Part II: Narrative Explanation
II. A - Brief Description Of What The Measure Does That Has Fiscal Impact
Significant provisions of the bill and any related workload or policy assumptions that have revenue or expenditure impact on the responding agency by
section number.

 This legislation creates the Washington Employee Ownership program to support the efforts of businesses considering a
 sale to an employee ownership structure. Section 2(2)(a)(vi) of this legislation directs the Department Commerce to work
 with the Department of Financial Institutions (DFI) to shape and implement guidance on lending to broad-based employee
 ownership vehicles.

 Ownership interests in an employee cooperative would likely be securities, but securities issued by a mutual or cooperative
 association are eligible for an exemption from registration under RCW 21.20.320, provided some criteria are met. For the
 purposes of this fiscal note, DFI assumes that employee cooperatives would not be required to register as securities.

 The guidance issued by DFI on lending to broad-based employee ownership vehicles would fall under the agency’s existing
 regulatory responsibilities and the cost of that work would be absorbed. This bill has no fiscal impact.
II. B - Cash receipts Impact
Cash receipts impact of the legislation on the responding agency with the cash receipts provisions identified by section number and when appropriate, the
detail of the revenue sources. Description of the factual basis of the assumptions and the method by which the cash receipts impact is derived. Explanation
of how workload assumptions translate into estimates. Distinguished between one time and ongoing functions.

II. C - Expenditures
Agency expenditures necessary to implement this legislation (or savings resulting from this legislation), with the provisions of the legislation that result in
the expenditures (or savings) identified by section number. Description of the factual basis of the assumptions and the method by which the expenditure
impact is derived. Explanation of how workload assumptions translate into cost estimates. Distinguished between one time and ongoing functions.

Part II: Narrative Explanation
II. A - Brief Description Of What The Measure Does That Has Fiscal Impact
 Significant provisions of the bill and any related workload or policy assumptions that have revenue or expenditure impact on the responding agency by
 section number.

 This fiscal note addresses sections 4 and 5 of the bill, which impact the Department of Revenue (department).

 CURRENT LAW:
 The business and occupation (B&O) tax is a gross receipts tax. It is measured on the value of products, gross proceeds of
 sale, or gross income of each business. The tax rate varies by classification. Rates for the major classifications range from
 0.471% to 1.75%. Preferential rates are available for certain activities.

 Several credits exist for the B&O tax. However, the law does not allow a credit for the cost of converting a business to an
 employee-owned structure.

 PROPOSAL:
 This bill creates a credit against the B&O tax for each qualifying business that converts to any of the following employee
 ownership structures:
  - Employee stock ownership plan,
  - Worker-owned cooperative, or
  - Employee ownership trust.

 For each business with an employee stock ownership plan, the credit is equal to the greater of the following:
 - 50% of conversion costs, or
 - $100,000.

 For each business converting to a worker-owned cooperative or employee ownership trust, the credit is equal to the greater
 of the following:
  - 50% of conversion costs, or
  - $25,000.

 Each business may carry over unused credit to subsequent tax periods, as long it does so within 12 months of conversion.

 Statewide, the total amount of credits authorized is $2 million for each calendar year.

 “Conversion costs” means amounts spent on accounting, legal, and other professional services to pay for a feasibility study
 and/or a transition to an employee-owned structure.

 “Qualified business” means an entity that is:
  - Subject to the B&O tax,
  - Does not already have one of employee-owned structures for which the credit is available, and
  - Approved by the Department of Revenue for the credit.

 The credit expires on July 1, 2030.

 EFFECTIVE DATE:
 The bill takes effect 90 days after final adjournment of the session, except for the sections that create the credit which take
 effect on July 1, 2024.

 II. B - Cash receipts Impact
  Cash receipts impact of the legislation on the responding agency with the cash receipts provisions identified by section number and when appropriate,
  the detail of the revenue sources. Description of the factual basis of the assumptions and the method by which the cash receipts impact is derived.
  Explanation of how workload assumptions translate into estimates. Distinguished between one time and ongoing functions.

  ASSUMPTIONS:
  - The Department of Revenue conducts significant outreach about the credit, leading to a greater number of conversions.
  - The number of businesses that annually convert to employee ownership is:
     - Thirteen during the first year the credit is available, and
     - Fifteen for subsequent years.
  - All converting businesses use the credit.
  - For each converted business that uses the credit, the estimated credit amount is:
     - $45,000 for an employee stock ownership plan, and
     - $25,000 for a worker-owned cooperative.
  - Businesses using the credit in Washington are similar to Colorado businesses granted a credit for conversions during 2022
  with regards to annual revenues and type of employee ownership.
  - The B&O tax base grows as forecasted by the Economic and Revenue Forecast Council.
  - Currently, tribes with compacts receive a share of certain business and occupation taxes (RCW 43.06.523). Under this
  proposal the amount of revenue shared with tribes and local governments may decline.
