Dissolution or Withdrawal
Corporations that cease to do business in Utah must either dissolve or withdraw the corporation. Corporations incorporated in Utah must file Articles of Dissolution with the Department of Commerce. In addition, Utah corporations should obtain a Certificate of Tax Clearance from the Tax Commission prior to dissolution. Corporations incorporated outside of Utah (foreign corporations) MUST obtain a Certificate of Tax Clearance from the Tax Commission before withdrawing from Utah. Foreign corporations must file an Application for Withdrawal with the Department of Commerce. To request a Certificate of Tax Clearance, complete form TC-2001 and submit it to the attention of the Customer Service Call Unit at the Tax Commission address above. The form can be found on our website at tax.utah.gov/forms. To close related tax accounts (sales, withholding, etc.), send a letter with the account number(s) and the last date of business to the attention of Master File Maintenance at the Tax Commission address above.

Electronic Filing for Corporation Returns
Utah corporation returns for taxable years beginning in 2006 may be filed electronically under a new joint program between the Internal Revenue Service and the Utah State Tax Commission, and called the Fed/State 1120 Program. The program is similar to the federal/state individual electronic filing program in which both federal and state information is submitted at the same time. The IRS extracts its federal data and forwards the state data to the Tax Commission. No papers are required to be mailed to the agencies when filing electronically. Initially, both C corporations and S corporations may file electronically. Other corporation returns will be added in the future. Many software vendors are offering electronic corporation return filing. Check with your software provider to see if they support this new program. To learn more about filing your corporation return electronically, go to tax.utah.gov/corporate/eleccorp.html.

Rounding Off to Whole-dollar Amounts
Round off cents to the nearest whole dollar. Round down if cents are under 50 cents; round up if cents are 50 cents and above. Do not enter cents anywhere on the return.

Corporation Identification Numbers
The Utah State Tax Commission uses the Federal Employer Identification Number (EIN) as the corporation's taxpayer identification number with the state. The Utah Department of Commerce also issues a registration number upon incorporation or qualification in Utah. Enter both the EIN and Utah Incorporation/Qualification number in the fields provided. These numbers are used for proper identification of the corporate tax return and any correspondence.

Liability for Filing and Paying Returns
Tax Forms
The Tax Commission does not mail returns for filing corporate taxes to corporations registered with the state. If the corporation does not use software that provides the forms, you may obtain Utah forms by downloading copies from the Tax Commission website at tax.utah.gov/forms or by calling the Forms Hotline at (801) 297-6700 or 1-800-662-4335, ext. 6700. NOTE: Review Supporting Federal Information later in these General Instructions to identify what federal information is required with the Utah return.

Corporation Changes
Corporation changes (e.g., name change, physical and/or mailing address changes, merger or ceasing to do business in Utah) must be reported in writing to both:

Page 1

Franchise Tax
Every C corporation incorporated in Utah (domestic), qualified in Utah (foreign), or doing business in Utah, whether qualified or not, must file a corporate franchise tax return. C corporation returns are filed on form TC-20. There is a minimum tax (privilege tax) of $100 on every corporation that files form TC-20, regardless of whether or not the corporation exercises its right to do business.

Filing Extension
Corporations are automatically allowed an extension of up to six months to file a return without filing an extension form. This is an extension of time to file the return NOT an extension of time to pay taxes. To avoid penalty and interest, the prepayment requirements must be met on or before the original return due date and all returns must be filed within the six-month extension period.

S Corporation
Every S corporation (as defined in IRC Section 1361(a)) that has filed a proper and timely election under IRC Section 1362(a) must file form TC-20S, so long as the federal election remains in effect. The minimum tax does not apply to S corporations.

