increasing

the carryover period of the research income tax credit.
Analysis by the Legislative Reference Bureau
This bill allows claimants of the research income and franchise tax credit to carry over unused research credits for 50 years until they are used to offset tax liability in future years. Under current law, claimants may carry over unused research credits for the following 15 years after the credit is initially claimed. Under current law, the research credit is an income and franchise tax credit equal to a specified percentage of a person’s qualified research expenses that exceed 50 percent of the person’s average qualified research expenses for the three tax years immediately preceding the tax year for which the person claims the credit.
For further information see the state fiscal estimate, which will be printed as an appendix to this bill.
The people of the state of Wisconsin, represented in senate and assembly, do enact as follows:
