OAR 150-314-0100
Disallowance of Certain Intercompany Transactions Involving Intangible Assets
(1)
The provisions of section (3) of this rule apply in situations where:(a)
An intangible asset is owned by one corporation, organization, trade or business (the owner) and used by another (the user) for a royalty or other fee,(b)
Both the owner and the user are “owned by the same interests,” as defined in Treas. Reg.§1.469-4T, paragraph (j),(c)
The owner and the user are not included in the same Oregon tax return, and(d)
The separation of ownership of the intangible asset from the user of the intangible asset results in either:(A)
Evasion of tax, or(B)
A computation of Oregon taxable income that is not clearly reflective of Oregon apportionable income.(2)
For purposes of this rule, separation of the ownership and use of an intangible asset is for “evasion of taxes” when such separation has no effect on the operations of the user beyond payment of the royalty or other fee.(3)
The user of the intangible asset must add the royalty or other expense for such use to federal taxable income as an “other addition” on the Oregon tax return. The owner of the intangible asset must subtract the royalty or other income from such use from federal taxable income as an “other subtraction” on the Oregon tax return. The following example is for illustrative purposes only.
