This booklet is intended as a guide to help complete theCorporateIncomeTax(CIT)return.Itdoesnottaketheplaceofthelaw.

Who Files a Standard Return?Under the CIT, taxpayer means a C Corporation, insurancecompany, financial institution, or a Unitary Business Group(UBG) liable for tax, interest, or penalty. All taxpayers(described here as standard taxpayers) other than financialinstitutions and insurance companies with apportioned orallocatedgross receiptsequal to$350,000ormoreandwhoseCIT liability is greater than $100 must file a CIT AnnualReturn(Form4891).(See“FilingifTaxYearIsLessThan12Months” in this“General Information”section.)The lawdoesnot require the filing of the CIT return by a taxpayer whosegross receipts apportioned or allocated to Michigan are lessthan $350,000 orwhoseCIT liability is less than or equal to$100.Thereisnotaseparateformforreportingthatataxpayerhasnofilingrequirement.However, taxpayerswithoutafilingrequirementmaychoosetofileareturntoclaimarefundoftheestimatedpaymentsmadeorflow-throughwithholdingpaidontheirbehalfor create andcarry forwardanavailablebusinessloss.

Public Law 86-272:Ifataxpayer’sactivityisprotectedunderPublic Law (PL) 86-272, but the taxpayer wishes to claim arefund, the taxpayermust file a Form 4891.When filing thisform,leavelines12through41andlines49through53blank,andincludeanattachmentexplainingthecircumstancesofthePL86-272protection.Line42andline43mustbecompletedtoreportanyrecaptureofcredits.

UBGs: If all members of the UBG are claiming PL 86-272protection, then the UBGwill leave lines 12 through 41 andlines 49 through 53 blank and include a statement explainingthe circumstances of the PL 86-272 protection for eachmember. Lines42and43ofform4891mustbecompletedtoreport any recapture of credits by the group. (Each memberwill leave lines 21 through 35 blank on the CIT Data on Unitary Business Group Members, Form 4897.) However, aslong as onemember of aUBGhas nexuswithMichigan andexceedstheprotectionsofPL86-272,allmembersoftheUBG— including members protected under PL 86-272 — mustbe included when calculating the UBG’s CIT tax base andapportionment formula. PL 86-272 will only remove incomefromtheapportionableCITtaxbasewhenallmembersoftheUBGareprotectedunderPL86-272.

EXCEPTION:Aperson thatwouldbeastandard taxpayer ifviewedseparatelyisdefinedandtaxedasafinancialinstitutionif it is owned, directly or indirectly, by a financial institutionand is in a UBG with its owner. A person in this situationwill report on the CIT UBG Combined Filing Schedule for Financial Institutions (Form 4910), which supports the CIT Annual Return for Financial Institutions (Form4908).

UBGs: For a UBG (discussed in greater detail below), the$350,000filingthresholdiscalculatedbyaddinggrossreceipts

of every member and after elimination of intercompanytransactions.The tax liability thresholdof$100 isdeterminedonagroupbasis.

Insurance companies and financial institutions will calculatetax liability using specialized tax bases and rules, which arecovered in separate booklets (see the Insurance Company Annual Return for Corporate Income and Retaliatory Taxes (Form4905)andForm4908,respectively).

Using This BookletThis CIT booklet includes forms and instructions for all“standardtaxpayers”(allfilersexceptinsurancecompaniesandfinancial institutions). These forms are designed for calendaryear2016andforafiscalfilerwithataxyearendingin2017.

Read the “General Information” section first. The MichiganDepartmentofTreasury(Treasury)recommendstaxpayersandtaxpreparersalsoreviewtheinstructionsforallforms.

Overview of CIT for Standard TaxpayersThe CIT imposes a tax on all standard taxpayers withapportioned or allocated gross receipts (annualized, ifapplicable)equalto$350,000ormoreandwhoseCITliabilityismorethan$100.TheCITtaxrateis6percent.

Thestatuteoffersonenon-refundablecreditthatisavailableforstandard taxpayers. The Small Business Alternative Credit isavailable for qualifying standard taxpayers by calculating thecreditontheCIT Small Business Alternative Credit(Form4893).

