Also included in the selling price is any amount 16 received by the lessor from the lessee for the leased vehicle 17 that is not calculated at the time the lease is executed, 18 including, but not limited to, excess mileage charges and 19 charges for excess wear and tear. For sales that occur in 20 Illinois, with respect to any amount received by the lessor 21 from the lessee for the leased vehicle that is not calculated 22 at the time the lease is executed, the lessor who purchased the 23 motor vehicle does not incur the tax imposed by the Use Tax Act 24 on those amounts, and the retailer who makes the retail sale of 25 the motor vehicle to the lessor is not required to collect the 26 tax imposed by this Act or to pay the tax imposed by the SB1841 - 6 - LRB103 25906 HLH 52257 b SB1841- 7 -LRB103 25906 HLH 52257 b SB1841 - 7 - LRB103 25906 HLH 52257 b SB1841 - 7 - LRB103 25906 HLH 52257 b 1 Retailers' Occupation Tax Act on those amounts. However, the 2 lessor who purchased the motor vehicle assumes the liability 3 for reporting and paying the tax on those amounts directly to 4 the Department in the same form (Illinois Retailers' 5 Occupation Tax, and local retailers' occupation taxes, if 6 applicable) in which the retailer would have reported and paid 7 such tax if the retailer had accounted for the tax to the 8 Department. For amounts received by the lessor from the lessee 9 that are not calculated at the time the lease is executed, the 10 lessor must file the return and pay the tax to the Department 11 by the due date otherwise required by this Act for returns 12 other than transaction returns. If the retailer is entitled 13 under this Act to a discount for collecting and remitting the 14 tax imposed under this Act to the Department with respect to 15 the sale of the motor vehicle to the lessor, then the right to 16 the discount provided in this Act shall be transferred to the 17 lessor with respect to the tax paid by the lessor for any 18 amount received by the lessor from the lessee for the leased 19 vehicle that is not calculated at the time the lease is 20 executed; provided that the discount is only allowed if the 21 return is timely filed and for amounts timely paid. The 22 "selling price" of a motor vehicle that is sold on or after 23 January 1, 2015 for the purpose of leasing for a defined period 24 of longer than one year shall not be reduced by the value of or 25 credit given for traded-in tangible personal property owned by 26 the lessor, nor shall it be reduced by the value of or credit SB1841 - 7 - LRB103 25906 HLH 52257 b SB1841- 8 -LRB103 25906 HLH 52257 b SB1841 - 8 - LRB103 25906 HLH 52257 b SB1841 - 8 - LRB103 25906 HLH 52257 b 1 given for traded-in tangible personal property owned by the 2 lessee, regardless of whether the trade-in value thereof is 3 assigned by the lessee to the lessor. In the case of a motor 4 vehicle that is sold for the purpose of leasing for a defined 5 period of longer than one year, the sale occurs at the time of 6 the delivery of the vehicle, regardless of the due date of any 7 lease payments. A lessor who incurs a Retailers' Occupation 8 Tax liability on the sale of a motor vehicle coming off lease 9 may not take a credit against that liability for the Use Tax 10 the lessor paid upon the purchase of the motor vehicle (or for 11 any tax the lessor paid with respect to any amount received by 12 the lessor from the lessee for the leased vehicle that was not 13 calculated at the time the lease was executed) if the selling 14 price of the motor vehicle at the time of purchase was 15 calculated using the definition of "selling price" as defined 16 in this paragraph. Notwithstanding any other provision of this 17 Act to the contrary, lessors shall file all returns and make 18 all payments required under this paragraph to the Department 19 by electronic means in the manner and form as required by the 20 Department. This paragraph does not apply to leases of motor 21 vehicles for which, at the time the lease is entered into, the 22 term of the lease is not a defined period, including leases 23 with a defined initial period with the option to continue the 24 lease on a month-to-month or other basis beyond the initial 25 defined period. 26 The phrase "like kind and character" shall be liberally SB1841 - 8 - LRB103 25906 HLH 52257 b SB1841- 9 -LRB103 25906 HLH 52257 b SB1841 - 9 - LRB103 25906 HLH 52257 b SB1841 - 9 - LRB103 25906 HLH 52257 b 1 construed (including but not limited to any form of motor 2 vehicle for any form of motor vehicle, or any kind of farm or 3 agricultural implement for any other kind of farm or 4 agricultural implement), while not including a kind of item 5 which, if sold at retail by that retailer, would be exempt from 6 retailers' occupation tax and use tax as an isolated or 7 occasional sale. 8 "Department" means the Department of Revenue. 9 "Person" means any natural individual, firm, partnership, 10 association, joint stock company, joint adventure, public or 11 private corporation, limited liability company, or a receiver, 12 executor, trustee, guardian or other representative appointed 13 by order of any court. 14 "Retailer" means and includes every person engaged in the 15 business of making sales at retail as defined in this Section. 16 A person who holds himself or herself out as being engaged 17 (or who habitually engages) in selling tangible personal 18 property at retail is a retailer hereunder with respect to 19 such sales (and not primarily in a service occupation) 20 notwithstanding the fact that such person designs and produces 21 such tangible personal property on special order for the 22 purchaser and in such a way as to render the property of value 23 only to such purchaser, if such tangible personal property so 24 produced on special order serves substantially the same 25 function as stock or standard items of tangible personal 26 property that are sold at retail.