Penalties
Utah law provides for uniform tax penalties for failure to file tax returns, failure to pay tax due, and failure to file information returns or supporting schedules. The penalty for failure to file a tax due return by the due date is the greater of $20 or 10 percent of the unpaid tax. The penalty for failure to pay tax due as reported on a timely filed return, or within 30 days of a notice of deficiency, is $20 or 10 percent of the tax due, whichever is greater. If a tax balance is still unpaid 90 days after the due date on a late filed return, a second penalty of $20 or 10 percent of the tax, whichever is greater, will be added for failure to pay timely. The penalty for underpayment of the extension prepayment is 2 percent per month of the unpaid tax during the extension period. If the return is not filed by the extension due date, failure to file and failure to pay penalties will apply as if the extension had not been granted. The penalty for failure to file an information return or complete supporting schedule is $50 for each return or schedule up to a maximum of $1,000. The penalty for each underpayment of required estimated tax or required quarterly installment is determined by applying the Utah interest rate(s) in effect for the period of the underpayment, plus four percentage points, to the amount of the underpayment for the period of the underpayment. For a list of additional penalties that may be imposed, refer to UC §59-1-401 and Pub 58.

Income Tax
The only corporations required to file under the income tax provisions are those that derive income from Utah sources, but are not qualified to do business in Utah and have no regular and established place of business in Utah, either owned or rented, and do not maintain an inventory or have employees located at a place of business in Utah. For example, a foreign corporation with goods maintained in a public warehouse in Utah, or a trucking company operated in or through Utah by a foreign corporation not qualified to do business in Utah, is subject to the income tax rather than franchise tax. Corporate income tax filers use form TC-20. A $100 minimum tax applies to the corporate income tax.

Taxable Year
The taxable year for Utah corporation franchise or income tax purposes must match the taxable year used for federal income tax purposes. When the taxable year changes for federal purposes, the taxable year must be adjusted accordingly for Utah corporation franchise or income tax purposes. Refer to Filing Return When Period Changed below. If the taxable year is not a calendar year, enter the beginning and ending dates of the taxable year at the top of form TC-20S where indicated.

Filing Return When Period Changed
When changes are made to the taxable year, as indicated under Taxable Year above, a short-period return is required. The short-period return must cover the period of less than 12 months between the prior taxable year-end and the new taxable year. The tax rates as provided in UC §59-7-104 and §59-7-201 apply to short period returns.

Interest

(in addition to penalties due)

Interest will be assessed at the rate prescribed by law from the original due date until any outstanding liability is paid in full. The interest rate for most taxes and fees administered by the Tax Commission for the 2007 calendar year is 7 percent. Pub 58, which contains applicable interest rates, is available on the Internet at tax.utah.gov/forms or by calling or writing the Tax Commission.

Where to File
Send the completed return and any payment to: Utah State Tax Commission 210 N 1950 W Salt Lake City, UT 84134-0300

Due Date
A return must be filed on or before the 15th day of the fourth month following the close of the taxable year. If the due date falls on a Saturday, Sunday or legal holiday, the due date becomes the next business day.

Suspension for Failure to Pay Tax Due
Utah law provides for suspension of a corporation's right to do business in Utah if it fails to pay taxes due before 5:00 p.m. on the last day of the 11th month after the due date.

Instructions for Schedule H ­ Nonbusiness Income Schedule
Determine nonbusiness income allocated to Utah and outside Utah by completing this schedule. All income that arises from the conduct of the trade or business operations of a corporation is business income. Nonbusiness income means all income other than business income and will be narrowly construed. Intangible income must be properly classified and based upon factual evidence. The burden of proof is on the corporation to justify the manner in which the income is claimed on the return. Interest income is business income where the intangible with respect to which the interest was received arises out of or was created in the regular course of the taxpayer's trade or business operations. (Tax Commission Rule R865-6F-8(A)(3)(c)) Dividends are business income where the stock, with respect to which the dividends are received, arises out of or was acquired in the regular course of the taxpayer's trade or business operations. Because of the regularity with which most corporate taxpayers engage in investment activities, income arising from the ownership, sale or other disposition of investments is presumptively business income. (Tax Commission Rule R865-6F-8(A)(3)(d)) Gain or loss from the sale, exchange or other disposition of real or tangible or intangible personal property constitutes business income if the property, while owned by the taxpayer, was used in the taxpayer's trade or business. (Tax Commission Rule R865-6F-8(A)(3)(b)) Rental income from real and tangible property is business income if the property, with respect to which the rental income was received, is used in the taxpayer's trade or business or includable in the property factor. (Tax Commission Rule R865-6F-8(A)(3)(a)) If the corporation is claiming only Utah nonbusiness income, lines 1a through 13 must be completed. If the corporation is claiming only non-Utah nonbusiness income, lines 14a through 26 must be completed. If the corporation is claiming both Utah and non-Utah nonbusiness income, lines 1a through 26 must be completed. Use additional pages, if necessary, to provide complete information, including a description of the business purpose for making the investment, the transactions creating the non-business income, and the use of revenues generated by the non-business investment.