For standard taxpayers, the CIT tax base is the taxpayer’sfederal taxable income (as defined for CIT purposes), withcertainadditionsandsubtractions.

Filing CIT Quarterly Tax Estimates If estimated liability for the year is reasonably expected toexceed$800,ataxpayermustfileestimatedreturns.Ataxpayermay remit quarterly estimated payments by check with aCorporate Income Tax Quarterly Return (Form 4913) ormayremitmonthly or quarterly estimated payments electronicallybyElectronicFundsTransfer(EFT).WhenpaymentsaremadebyEFT,Form4913isnotrequired.

NOTE:Formerly, taxpayerscouldpaybycheckonamonthlyor quarterly basis by remitting a check with a CombinedReturnforMichiganTax(Form160).Form160wasreplaced.The new form no longer accommodates CIT payments. Asa result, Form 4913 is the only form that supports a CITestimatedpayment.

Suggested Order of Analysis and Preparation of a CIT Annual ReturnFirst, determine whether the taxpayer has nexus withMichigan. Nexus is a legal term that expresses whether ataxpayer has sufficient connection to Michigan to justifysubjecting the taxpayer to Michigan tax. See RevenueAdministrative Bulletins (RAB) 2013-9 and 2014-5 onTreasury’sWebsiteatwww.michigan.gov/treasury.

Next,determinewhetherthetaxpayerhas$350,000ormoreofgross receipts that are apportioned or allocated to Michigan.(See “Filing if Tax Year Is Less Than 12 Months” in this“GeneralInformation”section,ifapplicable.)

Gross receipts means the entire amount received by thetaxpayer from any activity, whether in intrastate, interstate,or foreign commerce, carried out for direct or indirect gain,benefit,oradvantagetothetaxpayerortoothers,withcertainexceptions. Gross receipts also include the imputed grossreceipts fromany(unitaryornon-unitary)flow-throughentitythat is not electing to be taxed under MBT and from whichthe taxpayer receives a distributive share of income or loss.ThestatutorydefinitionofgrossreceiptsisfoundinMichiganCompiledLaws(MCL)206.607(4).Guidanceongrossreceiptscan be found in the instructions for the CIT Annual Return (Form4891).

Gross receipts is a worldwide figure. For a taxpayer that hasnexus only with Michigan, all gross receipts are allocatedto Michigan. A taxpayer that has nexus with Michigan andat least one other state or foreign country must calculate itsapportionmentpercentageandmultiply its totalgross receiptsby that apportionment percentage. See Form 4891, lines 9athrough9g,andaccompanyinginstructionsforthiscalculation.

Theresultingfigureisthetaxpayer’sgrossreceiptsapportionedtoMichigan.

Ifallof theforegoingconsiderationsdeterminethatataxpayermustfileaCITreturn,standardtaxpayerswilluseForm4891tofileforCIT.Itisavailabletoallstandardtaxpayers,andallowsforthecalculationoftheSmallBusinessAlternativeCredit.

For a taxpayer using Form 4891, first complete lines 1 through39 to calculate Corporate Income Tax Before Credit. At thatpoint, if theSmallBusinessAlternativeCreditwill be claimed,complete the CIT Small Business Alternative Credit (Form4893). In addition, a taxpayer that is claiming the SmallBusinessAlternativeCreditwill need to complete theSchedule of Shareholders and Officers (Form 4894) to determine if theyqualifyforthecredit.

After the Small Business Alternative Credit has beendeterminedonForm4893,line14orline18,carrythefiguretoForm4891, line40.FollowtheForm4891instructionsfor theremaininglines.

If preparing a UBG return for a standard taxpayer, completethe CIT Data on Unitary Business Group Members (Form4897)foreachmemberfirst,asthisformprovidesthedatathatisrequiredonForm4891.

LLC. An LLC is classified for CIT purposes according toits federal tax classification. The following terms, wheneverused inCIT forms, instructions, and statute, includeLLCsasindicated:

• S Corporation includes an LLC federally taxed as an SCorporation,andamemberofthisLLCisashareholder.

• C Corporation includes an LLC federally taxed as a CCorporation,andamemberofthisLLCisashareholder.Amemberorotherpersonperformingduties similar to thoseofanofficerinanincorporatedentityisan“officer”inthisLLC.

