Section 17. Services Which Qualify As Capital Expenditures

Services performed in New Mexico which are capitalized under the provisions of the Internal Revenue Code are ”used” for purposes of Subsection B of Section 7-9-7 NMSA 1978. Nontaxable transaction certificates may not be issued for such transactions. If a taxpayer acquires these services through the issuance of a nontaxable transaction certificate, the compensating tax is due on the value of the services, and the taxpayer's right to issue nontaxable transaction certificates will be jeopardized under the provisions of Section 7-9-44 NMSA 1978.
