A corporation elects the water's edge method by marking the circle entitled "Water's Edge Method" (c or c1) on page 1, line 1, for the first year of a five-year election. • An election must be made on the return as originally and timely filed. • Marking the circle for a sixth year is a new five-year election. • Any affiliated unitary foreign or domestic corporation that has income from North Dakota sources and is excluded from the water's edge group because it has less than twenty percent of its average property and payroll inside the U.S. is covered by the water's edge election and must file its water's edge return computing its income based on its single company pro forma federal taxable income. • If an election is not made for year six, the prior five-year election period lapses, and the filing method would be the worldwide unitary combined report method. A corporation electing the water's edge method must include only the apportionment factors and statutory adjustments of the water's edge group. • Returns for years two through five are then required to be filed under the water's edge method, and circle c or c1 should be marked for each year. • Marking the circle for years two through five does NOT constitute new, rolling five-year elections. Schedule WE general definitions "Water's edge group" includes a U.S. parent corporation, affiliated corporations incorporated in the U.S. (excluding 80/20 corporations), affiliated corporations incorporated in a possession of the U.S., IC DISCs, FSCs, export trade corporations and foreign affiliated corporations which meet a defined minimum of U.S. activity. "Affiliated corporation" means a parent corporation and any corporation of which more than fifty percent of the voting stock is owned directly or indirectly by the parent corporation or another member of the water's edge group. "Reversal of intercompany eliminations between water's edge corporations and 80/20 corporations" means the reversal of eliminations made between water's edge corporations and 80/20 corporations that are included in the federal consolidated return. Dividends, interest, royalties, capital gains and losses, intercompany profit on sales, etc. between water's edge corporations and 80/20 corporations that have been eliminated in preparing the consolidated federal return must be reversed. "Intercompany eliminations for water's edge group corporations" are eliminations of intercompany transactions between companies included in the water's edge group. amount of global intangible low taxed income under IRC section 951A is considered a foreign dividend. IRC section 78 gross up is not a foreign dividend. "80/20 corporation" is a corporation that is incorporated in the U.S., is eligible to be included in the federal consolidated return as defined in N.D.C.C. § 57-38.4-01(5) and has 20 percent or less of its average property and payroll for the tax year assigned to locations inside the fifty states, the District of Columbia, and possessions of the United States. "Net book income of an 80/20 corporation" means net book income after taxes for financial statement purposes. However, a corporation's net book income cannot be offset by a net book loss from another 80/20 corporation. "Foreign dividends" means any dividend received by a member of the water's edge group from any affiliated corporation incorporated outside the fifty states and District of Columbia, including amounts included in income computed under sections 951 through 954 of the Internal Revenue Code (IRC) of 1986, as amended. The "Rescission of a water's edge election". A corporation's water's edge election is rescinded if: • It has had more than 50% of its voting stock acquired by a nonaffiliated corporation; • It was formed as the result of a reorganization or spinoff and is no longer a member of the water's edge group; or • It is completely liquidated. The water's edge election of any corporation receiving liquidated assets is not affected. Additional Information Regarding The Water's Edge Method Is Contained In N.D.C.C. ch. 57-38.4 and N.D. Admin.

Form 40 is a North Dakota Corporate Income Tax form. Like the Federal Form 1040, states each provide a core tax return form on which most high-level income and tax calculations are performed. While some taxpayers with simple returns can complete their entire tax return on this single form, in most cases various other additional schedules and forms must be completed, depending on the taxpayer's individual situation, to create a complete income tax return package.

About the Corporate Income Tax

The IRS and most states require corporations to file an income tax return, with the exact filing requirements depending on the type of company.

Sole proprietorships or disregarded entities like LLCs are filed on Schedule C (or the state equivalent) of the owner's personal income tax return, flow-through entities like S Corporations or Partnerships are generally required to file an informational return equivilent to the IRS Form 1120S or Form 1065, and full corporations must file the equivalent of federal Form 1120 (and, unlike flow-through corporations, are often subject to a corporate tax liability).

Additional forms are available for a wide variety of specific entities and transactions including fiduciaries, nonprofits, and companies involved in other specific types of business.