Instructions for Schedule J ­ Apportionment Schedule
Determine the apportionment fraction (decimal) by completing this schedule. The factors express a ratio for tangible property in Utah, for wages and salaries in Utah, and for sales in Utah. These factors are added together and divided by the number of factors present (typically 3) to arrive at the Utah apportionment fraction calculated to six decimals. This fraction is to be applied to the apportionable income (or loss) on Schedule A to arrive at the amount of income (or loss) apportioned to Utah. In cases where one or more of the factors is omitted due to peculiar aspects of the business operations, divide by the number of factors present. For taxable years beginning after 2005, an election may be made to double weight the sales factor in the apportionment calculation. The election, once made, is irrevocable and must be used for five taxable years. The election is made by entering an "X" in the box on line 9 and completing lines 10 through 12 on Schedule J. Income or loss from partnership or joint venture interests must be included in income and apportioned to Utah through application of the three-factor formula consisting of property, payroll and sales. For apportionment purposes, the portion of partnership or joint venture property, payroll and sales to be included in the corporation's property, payroll and sales factors must be computed on the basis of the corporation's ownership interest in the partnership or joint venture. Briefly describe the nature and location(s) of your Utah business activities in the space provided at the top of this schedule.

Lines 1a - 1f ­

Property Factor

Show the average cost value during the taxable year of real and tangible personal property used in the business within Utah (including leased property) in column A and overall (including Utah) in column B. Property owned by the corporation is valued at its original cost. Property rented by the corporation is valued at eight times the net annual rental rate.Net annual rental rate is the annual rental rate paid by the corporation less the annual rate received by the corporation from subrentals.

Page 9

The average value of property must be determined by averaging the cost values at the beginning and end of the tax period. However, monthly values may be used or required if monthly averaging more clearly reflects the average value of the corporation's property. A supporting schedule should be attached whenever monthly averaging is used. Enter totals of lines 1a through 1e in their respective columns on line 1f.

Nexus definition: The jurisdictional link that must be present before a state may tax a corporation upon its activities within a state's borders.

Line 6 ­ Sales Factor Calculation
Determine the sales factor (decimal) by dividing line 5h column A by line 5h column B.

Line 2 ­ Property Factor Calculation
Determine the property factor (decimal) by dividing line 1f column A by line 1f column B.

Line 3 ­ Payroll Factor
Wages, salaries, commissions and other includable compensation paid to employees for personal services must be included in the Utah factor to the extent the services, for which the compensation was paid, were rendered in Utah. Compensation is paid in Utah if: 1. The individual's service is performed entirely within Utah; 2. The individual's service is performed both within and outside Utah, but the service performed outside Utah is incidental to the individual's service within Utah; or 3. Some of the service is performed in Utah and: a. The base of operations or, if there is no base of operations the place where the service is directed or controlled, is within Utah, or b. The base of operations or the place where the service is directed or controlled is not in any state where some part of the service is performed, but the individual's residence is in Utah. Amounts reportable for employment security purposes may ordinarily be used to determine the wage factor. Overall wages, including Utah, are listed in column B.

Line 7 ­ Total Factors
Enter the sum of the factors from lines 2, 4 and 6.

