Fiscal Analysis
The bill would amend Chapter 171 of the Tax Code, regarding the franchise tax, by temporarily increasing the amount of total revenue at which a taxable entity would owe no tax. The amount in current law is $300,000. This bill would raise the amount to $1 million for tax reports due in 2010 and 2011. For tax reports due on or after January 1, 2012, the bill would return the amount to the current law amount. The bill would take effect January 1, 2010, and apply to reports due on or after that date.
