California defination of doing business
Neal California’s position on doing business in California john California For the first time, the factor-presence standard is being applied to a
traditional corporate income or franchise tax. It has formerly been
incorporated in only non-income based taxes, such as gross-receipts taxes. For
tax years beginning on or after January 1, 2011, California defines
“doing business” for purposes of income and franchise tax based on
a factor presence standard modeled directly on the MTC statute. Companies with property
or payroll of $50,000 or sales in excess of $500,000 to California customers
will now be determined to be doing business in the state. If more than 25
percent of a company’s sales are in the state, including sales made by
independent contractors or agents, the company will be subject to income and
franchise tax, regardless of whether or not physical presence has been
established. JOHN J RENNER II RENNER AND COMPANY,CPA,
