Rule 701-219.20 - Exempt sale, lease, or rental of equipment used by contractors, subcontractors, or builders

(1)Exempt lease or rental of machinery and equipment. The sales price on the lease or rental only of the following types of machinery and equipment is exempt from tax: all machinery, equipment, and replacement parts directly and primarily used by contractors, subcontractors, and builders for new construction, reconstruction, alterations, expansion, or remodeling of structures and all machinery, equipment, and replacement parts that improve the performance, safety, operation, or efficiency of the equipment and replacement parts so used. A contractor's, subcontractor's, or builder's purchases of this equipment would continue to be taxable, as would a lessor's purchases of machinery, equipment, or replacement parts for subsequent exempt rental to a contractor, subcontractor, or builder.

(2)Exempt sales, including lease or rental of equipment. The sales price on the sale in any form, including lease or rental, of the following types of equipment is exempt from the tax imposed by Iowa Code chapter 423: self-propelled building equipment, self-constructed cranes, pile drivers, structural concrete forms, regular and motorized scaffolding, generators, or attachments customarily drawn or attached to those items of equipment, including auxiliary attachments that improve the performance, safety, operation, or efficiency of the equipment and replacement parts and are directly and primarily used by contractors, subcontractors, and builders for new construction, reconstruction, alterations, expansion, or remodeling of real property or structures. The sales price from a sale in a form other than that of a lease or rental is not exempt from all excise tax.

This rule is intended to implement Iowa Code sections 423.3(37) and 423.3(85).