NOTE:Inthisbooklet,theterm“corporation,”usedwithoutaCreferstoaCCorporation.

NOTE:Apersonthatisadisregardedentityforfederalincometax purposes, including a single member LLC or qualifiedsubchapter S subsidiary (Q-Sub), is disregarded for purposesof CIT. If the owner of the disregarded entity files CIT, theactivity of the disregarded entity must be included on thatreturn.

UBGs and Combined FilingNOTE: UBGs are addressed here, in general. In theinstructions for each form, “Special Instructions for UnitaryBusiness Groups” are located directly before “Line-by-LineInstructions.”Theareasinthe“Line-by-LineInstructions”thatapplyonlytoUBGsarelabeled“UBGs.”Additionaldirectionis found in the “Supplemental Instructions for StandardMembersinUBGs”sectionofthisinstructionbooklet.

General Overview of Unitary TaxationMore than 20 states have adopted unitary taxation. Unitarytaxationisamethodoftaxingrelatedpersonsthat,ifitapplies,generallytreatsthoserelatedpersonsasiftheywereone.Therearespecifictests,discussedbelow,todeterminewhethertwoormorebusinessentitiesaresufficientlyconnectedbyownershipandbusinessrelationshipstobetreatedasagroup.

Onememberwill be designated as the group’s representativefor filing the return and corresponding with Treasury. Thismember is referred to throughout these instructions as thedesignated member (DM). Included in that return will beseparate forms that report income, deductions, and activitiesseparately by member, and then the combined amounts areentered on the Form 4891. References in the instructions to“thetaxpayer”generallywillrefertothegroupratherthananyoneofitsmembers.

This is a simplification for introductory purposes, and therearemanydetailsandexceptionsdescribedthroughouttheCITforms and instructions. In particular, tax credits, transactionsbetweenmembers,andthepresenceoffinancialinstitutionsorinsurancecompaniesinthegrouprequirecarefulattention.

Role of the Designated Member: TheDM speaks, acts, andfiles theCIT return on behalf of theUBG forCIT purposes.Only theDMmayfileavalidextension request for theUBG.Treasury maintains the UBG’s CIT tax data (e.g., prior CITreturns,overpaymentcreditforward)undertheDM’snameandFederalEmployerIdentificationNumber(FEIN).

Exemption Guidelines for CITThefollowingmaybeexemptfromCIT:

• Most persons who are exempt from federal income taxundertheIRC.

• Nonprofitcooperativehousingcorporations.

• Foreign person that is domiciled in a member country ofthe North American free trade agreement if the foreignperson is domiciled in a subnational jurisdiction that doesnot impose an income tax on a similarly situated persondomiciled in Michigan. For purposes of this provision,foreignpersonisdefinedinMCL206.625(5)(c).

• Domestic International Sales Corporations (DISCs) asdefinedinIRC992.

If a taxpayer is exempt under the first bullet above, but hasunrelatedbusiness taxable incomeas defined in the IRC; thatbusiness activity is subject to the CIT and a return will berequired if the apportioned or allocated gross receipts are$350,000ormorefromtheunrelatedbusinessactivity.

Foreign persons that are not exempt from the CIT mustcalculatebusinessincome,grossreceipts,CITtaxbase,andthesalesfactordifferentlythandomestictaxpayers.RefertoMCL206.625(2)-(4)fordetails.

For a complete list of exemptions, consult theCIT (PA 38 of2011,asamended)atwww.legislature.mi.gov.

If a taxpayer is exemptandhasnounrelatedbusiness taxableincome,filingaCITreturnisnotrequired.

Flow-Through WithholdingOn January 1, 2012, several changes to the Income Tax Actof1967(ITA)went intoeffectestablishinganewwithholdingrequirement for flow-through entities that have members,partners, or shareholders that are corporations or other flow-throughentities.ThesewithholdingrequirementsareknownasFlow-ThroughWithholding(FTW).

