The bill would amend Section 151.327(a)(2) to add a paintbrush used for artwork, watercolors, and acrylic, tempera, and oil paints to the items eligible for exemption. The bill would take effect immediately if it receives the requisite two-thirds votes in each house, otherwise it would take effect September 1, 2013. Methodology Census Bureau data, school art supply price data, Texas Education Agency data on enrollment in art classes, and Comptroller tax files data was used to develop an estimate of school art supply purchases that would occur within the annual August tax holiday, and the state sales tax rate applied to estimate the revenue impact. Effects on units of local government were estimated proportionally. If the bill were to receive immediate effect, the additional items would be eligible for exemption during the August 2013 tax holiday. This would principally impact fiscal 2014 revenues, but there would be some effect in fiscal 2013 due to estimated prepayments of tax.  If the bill were to take effect September 1, 2013 the first affected tax holiday would be that of August 2014.   Local Government Impact There would be a proportional loss of sales and use tax revenue to local taxing jurisdictions.

Fiscal Analysis

The bill would amend Chapter 151, Tax Code to add certain school art supplies to the definition of school supplies eligible for exemption during a limited period. The bill would amend Section 151.327(a)(2) to add a paintbrush used for artwork, watercolors, and acrylic, tempera, and oil paints to the items eligible for exemption. The bill would take effect immediately if it receives the requisite two-thirds votes in each house, otherwise it would take effect September 1, 2013.

Methodology

Census Bureau data, school art supply price data, Texas Education Agency data on enrollment in art classes, and Comptroller tax files data was used to develop an estimate of school art supply purchases that would occur within the annual August tax holiday, and the state sales tax rate applied to estimate the revenue impact. Effects on units of local government were estimated proportionally. If the bill were to receive immediate effect, the additional items would be eligible for exemption during the August 2013 tax holiday. This would principally impact fiscal 2014 revenues, but there would be some effect in fiscal 2013 due to estimated prepayments of tax.  If the bill were to take effect September 1, 2013 the first affected tax holiday would be that of August 2014.  

Local Government Impact

There would be a proportional loss of sales and use tax revenue to local taxing jurisdictions.
