311 | 311 | | in which the adjustments under AS 43.22.030 will be allocated between the estate's or 29 |

494 | 494 | | from or connected with a source in the state. (a) The department shall adopt 5 |
---|
495 | 495 | | regulations governing whether income or a gain, loss, or deduction of a nonresident 6 |
---|
496 | 496 | | estate or nonresident trust is included in taxable income derived from or connected 7 |
---|
497 | 497 | | with a source in the state. Regulations adopted under this subsection must be 8 |

499 | 499 | | (b) A nonresident beneficiary shall include in taxable income derived from or 10 |

500 | 500 | | connected with a source in the state a distribution from an estate or trust as if the 11 |
---|
501 | 501 | | nonresident beneficiary earned or incurred the income or a gain, loss, or deduction 12 |
---|
502 | 502 | | attributable to the distribution directly from the source. For purposes of this 13 |
---|
503 | 503 | | subsection, the department may establish one or more methods for a nonresident 14 |
---|
504 | 504 | | beneficiary to determine whether income or a gain, loss, or deduction is attributable to 15 |
---|
505 | 505 | | a distribution. The department shall consistently apply a method from year to year and 16 |
---|
506 | 506 | | apply the same method to other nonresident beneficiaries of the same trust or estate. 17 |
---|
507 | 507 | | Nothing in this subsection requires the department to give effect to a provision of an 18 |

---|
532 | 532 | | substantially all of its services for or on behalf of another corporation, partnership, or 8 |

676 | 676 | | The department shall apply the amount held under this section to tax owed in the 14 |

681 | 681 | | regulations and forms to implement and interpret this chapter, including regulations 19 |
---|
682 | 682 | | and forms for the electronic filing and payment of tax due under this chapter. Federal 20 |

683 | 683 | | regulations issued under the Internal Revenue Code shall be considered persuasive 21 |
---|
684 | 684 | | authority in interpreting any provision of the Internal Revenue Code on which the tax 22 |
---|
685 | 685 | | imposed by this chapter relies, whether or not a federal regulation has been 23 |

686 | 686 | | specifically incorporated into a department regulation, unless the federal regulation 24 |

694 | 694 | | review or audit of a taxpayer's return, may determine whether there is sufficient 31 33-LS0699\A |

---|
698 | 698 | | documentation or whether a transaction or payment meets the requirements of this 1 |
---|
699 | 699 | | subsection. If the department determines that the documentation, transaction, or 2 |
---|
700 | 700 | | payment fails to meet the requirements of this subsection, the department may adjust 3 |
---|
701 | 701 | | the amount of a payment or transaction, disregard the payment or transaction, or make 4 |
---|
702 | 702 | | another adjustment necessary for determining the tax under this chapter. If a payment 5 |
---|
703 | 703 | | in an amount greater than $500,000 is made or required to be made from one person to 6 |
---|
704 | 704 | | a related person, the related persons shall submit documentation substantiating that the 7 |

708 | 708 | | and real property. 11 |
---|
709 | 709 | | (c) A tax deficiency assessed by the department under this section is assumed 12 |
---|
710 | 710 | | to be correct. A taxpayer has the burden of proving that the tax deficiency is 13 |
---|
711 | 711 | | erroneous. 14 |
---|
712 | 712 | | (d) The department shall adjust the amount of the exemption under 15 |
---|
713 | 713 | | AS 43.22.030(b) annually for inflation. Adjustments must be consistent with inflation 16 |
---|
714 | 714 | | adjustments made by the Internal Revenue Service to the federal individual income tax 17 |
---|
715 | 715 | | standard deduction. The department shall round amounts under this subsection to the 18 |
