(4) Defense contract renegotiation. If the renegotiation or price redetermination of any corporation defense contract or subcontract by the government of the United States or any agency thereof or the voluntary adjustment of prices, costs or profits on any such contract or subcontract results in a reduction of income, the amount of any repayment or credit pursuant to such renegotiation, price redetermination or adjustment, including any federal income taxes credited as a part thereof, shall be allowed as a deduction from the corporate taxable income of the year in which said income was reported for taxation. Any federal income tax previously paid upon any income so repaid or credited shall be disallowed as a deduction from income of the year in which such tax was originally deducted, to the extent that such tax constituted an allowable deduction for said year. Any corporate taxpayer affected by such renegotiation, price redetermination or voluntary adjustment may within one year after the final determination thereof file a claim for refund and secure the same without interest, and the department of revenue shall make appropriate adjustments on account of said tax deductions without interest, notwithstanding the limitations of
s. 71.75 or other applicable statutes.
71.30(5)
(5) Disc income combining.

The net income of the parent corporation shall not include dividends received from the DISC paid from income previously combined for taxation under this subsection. "DISC" (domestic international sales corporation) has the meaning specified in section
992 of the internal revenue code as amended to December 31, 1979. For purposes of this subsection, a corporation is affiliated if at least 50% of its total combined voting stock is owned directly or indirectly by its parent corporation.
71.30(6)
(6) Instalment method; distributions and final year. A corporation entitled to use the instalment method of accounting shall take the unreported balance of gain on all instalment obligations into income in the taxable year of their distribution, transfer or acquisition by another person or for the final taxable year for which it files or is required to file a return under this chapter, whichever year occurs first.

71.30(8)(b)
(b) For the purpose of this chapter, if a corporation which is required to file an income or franchise tax return is affiliated with or related to any other corporation through stock ownership by the same interests or as parent or subsidiary corporations or has income that is regulated through contract or other arrangement, the department of revenue may require such consolidated statements as in its opinion are necessary in order to determine the taxable income received by any one of the affiliated or related corporations.
71.30(9)
(9) Reserve account transfer to surplus. If any transfer of a reserve or other account or portion thereof is in effect a transfer to surplus, so much of such transfer as had been accumulated through deductions from the gross or taxable income of the years open to audit under

(2) shall be included in the gross or taxable income of such years, and so much of such transfer as has been accumulated through deductions from the gross or taxable income of the years following January 1, 1911, and not open to audit under

Imposition of additional tax on tax-option corporations. In addition to the other taxes imposed under this chapter, there is imposed on every tax-option corporation, except a corporation that qualifies for the exception under section
1374 (c) (1) of the internal revenue code and that has not elected to change from tax-option status under
s. 71.365 (4) (a) for that taxable year, that has a net recognized built-in gain, as defined in section
1374 (d) (2) of the internal revenue code, during a recognition period, as defined in section
1374 (d) (7) of the internal revenue code as modified by this section, a tax computed under section
1374 of the internal revenue code except that the rate is that under
s. 71.27 (2), the net recognized built-in gain is computed using the Wisconsin basis of the assets and the Wisconsin apportionment percentage for the current taxable year, the taxable income is the Wisconsin taxable income and the credit and net operating losses are those under this chapter rather than the federal credits and net operating losses.

s. 71.365 (4) (a) for any intervening year. If a corporation that elected to change from tax-option status under
s. 71.365 (4) (a) subsequently elects to become a tax-option corporation, its recognition period begins with the first day of the first taxable year affected by the subsequent election.

Tax-option items. 71.36(1)(1) It is the intent of this section that shareholders of tax-option corporations include in their Wisconsin adjusted gross income their proportionate share of the corporation's tax-option items unless the corporation elects under
s. 71.365 (4) (a) not to be a tax-option corporation.
71.36(1m)
(1m) A tax-option corporation may deduct from its net income all amounts included in the Wisconsin adjusted gross income of its shareholders, the capital gain deduction under
s. 71.05 (6) (b) 9. and all amounts not taxable to nonresident shareholders under
ss. 71.04 (1) and
(4) to
(9) and
71.362. For purposes of this subsection, interest on federal obligations, obligations issued under
s. 66.0621 by a local professional baseball park district or a local professional football stadium district or a local cultural arts district, obligations issued under
ss. 66.1201,
66.1333 and
66.1335, obligations issued under
s. 234.65 to fund an economic development loan to finance construction, renovation or development of property that would be exempt under
s. 70.11 (36) and obligations issued under
subch. II of ch. 229 is not included in shareholders' income. The proportionate share of the net loss of a tax-option corporation shall be attributed and made available to shareholders on a Wisconsin basis but subject to the limitation and carry-over rules as prescribed by section
1366 (d) of the internal revenue code. Net operating losses of the corporation to the extent attributed or made available to a shareholder may not be used by the corporation for further tax benefit. For purposes of computing the Wisconsin adjusted gross income of shareholders, tax-option items shall be reported by the shareholders and those tax-option items, including capital gains and losses, shall retain the character they would have if attributed to the corporation, including their character as business income. In computing the tax liability of a shareholder, no credit against gross tax that would be available to the tax-option corporation if it were a nontax-option corporation may be claimed.
71.36 Note
NOTE: Sub. (1m) is shown as affected by two acts of the 1999 legislature and as merged by the revisor under s. 13.93 (2) (c).
71.36(2)
(2) A tax-option corporation shall separately state all tax-option items the separate treatment of which may affect the liability of any shareholder for tax under this chapter.
71.36(3)(a)(a) The tax treatment of all tax-option items shall be determined at the corporate level.
71.36(3)(b)
(b) All shareholders of tax-option corporations shall treat tax-option items on their returns under this chapter in a manner consistent with the manner in which those tax-option items are treated on the corporation's Wisconsin income or franchise tax return or shall notify the department of revenue of any inconsistency and the reason for it.