Line 8 ­ Apportionment Fraction

If one or more of the factors are not present (i.e., there is a zero in the denominator on lines 1f, 3a or 5h in column B), divide by the number of factors present. If the numerator is zero, but a denominator is present, include that factor in the number of factors present. Enter the apportionment fraction (decimal) here and on Schedule A, line 8, if not electing the double-weighted sales factor below.

Double-Weighted Sales Factor Election
You may elect to give double-weight to the sales factor in the apportionment calculation. The double-weighted sales factor election is irrevocable and must be used for five years. If you elect this calculation, enter an "X" in the box on line 9 and complete lines 10 through 12.

Line 4 ­ Payroll Factor Calculation
Determine the payroll factor (decimal) by dividing line 3a column A by line 3a column B.

Line 9 ­ Making the Election
Enter an "X" in the box on line 9 if you elect the doubleweighted sales factor.

Lines 5a - 5h ­

Sales Factor

The sales factor is the fraction the sales or charges for services within Utah for the taxable year bear to the overall sales for the taxable year. Gross receipts from the performance of services are in Utah to the extent the services are performed in Utah. Sales of tangible personal property are in Utah if the property is delivered or shipped to a purchaser within Utah regardless of the F.O.B. point or other conditions of the sale, or if the property is shipped from an office, store, warehouse, factory or other place of storage in Utah and: (1) the purchaser is the United States Government, or (2) the corporation is not taxable in the state of the purchaser. Overall sales, including Utah, are listed in column B.

Line 10 ­ Doubled Sales Factor
Multiply the sales factor (decimal) from line 6 above by 2. This will result in the sales factor being considered twice in the calculation.

Line 11 ­ Total Factors
Enter the sum of the factors from lines 2, 4 and 10.

Line 12 ­ Elected Apportionment Fraction
Calculate the elected, double-weighted sales factor apportionment fraction to six decimals by dividing line 11 by the number of factors used (typically 4 ­ property, payroll and two times the sales factor). If one or more

Page 10

of the factors are not present (i.e., there is a zero in the denominator on lines 1f or 3a in column B), divide by the number of factors present (allowing two factors for sales). If the numerator is zero, but a denominator is present, include that factor in the number of factors present. Enter the apportionment fraction (decimal) here and on Schedule A, line 8.

Specialized Apportionment Rules
Specialized apportionment rules apply for: · · · · · Trucking Companies (R865-6F-19) Railroads (R865-6F-29) Publishing Companies (R865-6F-31) Financial Institutions (R865-6F-32) Telecommunication (R865-6F-33)

Instructions for Schedule M ­ Qualified Subchapter S Subsidiaries

Federal schedules are not acceptable as substitutes. Use of any other form as a substitute for Schedule M is only acceptable with prior approval from the Tax Commission. Refer to Pub 99, Guidelines for Substitute and Copied Utah Tax Forms. List only corporations incorporated, qualified or doing business in Utah. Corporations not listed on Schedule M will not be considered to have met the Utah filing requirements.

Instructions for Schedule N ­ Nonresident Tax Remittance Information
The S corporation must pay or withhold tax on behalf of each nonresident shareholder, except nonresident shareholders who are exempt from the tax under Section 501 of the Internal Revenue Code. A nonresident's share of taxable income is based on the ratio of stock held by the nonresident to the total outstanding stock on the last day of the corporate filing period, unless there was a change in ownership during the filing period. If there was a change in nonresident shareholders or in the relative interest in stock the shareholders owned, each shareholder's percentage of ownership is prorated by the number of days the stock was owned during the filing period. Nonresident S corporation shareholders are entitled to a credit for the amount of tax paid by the S corporation on their behalf. To claim the credit, the shareholder must file a Utah income tax return for the taxable year. A nonresident shareholder who has no other Utah source income may elect to forego the credit and not to file a Utah income tax return. However, nonresident shareholders with income or loss from other Utah sources must file a Utah income tax return. A nonresident shareholder who is eligible for Utah tax credits, in addition to the apportioned tax withheld, may claim those credits by filing a Utah income tax return. Note to Tax Preparer: It is recommended that the amount of Utah income tax paid on behalf of each shareholder be included on their federal Schedule K-1.