UnderFTW,everyflow-throughentitywithbusinessactivityinMichiganthatreasonablyexpectstoaccruemorethan$200,000in apportioned or allocated business income for the tax yearmustwithholdon thedistributiveshareofeachmember that isacorporationoranintermediateflow-throughentityat theCITrateof6percent.“Businessincome”forthispurposeisdefinedusing the same rules as those contained in the CIT. However,because FTW is concerned with the business income of flow-through entities and not corporations, business income forflow-throughentitiesisfurtherdefinedtoincludepaymentsanditems of income and expense that are attributable to businessactivityoftheflow-throughentityandseparatelyreportedtoitsmembers.The distributive share of business incomeof a flow-throughentity is subject toFTW,and theCIT,even if it isnotactuallydistributedorpaidtothemember.

When a corporation had taxes withheld under FTW, theamount is treated as a CIT payment that will be appliedagainst the corporation’s CIT liability. A corporation thathas had taxes withheld on its distributive share of flow-through entity business income is not required to makequarterly estimated payments on that income. To claim thesepayments, the corporationwill be required tofileForm4891.IfthecorporationisamemberofaUBG,thenthesepaymentsshall be claimed on the member’s Form 4897, and the sumof all members’ FTW payments shall be claimed on theUBG’sForm4891. If thecorporation isbelowoneof theCITfiling thresholds then it may file a Form 4891 to claim thesepayments.

The flow-through entity is required to notify the members ithaswithheldonoftheamountofwithholdingpaidonbehalfofthatmemberaswellasotherinformationthatthememberwillneedtocompleteitsCITreturn.Thereisnosetmethodforthisreporting to be done.Treasury has recommended that this bereported to themembers as a supplemental attachment to thefederal ScheduleK-1 that is required to be submitted to eachmember.Foracorporation,thisinformationwillincludethe:

• FEINoftheflow-throughentity• Taxyearoftheflow-throughentity• FTWpaidonbehalfofthatmember• Member’s tentative distributive share of the flow-through

entity’sbusinessincome• Flow-through entity’s sales that have been sourced to

Michigan• Flow-throughentity’stotalsales.

TherearealsoseveralexemptionsfromtheFTWrequirements,which are explained in the FTW Forms and Instructions Booklet (Form 5014) and on Treasury’s Web site at www.michigan.gov/ftw.

NOTE: Under Public Act 158 of 2016, Flow-ThroughWithholding is no longer required for flow-through entities’(FTEs’) tax years beginning after June 30, 2016. Treasurywillno longersupport theprocessingofformsorwithholdingpayments for FTEs with tax years beginning after that date.ForFTEswith taxyearsbeginningbefore July1,2016,a fullyear’swithholdingpaymentsandannualreturnshouldbepaidandfiled.

PurposeTo calculate the Corporate Income Tax (CIT) for standardtaxpayers. Insurance companies should file the Insurance Company Annual Return for Michigan Corporate Income and Retaliatory Taxes (Form 4905) and Financial Institutionsshould file the CIT Annual Return for Financial Institutions (Form4908).

A standard taxpayer is an entity that is a C Corporation, anentitythathaselectedtobetaxedfederallyasaCCorporationfor the tax year, and a Unitary Business Group (UBG) thatincludesmembersthatareCCorporationsorentitiesthathaveelected to be taxed federally as a C Corporation for the taxyear.

Instructions for UBGsUnder the CIT, corporation means an entity that is a CCorporationorhaselectedtofilefederallyasaCCorporationfor the tax year. A taxpayer is a corporation, an insurancecompany,afinancialinstitution,oraUBGthatisliablefortax,interest,orpenalty.

A UBG is a group of United States persons that arecorporations, insurance companies, or financial institutions,otherthanaforeignoperatingentity,thatsatisfiesthefollowingcriteria:

• Control Test:Oneofthepersonsownsorcontrols,directlyorindirectly,morethan50percentoftheownershipinterestwithvotingrights(orrightscomparabletovotingrights)oftheothermembers;AND

• Relationship Test: The UBG has operations which resultinaflowofvaluebetween themembers in theUBGorhasoperations that are integrated with, are dependent upon, orcontribute to each other. Flow of value is determined byreviewingthetotalityoffactsandcircumstancesofbusinessactivitiesandoperations.

United States person is defined in the InternalRevenueCode(IRC)§7701(a)(30).

