Notwithstanding the preceding sentence, any tax (not described in the first sentence of this subsection) which is paid or accrued by the taxpayer in connection with an acquisition or disposition of property shall be treated as part of the cost of the acquired property or, in the case of a disposition, as a reduction in the amount realized on the disposition.

For purposes of this section—

(1)Personal property taxes

The term “personal property tax” means an ad valorem tax which is imposed on an annual basis in respect of personal property.

(3)Foreign taxes

A foreign tax includes only a tax imposed by the authority of a foreign country.

The GST tax imposed on income distributions is—

(i)

the tax imposed by section 2601, and

(ii)

any State tax described in section 2604 (as in effect before its repeal),

but only to the extent such tax is imposed on a transfer which is included in the gross income of the distributee and to which section 666 does not apply.

(B)Special rule for tax paid before due date

Any tax referred to in subparagraph (A) imposed with respect to a transfer occurring during the taxable year of the distributee (or, in the case of a taxable termination, the trust) which is paid not later than the time prescribed by law (including extensions) for filing the return with respect to such transfer shall be treated as having been paid on the last day of the taxable year in which the transfer was made.

(5)General sales taxes

For purposes of subsection (a)—

(A)Election to deduct State and local sales taxes in lieu of State and local income taxes

At the election of the taxpayer for the taxable year, subsection (a) shall be applied—

(C)Special rules for food, etc.

In the case of items of food, clothing, medical supplies, and motor vehicles—

(ii)

the fact that the rate of tax applicable with respect to some or all of such items is lower than the general rate of tax shall not be taken into account in determining whether the tax is imposed at one rate.

(E)Compensating use taxes

A compensating use tax with respect to an item shall be treated as a general sales tax. For purposes of the preceding sentence, the term “compensating use tax” means, with respect to any item, a tax which—

is complementary to a general sales tax, but only if a deduction is allowable under this paragraph with respect to items sold at retail in the taxing jurisdiction which are similar to such item.

(F)Special rule for motor vehicles

In the case of motor vehicles, if the rate of tax exceeds the general rate, such excess shall be disregarded and the general rate shall be treated as the rate of tax.

(G)Separately stated general sales taxes

If the amount of any general sales tax is separately stated, then, to the extent that the amount so stated is paid by the consumer (other than in connection with the consumer’s trade or business) to the seller, such amount shall be treated as a tax imposed on, and paid by, such consumer.

(d)Apportionment of taxes on real property between seller and purchaser
(1)General rule

For purposes of subsection (a), if real property is sold during any real property tax year, then—

(A)

so much of the real property tax as is properly allocable to that part of such year which ends on the day before the date of the sale shall be treated as a tax imposed on the seller, and

(B)

so much of such tax as is properly allocable to that part of such year which begins on the date of the sale shall be treated as a tax imposed on the purchaser.

(A)

In the case of any sale of real property, if—

(i)

a taxpayer may not, by reason of his method of accounting, deduct any amount for taxes unless paid, and

(ii)

the other party to the sale is (under the law imposing the real property tax) liable for the real property tax for the real property tax year,

then for purposes of subsection (a) the taxpayer shall be treated as having paid, on the date of the sale, so much of such tax as, under paragraph (1) of this subsection, is treated as imposed on the taxpayer. For purposes of the preceding sentence, if neither party is liable for the tax, then the party holding the property at the time the tax becomes a lien on the property shall be considered liable for the real property tax for the real property tax year.

(i)

is treated, under paragraph (1) of this subsection, as imposed on the taxpayer, and

the deduction allowed by subsection (a) shall be allowed to the corporation; and

no deduction shall be allowed the shareholder for such tax.

DIST. City Line Candy & Tobacco Corp., Petitioner 141 T.C. No. 13 · 2013

164(a) provides that State, local, and foreign taxes are deductible by the person on whomthe taxes are imposed. See sec. 1.164-l(a), Income Tax Regs. However, sec. 164(a) addresses only the deductibility oftaxes, not whether taxes should be included in gross receipts. Consequently, sec. 164(a) is inapplicable with respect to the issue ofwhetherpetitioner must include in gross receipts proceeds attributable to the cigarette tax stamps.

Section 164 allows itemized deductions for state and local personal property taxes and for state and local real property taxes paid during the taxable year.
