Enactment of this legislation likely will not result in direct, measurable costs for local governments.

Individuals & BusinessesUCA36-12-13(2)(c)

Enactment of this legislation could result in more or less income tax liability for certain corporations with net operating losses (NOLs). Corporations that incurred NOLs in tax years 2008 to 2017 that aren''t able to fully recover the NOLs during the 15-year carryforward period may see a reduction in tax liability beginning in the year after the 15-year carryforward period until the losses are fully exhausted. Additionally, limiting 2008 to 2017 NOL carryforwards to 80% of Utah taxable income would not change the overall amount of losses that a taxpayer is allowed to carry forward but could shift the timing of when the losses are utilized. This could result in an increase in tax liability in earlier years that would be offset by a reduction in tax liability in later years. The aggregate impact is unknown.

Regulatory ImpactUCA36-12-13(2)(d)
Enactment of this legislation likely will not change the regulatory burden for Utah residents or businesses.
