Kansas and the R&D Tax Credit
While you noted the indefinite Kansas Research and Development Credit is for C-Corporations at 6.5%, there are exciting recent legislative updates to share with you! As of tax year 2023, the allowable credit rate has increased to 10%. Additionally, eligibility has expanded beyond C-Corporations to include individuals, partnerships, S-Corporations, LLCs, and other pass-through entities. The credit is calculated on the difference between current-year qualified research expenses and the average expenditures of the current and prior two years. Claimed using Schedule K-53, annual credit usage remains limited to 25% of the total amount, with any remaining unused balance carrying forward indefinitely.
