NOTICE OF PUBLIC HEARING ON PROPOSED AMENDMENT

 

TO: All Concerned Persons

 

1. On November 2, 2017, at 2:30 p.m., the Department of Revenue will hold a public hearing in the Third Floor Reception Conference Room of the Sam W. Mitchell Building, located at 125 North Roberts, Helena, Montana, to consider the proposed amendment of the above-stated rules. The hearing room is most readily accessed by entering through the east doors of the building facing Sanders Street.

 

2. The Department of Revenue will make reasonable accommodations for persons with disabilities who wish to participate in this public hearing or need an alternative accessible format of this notice. If you require an accommodation, contact the department no later than 5 p.m. on October 23, 2017, to advise us of the nature of the accommodation you need. Please contact Laurie Logan, Department of Revenue, Director's Office, P.O. Box 7701, Helena, Montana 59604-7701; telephone (406) 444-7905; fax (406) 444-3696; or e-mail lalogan@mt.gov.

 

3. GENERAL STATEMENT OF REASONABLE NECESSITY. The department uses data from the guides and valuation manuals listed in its rules to determine the trended depreciation schedules published in those rules. Personal property is valued annually and because the trend tables used to value personal property change from year to year, the department must provide taxpayers with notice of those changes and does so through the rulemaking process. The annual update to the trended depreciation schedules provides taxpayers with the current depreciation percentage for each of the personal property classifications for the upcoming year. The updates also clearly identify for the taxpayer how the department values and depreciates property over time.

ARM 42.21.157 requires the department to update the depreciation schedules of tangible personal property on an annual basis. The annual changes affect all businesses with taxable tangible personal property. By annually updating the depreciation schedules the department accounts for the impact an additional year of wear and tear has on the value of tangible personal property. Small businesses would see a negative impact if these tables were not updated. Therefore, it is reasonably necessary to update the trend tables to reflect any changes for the upcoming year.

This general statement of reasonable necessity applies to all of the following rules. Supplemental statements of reasonable necessity have been provided for ARM 42.21.123, to add implementing citations and incorporate changes enacted by House Bill 115, L. 2017; for ARM 42.21.131, to add an implementing citation; and for ARM 42.21.160 and 42.22.1311, for format corrections.

 

4. The rules as proposed to be amended provide as follows, deleted matter interlined, new matter underlined:

 

42.21.113 LEASED AND RENTAL EQUIPMENT  (1) Leased or rental equipment that is leased or rented on an hourly, daily, weekly, semimonthly, or monthly basis, but is not exempt under 15-6-202 or 15-6-219, MCA, will be valued in the following manner:

REASON: In addition to the general statement of reasonable necessity provided at the beginning of this notice pertaining to the annual data updates to the rules in this notice, the department further proposes amending ARM 42.21.123 to incorporate a change enacted by House Bill 115, L. 2017 and to add two implementing citations for the rule.

House Bill 115 replaced the requirement that the department use a specifically named publication to value farm machinery with language that allows the department to seek out and use other published valuation guides that meet the criteria in the statute instead. House Bill 115 further requires the department to adopt the selected valuation guide(s) by rule. Therefore, the department proposes updating (2) to strike the former guide from the rule and add language to adopt, by reference, the same online valuation source the department has been using to value heavy equipment for many years. The selected publication now also offers farm machinery values and meets the requirements in 15-8-111, MCA. Using a single valuation source for both heavy equipment and farm machinery offers the department an opportunity to cut annual costs and improve efficiency.

This proposed change may positively or negatively affect taxpayers depending on the model year.  For example, farm machinery and equipment new two years ago would have had a trended percentage wholesale of 75 percent using the current valuation guide but has a trended percentage wholesale of 50 percent using the proposed valuation guide. On the other hand, farm machinery and equipment older than 20 years would have had a trended percentage wholesale of 20 percent using the current valuation guide but has a trended percentage wholesale of 31 percent using the proposed valuation guide. It is estimated up to 4,600 property owners have the possibility of being effected. Further, based on estimates from the property assessment division of the department of revenue, the statewide change will decrease taxable value by $120,000. Using the average TY 2016 mill values for agricultural equipment, this would imply a statewide decrease in taxes paid of approximately $60,000.

 

42.21.131 HEAVY EQUIPMENT (1) through (4) remain the same.

(5) The trended depreciation schedule referred to in (2), (3), and (4) is listed below and shall be used for tax year 2017 2018. The values derived through the use of these percentages approximate the "quick sale" values provided in the guide listed in (1).
