 Roll call was demanded on Part A to amend on page 2, after line 7, by inserting the
following:

 ``New Sec. 2. For all taxable years commencing after December 31, 1999, there shall be
allowed as a credit against the tax liability imposed under the Kansas income tax act upon
an individual who is certificated to instruct and educate students of grades kindergarten
through 12 in an accredited school, whether public or otherwise, an amount, not to exceed
$100, equal to the purchase costs of equipment, materials or other teaching aids for use in
the classroom to assist in the education of the students of such individual. If the amount of
such tax credit exceeds the individual's income tax liability for the appropriate taxable year,
such excess amount shall be refunded.

 Sec. 4. K.S.A. 1999 Supp. 79-32,117 is hereby amended to read as follows: 79-32,117. (a)
The Kansas adjusted gross income of an individual means such individual's federal adjusted
gross income for the taxable year, with the modifications specified in this section.

 (b) There shall be added to federal adjusted gross income:

 (i) Interest income less any related expenses directly incurred in the purchase of state or
political subdivision obligations, to the extent that the same is not included in federal ad-
justed gross income, on obligations of any state or political subdivision thereof, but to the
extent that interest income on obligations of this state or a political subdivision thereof issued
prior to January 1, 1988, is specifically exempt from income tax under the laws of this state
authorizing the issuance of such obligations, it shall be excluded from computation of Kansas
adjusted gross income whether or not included in federal adjusted gross income. Interest
income on obligations of this state or a political subdivision thereof issued after December
31, 1987, shall be excluded from computation of Kansas adjusted gross income whether or
not included in federal adjusted gross income.

 (ii) Taxes on or measured by income or fees or payments in lieu of income taxes imposed
by this state or any other taxing jurisdiction to the extent deductible in determining federal
adjusted gross income and not credited against federal income tax. This paragraph shall not
apply to taxes imposed under the provisions of K.S.A. 79-1107 or 79-1108, and amendments
thereto, for privilege tax year 1995, and all such years thereafter.

 (iii) The federal net operating loss deduction.

 (iv) Federal income tax refunds received by the taxpayer if the deduction of the taxes
being refunded resulted in a tax benefit for Kansas income tax purposes during a prior
taxable year. Such refunds shall be included in income in the year actually received regard-
less of the method of accounting used by the taxpayer. For purposes hereof, a tax benefit
shall be deemed to have resulted if the amount of the tax had been deducted in determining
income subject to a Kansas income tax for a prior year regardless of the rate of taxation
applied in such prior year to the Kansas taxable income, but only that portion of the refund
shall be included as bears the same proportion to the total refund received as the federal
taxes deducted in the year to which such refund is attributable bears to the total federal
income taxes paid for such year. For purposes of the foregoing sentence, federal taxes shall
be considered to have been deducted only to the extent such deduction does not reduce
Kansas taxable income below zero.

 (v) The amount of any depreciation deduction or business expense deduction claimed on
the taxpayer's federal income tax return for any capital expenditure in making any building
or facility accessible to the handicapped, for which expenditure the taxpayer claimed the
credit allowed by K.S.A. 79-32,177, and amendments thereto.

 (vi) Any amount of designated employee contributions picked up by an employer pursuant
to K.S.A. 12-5005, 20-2603, 74-4919 and 74-4965, and amendments to such sections.

 (vii) The amount of any charitable contribution made to the extent the same is claimed
as the basis for the credit allowed pursuant to K.S.A. 79-32,196, and amendments thereto.

 (viii) The amount of any costs incurred for improvements to a swine facility, claimed for
deduction in determining federal adjusted gross income, to the extent the same is claimed
as the basis for any credit allowed pursuant to K.S.A. 1999 Supp. 79-32,204 and amendments
thereto.

 (ix) The amount of any ad valorem taxes and assessments paid and the amount of any
costs incurred for habitat management or construction and maintenance of improvements
on real property, claimed for deduction in determining federal adjusted gross income, to
the extent the same is claimed as the basis for any credit allowed pursuant to K.S.A. 79-
32,203 and amendments thereto.

 (x) The amount of any contribution made to an elementary or secondary school to the
extent the same is claimed as the basis for the credit allowed pursuant to section 2.

 (c) There shall be subtracted from federal adjusted gross income:

 (i) Interest or dividend income on obligations or securities of any authority, commission
or instrumentality of the United States and its possessions less any related expenses directly
incurred in the purchase of such obligations or securities, to the extent included in federal
adjusted gross income but exempt from state income taxes under the laws of the United
States.

 (ii) Any amounts received which are included in federal adjusted gross income but which
are specifically exempt from Kansas income taxation under the laws of the state of Kansas.

 (iii) The portion of any gain or loss from the sale or other disposition of property having
a higher adjusted basis for Kansas income tax purposes than for federal income tax purposes
on the date such property was sold or disposed of in a transaction in which gain or loss was
recognized for purposes of federal income tax that does not exceed such difference in basis,
but if a gain is considered a long-term capital gain for federal income tax purposes, the
modification shall be limited to that portion of such gain which is included in federal adjusted
gross income.

 (iv) The amount necessary to prevent the taxation under this act of any annuity or other
amount of income or gain which was properly included in income or gain and was taxed
under the laws of this state for a taxable year prior to the effective date of this act, as
amended, to the taxpayer, or to a decedent by reason of whose death the taxpayer acquired
the right to receive the income or gain, or to a trust or estate from which the taxpayer
received the income or gain.

 (v) The amount of any refund or credit for overpayment of taxes on or measured by
income or fees or payments in lieu of income taxes imposed by this state, or any taxing
jurisdiction, to the extent included in gross income for federal income tax purposes.

extent that the same are included in federal adjusted gross income.
