraction of a month exceeding fifteen (15) days is treated as a full month. (4-6-23) 09. Adoption Expenses. The allowable portion of adoption expenses that meets the requirements of Section 63-3022I, Idaho Code, may be subtracted. To determine the allowable portion, calculate a percentage by dividing Idaho total income by total income. The deduction allowable pursuant to Section 63-3022I, Idaho Code, is multiplied by the percentage. (4-6-23) 10. Capital Gains Deduction. The Idaho capital gains deduction allowed by Section 63-3022H, Idaho Code, may be subtracted. (4-6-23) 11. Idaho Medical Savings Account. (4-6-23) a. The qualifying amount of contributions to an Idaho medical savings account that meets the requirements of Section 63-3022K, Idaho Code, may be subtracted. (4-6-23) b.

(4-6-23) 13. Worker’s Compensation Insurance. As allowed by Section 63-3022(m), Idaho Code, a self- employed individual may subtract the premiums paid for worker’s compensation for coverage in Idaho to the extent not previously subtracted in computing Idaho taxable income. (4-6-23) 14. Idaho College Savings Program. The qualifying amount of contributions to a college savings program that meets the requirements of Section 63-3022(n), Idaho Code, may be subtracted. (4-6-23) 15. Retirement Benefits. As provided in Section 63-3022A, Idaho Code, a deduction from taxable income is allowed for certain retirement benefits. To determine the allowable portion of the deduction for certain retirement benefits, a percentage is calculated by dividing the qualified retirement benefits included in Idaho gross income by the qualified retirement benefits included in federal gross income. The deduction allowable pursuant to Section 63-3022A, Idaho Code, is multiplied by the percentage. (4-6-23) 16. Health Insurance Costs. The allowable portion of the amounts paid by the taxpayer during the taxable year for insurance that constitutes medical care as defined in Section 63-3022P, Idaho Code, for the taxpayer, spouse or dependents of the taxpayer not otherwise deducted or accounted for by the taxpayer for Idaho income tax purposes may be subtracted. To determine the allowable portion of the amounts paid for medical care insurance, a percentage is calculated by dividing Idaho total income by total income. The deduction allowable pursuant to Section 63-3022P, Idaho Code, is multiplied by the percentage. (4-6-23) 17. Long-Term Care Insurance. As provided in Section 63-3022Q, Idaho Code, a deduction from taxable income is allowed for the allowable portion of premiums paid during the taxable year for qualifying long- term care insurance for the benefit of the taxpayer, a dependent of the taxpayer or an employee of the taxpayer that have not otherwise been deducted or accounted for by the taxpayer for Idaho income tax purposes. To determine the allowable portion, a percentage is calculated by dividing Idaho total income by total income. The deduction allowable pursuant to Section 63-3022Q, Idaho Code, is multiplied by the percentage. (4-6-23) IDAHO ADMINISTRATIVE CODE IDAPA 35.01.01 Idaho State Tax Commission Income Tax Administrative Rules Section 255 Page 35 18. Special First-Year Depreciation Allowance. As provided by Section 63-3022O, Idaho Code, if a taxpayer claims the special first-year depreciation allowance on property acquired before 2008 or after 2009 pursuant to Section 168(k), Internal Revenue Code, the adjusted basis of that property and the depreciation deduction allowed for Idaho income tax purposes must be computed without regard to the special first-year depreciation allowance. The adjustments required by this subsection do not apply to property acquired after 2007 and before 2010. (4-6-23) a. Depreciation. The amount of depreciation computed for Idaho income tax purposes that exceeds the amount of depreciation computed for federal income tax purposes may be subtracted. (4-6-23) b. Gains and losses. During the recovery period, the adjusted basis of depreciable property computed for federal income tax purposes will be less than the adjusted basis for Idaho income tax purposes as a result of claiming the special first-year depreciation allowance. If a loss qualifies as a capital loss for federal income tax purposes, the federal capital loss limitations and carryback and carryover provisions apply in computing the Idaho capital loss allowed. (4-6-23) i. If a sale or exchange of property results in a gain for both federal and Idaho income tax purposes, a subtraction is allowed for the difference between the federal and Idaho gains computed prior to any applicable Idaho capital gains deduction. (4-6-23) ii. If a sale or exchange of property results in a gain for federal income tax purposes and an ordinary loss for Idaho income tax purposes, the federal gain and the Idaho loss must be added together and the total may be subtracted. For example, if a taxpayer has a federal gain of five thousand dollars ($5,000) and an Idaho loss of four thousand dollars ($4,000), the amount subtracted would be nine thousand dollars ($9,000). (4-6-23) iii. If a sale or exchange of property results in an ordinary loss for both federal and Idaho income tax purposes, the difference between the federal and Idaho losses may be subtracted. For example, if a taxpayer has a federal loss of three hundred dollars ($300) and an Idaho loss of five hundred dollars ($500), the amount subtracted would be two hundred dollars ($200). (4-6-23) iv. If a sale or exchange of property results in a capital loss for both federal and Idaho income tax purposes, apply the capital loss limitations and subtract the difference between the federal and Idaho deductible capital losses. For example, if a taxpayer has a federal capital loss of six thousand dollars ($6,000) and an Idaho capital loss of eight thousand dollars ($8,000), both the federal and Idaho capital losses are limited to a deductible capital loss of three thousand dollars ($3,000). In this case, no subtraction is required for the year of the sale. In the next year, assume the taxpayer had a capital gain for both federal and Idaho purposes of two thousand dollars ($2,000). The capital loss carryovers added to the capital gain results in a federal deductible capital loss of one thousand dollars ($1,000) and an Idaho deductible capital loss of three thousand dollars ($3,000). The taxpayer would subtract the difference between the federal and Idaho deductible losses or two thousand dollars ($2,000) in computing Idaho taxable income. (4-6-23) 255.

(4-6-23) 02. Proration. For taxable years beginning in or after 2007, the proration is calculated by dividing Idaho adjusted income by total adjusted income. Calculate four (4) digits to the right of the decimal point. If the fifth digit is five (5) or greater, the fourth digit is rounded to the next higher number ($10,000 / $15,000 = .66666 = .6667 = 66.67%). If the fifth digit is less than five (5), the fourth digit remains unchanged and any digits remaining to its right are dropped ($10/000 / $30,000 = .33333 = .3333 = 33.33%).