A foreign operating entitymeans aUnitedStates corporationthat would otherwise be a part of a UBG that is taxable inMichigan;hassubstantialoperationsoutsidetheUnitedStates,the District of Columbia, any territory or possession of theUnitedStatesexceptforthecommonwealthofPuertoRico,orapoliticalsubdivisionoftheforegoing;andatleast80percentof its income is active foreign business income as defined inIRC§871(l)(1)(B)(ii).

A UBG may alternatively be determined by making anAffiliated Group Election.

In Michigan, a UBG with members that are corporationsmust file Form 4891. A Designated Member (DM) must filethereturnonbehalfof thestandardmembersof thegroup.Ina brother-sister controlled group, anymember that has nexuswithMichiganmaybedesignatedtoserveasDM.Inaparent-

subsidiary controlled group or a combined controlled group(an interlocking combination of a parent-subsidiary groupand a brother-sister group), the controlling member mustserveasDMifithasnexuswithMichigan.Ifitdoesnothavenexus with Michigan, the controlling member may appointanymemberwithnexus toserveasDM.Whenfillingout theforms supporting this return, fields that require “taxpayer”information should be filled with the name and FederalEmployerIdentificationNumber(FEIN)oftheDM.

NOTE: A taxpayer that is a UBG must file a combinedreturnusing the taxyear of theDM.The combined returnofthe UBGmust include each tax year of eachmember whosetax year ends with or within the tax year of the DM. Forexample,TaxpayerABCisaUBGcomprisedofthreestandardmembers:Member A, the DMwith a calendar tax year, andMembers B and C with fiscal years ending March 31 andSeptember30,respectively.TaxpayerABC’staxyearisthatofitsDM.Forthisgroupin2013,thatannualreturnwillincludeMemberA’scalendaryearendingDecember31,2013, the taxyearofMemberBendingMarch31,2013,andthetaxyearofMemberCendingSeptember30,2013.

ThegrossreceiptsofaUBGisthesumofthegrossreceiptsofeachmemberincludedintheUBG,otherthanapersonsubjecttothetaxasaninsurancecompanyorfinancialinstitution,lessanygrossreceiptsarisingfromtransactionsbetweenmembersincluded in the UBG. Gross receipts of eachmember shouldreflecttheaccountingmethodthatmemberusedtocomputeitsfederaltaxableincome.

The business income of a UBG is the sum of the businessincome of each member included in the UBG, other than aperson subject to the taxas an insurancecompanyorfinancialinstitution, less any items of income and related deductionsarising from transactions (including dividends) betweenmembers included in the UBG. Business income of eachmembershouldreflecttheaccountingmethodthatmemberusestocomputeitsfederaltaxableincome.

Ingeneral,componentsusedtodeterminetaxliabilityrelatetothegroupas a single taxpayer,not to the individualmembersthat comprise the group. Exceptions to this general rule arenoted in instructions to the applicable forms. The group ofmemberson thecombined return is treatedas the taxpayer (adistinctentity)forpurposesoftheIncomeTaxAct.

Additional information can be found under the “CorporateIncome Tax” page at www.michigan.gov/taxes. RevenueAdministrative Bulletin (RAB) 2013-1, Unitary Business Group Control Test And Relationship Tests, isavailableunderthe“Reference”page.

Taxpayer CertificationA return filed by a UBG must be signed by an individualauthorized to sign on behalf of the DM. Provide a telephonenumber for that individual at the DM’s office. Treasury willonlydiscussthereturnwiththeauthorizedsigner.

The Affiliated Group ElectionThe affiliated group election allows a group of persons thatsatisfy thedefinitionof“affiliatedgroup,” (seebelow) toelectto be treated as a UBG under the CIT even if those personsdo not satisfy the relationship test of MCL 206.611(6). Therelationship test is discussed in the Instructions forUBGs onthisformandonlineatwww.michigan.gov/taxes.

