Statute Text
Pre-change and built-in losses.
(1) That portion of the pre-change and built-in losses which the taxpayer
deducted pursuant to section 382 of the Internal Revenue Code shall be added to
federal taxable income under ORS 317.344 or otherwise.
(2) Pre-change
losses and recognized built-in losses, subject to the limitation under section
382 of the Internal Revenue Code, shall not be considered in determining the
taxable loss and taxable loss carry forward under ORS 317.010 and 317.476.
(3) Any
pre-change losses and built-in losses, to the extent apportioned or allocated
to Oregon, with the additions, subtractions, modifications and other
adjustments required for purposes of this chapter, shall be carried forward and
subtracted in computing Oregon taxable income as provided under subsections (4)
to (6) of this section.
(4) The amount of
loss allowable under subsection (3) of this section in any tax year shall not
exceed the lesser of the Oregon source taxable income of the new loss
corporation or the Oregon percentage of the section 382 limitation determined,
or in the case of a corporation for which no section 382 limitation is
determined, as would be determined under section 382 (b) of the Internal
Revenue Code. The Oregon percentage for purposes of the subtraction under
subsection (3) of this section shall be computed with reference to the Oregon
apportionment factors of the new loss corporation existing as of the time of
change in ownership.
(5) In computing
Oregon taxable income, the amount of loss allowed as a subtraction under
subsection (3) of this section shall be subtracted in any one of the 15 years
succeeding the year of the loss. Subject to the limitation under subsection (4)
of this section, the amount of the loss subtracted in any taxable year shall be
the loss allowed as a subtraction under subsection (3) of this section reduced
by the amount subtracted or subtractible under subsection (3) of this section
for any intervening year between the year of loss and the tax year in which the
subtraction under this section is claimed. The loss of the earliest tax year
shall be exhausted before a loss under this section from a later year may be
subtracted.
(6) Oregon net
losses deductible under ORS 317.476 shall be determined and carried forward
before the amount subtractible under this section is determined. [1987 c.293 §45c;
1993 c.726 §48]