The selling of school books and school supplies by 14 schools at retail to students is not "primarily for the 15 purposes of" the school which does such selling. This 16 paragraph does not apply to nor subject to taxation occasional 17 dinners, social or similar activities of a person organized 18 and operated exclusively for charitable, religious or 19 educational purposes, whether or not such activities are open 20 to the public. 21 A person who is the recipient of a grant or contract under 22 Title VII of the Older Americans Act of 1965 (P.L. 92-258) and 23 serves meals to participants in the federal Nutrition Program 24 for the Elderly in return for contributions established in 25 amount by the individual participant pursuant to a schedule of 26 suggested fees as provided for in the federal Act is not a SB1841 - 10 - LRB103 25906 HLH 52257 b SB1841- 11 -LRB103 25906 HLH 52257 b SB1841 - 11 - LRB103 25906 HLH 52257 b SB1841 - 11 - LRB103 25906 HLH 52257 b 1 retailer under this Act with respect to such transactions. 2 Persons who engage in the business of transferring 3 tangible personal property upon the redemption of trading 4 stamps are retailers hereunder when engaged in such business. 5 The isolated or occasional sale of tangible personal 6 property at retail by a person who does not hold himself out as 7 being engaged (or who does not habitually engage) in selling 8 such tangible personal property at retail or a sale through a 9 bulk vending machine does not make such person a retailer 10 hereunder. However, any person who is engaged in a business 11 which is not subject to the tax imposed by the Retailers' 12 Occupation Tax Act because of involving the sale of or a 13 contract to sell real estate or a construction contract to 14 improve real estate, but who, in the course of conducting such 15 business, transfers tangible personal property to users or 16 consumers in the finished form in which it was purchased, and 17 which does not become real estate, under any provision of a 18 construction contract or real estate sale or real estate sales 19 agreement entered into with some other person arising out of 20 or because of such nontaxable business, is a retailer to the 21 extent of the value of the tangible personal property so 22 transferred. If, in such transaction, a separate charge is 23 made for the tangible personal property so transferred, the 24 value of such property, for the purposes of this Act, is the 25 amount so separately charged, but not less than the cost of 26 such property to the transferor; if no separate charge is SB1841 - 11 - LRB103 25906 HLH 52257 b SB1841- 12 -LRB103 25906 HLH 52257 b SB1841 - 12 - LRB103 25906 HLH 52257 b SB1841 - 12 - LRB103 25906 HLH 52257 b 1 made, the value of such property, for the purposes of this Act, 2 is the cost to the transferor of such tangible personal 3 property. 4 "Retailer maintaining a place of business in this State", 5 or any like term, means and includes any of the following 6 retailers: 7 (1) A retailer having or maintaining within this 8 State, directly or by a subsidiary, an office, 9 distribution house, sales house, warehouse or other place 10 of business, or any agent or other representative 11 operating within this State under the authority of the 12 retailer or its subsidiary, irrespective of whether such 13 place of business or agent or other representative is 14 located here permanently or temporarily, or whether such 15 retailer or subsidiary is licensed to do business in this 16 State. However, the ownership of property that is located 17 at the premises of a printer with which the retailer has 18 contracted for printing and that consists of the final 19 printed product, property that becomes a part of the final 20 printed product, or copy from which the printed product is 21 produced shall not result in the retailer being deemed to 22 have or maintain an office, distribution house, sales 23 house, warehouse, or other place of business within this 24 State. 25 (1.1) A retailer having a contract with a person 26 located in this State under which the person, for a SB1841 - 12 - LRB103 25906 HLH 52257 b SB1841- 13 -LRB103 25906 HLH 52257 b SB1841 - 13 - LRB103 25906 HLH 52257 b SB1841 - 13 - LRB103 25906 HLH 52257 b 1 commission or other consideration based upon the sale of 2 tangible personal property by the retailer, directly or 3 indirectly refers potential customers to the retailer by 4 providing to the potential customers a promotional code or 5 other mechanism that allows the retailer to track 6 purchases referred by such persons.
