LINE 1: Your qualified company must have a signed PEAK incentive
agreement with the Kansas Department of Commerce (KDOC)
in order for you, the owner, to claim this credit.

outside of Kansas you will need to complete a Kansas business
income apportionment schedule to calculate the total of all your
business income that is apportioned to Kansas (this may have
already been completed at the business level). You may use
the Kansas Corporation Apportionment Schedule, K-120AS,
for the calculation. Visit our website at ksrevenue.gov for
more information on apportioning Kansas business
income. This must be done before apportioning the PEAK

apportionment factor you will need to complete the Qualified
Company Apportionment Schedule, PART D. See instructions

to Kansas.
LINE 10: Enter the percentage that represents your proportionate
share in the partnership, S corporation, LLC or LLP. All other
taxpayers: Enter 100%.
LINE 11: Multiply line 9 by line 10. This will be the owner’s share
of income.
LINE 12: Use amount on line 11 and the tax computation schedule
provided to calculate the Kansas tax liability attributed to the
income of the qualified business. Enter result on line 12.
LINE 13: Multiply line 12 by 95%. This is your share of the Owners
PEAK credit.
LINE 14: Your Kansas tax liability after any other states’ tax
credit(s). Enter the amount of your Kansas tax liability for this
tax year after all credits other than this credit.
LINE 15: Total credit. Enter amount from line 13 or line 14, whichever
is less. Also enter this amount on line 15 of Form K-40.
PART D – QUALIFIED COMPANY APPORTIONMENT SCHEDULE (QCAS)
To determine the business income attributable to the business
activity conducted at the qualified business relocated to Kansas, the
business income determined in PART C, line 7 must be multiplied
by a three-factor formula comprised of the PEAK location Kansas
property, payroll and sales factors divided by total Kansas property,
payroll and sales factors.
The property factor is a fraction, the numerator of which is
the average value of the company’s real and tangible personal
property owned or rented and used during the tax period at such
relocated facility, office, department or other relocated operation
in Kansas, and the denominator of which is the average value of
the company’s real and tangible personal property owned or rented
and used within this state during the tax period. (Rented property
is equal to the sum of; total rented property at the beginning of the
year plus total rented property at the end of the year divided by 2.
Multiply the result of this by 8.)
The payroll factor is a fraction, the numerator of which is the total
amount paid during the tax period by the company for compensation
at such relocated facility, office, department or other relocated
operation in Kansas, and the denominator of which is the total
compensation paid by the company in this state during the tax period.

sales of the relocated facility, office, department or other relocated
operation in this state during the tax period, and the denominator

Form K-88 is a Kansas Corporate Income Tax form. States often have dozens of even hundreds of various tax credits, which, unlike deductions, provide a dollar-for-dollar reduction of tax liability. Some common tax credits apply to many taxpayers, while others only apply to extremely specific situations. In most cases, you will have to provide evidence to show that you are eligible for the tax credit, and calculate the amount of the credit to which you are entitled.

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.