The term “affiliated group” means that term as defined insection 1504 of the IRC except that 1) the term includesall United Statespersons that are corporations, insurancecompanies, or financial institutions, other than a foreignoperatingentity,and2)theentitieslistedin(1)arecommonlyowned,directlyorindirectly,byanymemberofsuchaffiliatedgroup and other members of which more than 50 percent ofthe ownership interests with voting rights or ownershipintereststhatconfercomparablerightstovotingrightsofthememberisdirectlyorindirectlyownedbyacommonownerorowners.

Ataxpayermakestheelectionbyaffirmativelyindicatingsoonthe annual return (see line 7b).The affiliated groupmembersare treated asmembers of aUBG for all purposes.However,the affiliated group electiondoes not affect the determinationoftheflow-throughentitieswithwhichthetaxpayerisunitaryfor apportionment purposes.Once an election is made, it is irrevocable and binding for the tax year plus the next 9 tax years.SeeMCL206.691(2)formoreinformation.

Purpose To reduce the adjusted business income (ABI) or shareholderallocatedincometoqualifyfortheSmallBusinessAlternativeCredit(SBAC)orminimizethereductionpercentagerequired.

If the ABI was less than zero in any of the five yearsimmediately preceding the tax year for which the credit isbeing claimed, and the taxpayer received an SBAC underthe Michigan Business Tax (MBT), or an SBAC under theCorporate IncomeTax (CIT) for that same year, the taxpayermay adjust for the loss before figuring eligibility for thecurrent year SBAC. Business income for credit purposes isadjusted by using available loss from prior years on a first-in, first-out basis until those losses are consumed (by use)or extinguished (by age). A loss adjustment will not affecta reduction to or elimination of the SBAC based on grossreceipts that exceed $19,000,000.Also, itwill not change theamountof compensation incolumnLon theCIT Schedule of Shareholders and Officers(Form4894).

To reduce theUBG’sABI disqualifier, the groupwill use itsavailable loss from a prior tax year when the UBG receivedthe SBAC, as well as a member’s available loss from a taxyearwhenitreceivedtheSBACandwasnotpartof theUBG(member’s separate year). However, the group may not useamember’s separately calculated available loss for a tax yearwhenthememberwaspartof theUBGunderMBTtoreducethegroup’sABIdisqualifier.

To reduce the UBG’s ABI disqualifier, available loss is usedon a first-in, first-out basis until those losses are consumed

PurposeThe purpose of this form is to identify every C Corporation(or entity taxed federally as such), insurance company, andfinancial institution that meets the Unitary Business Group(UBG) control test of MCL 206.611(6) or is a member ofa group for which the Affiliated Group Election of MCL206.691(2) isapplicablefor thetaxyearbut isnot includedonthestandardgroupreturnsupportedbythisform.

Line-by-Line InstructionsLines not listed are explained on the form.

For guidance on UBGs for the purpose of this form, seethe “Supplemental Instructions for Standard Members inUBGs” section in the Corporate Income Tax (CIT) Forms and Instructions for Standard Taxpayers (Form 4890)and the Michigan Department of Treasury Web site atwww.michigan.gov/taxes.

UBG means a group of United States persons that arecorporations, insurance companies, or financial institutions,other than a foreign operating entity, that satisfies the controltestandrelationshiptest.

The control test issatisfiedwhenoneof thepersonsownsorcontrols, directly or indirectly, more than 50 percent of theownership interestwithvoting rights (or rights comparable tovotingrights)oftheothermembers.

The relationship test is satisfied in one of two ways: TheUBG has operationswhich result in a flow of value betweenthemembersintheUBG,orhasoperationsthatareintegratedwith, are dependent upon, or contribute to each other. Flowof value is determined by reviewing the totality of facts andcircumstancesofbusinessactivitiesandoperations.

Ifeligible,aUBGmayalternativelybedeterminedbywayofanAffiliated Group Election (see instructions for Form4891fortheCITdefinitionofanaffiliatedgroup,andforeligibilityand other details about the election). The “greater than50% test” for the affiliated group may be different than thetraditionalcontroltestdiscussedabove,andtheaffiliatedgroupisdeterminedwithoutregardto therelationship testdiscussedabove.

The purpose of this form is to identify entities forwhich theownership test is satisfied, butwhich are not included on thecombined return supported by this form, either because therelationship test is not satisfied (which is not applicable toa UBG by affiliated group election) or because the entityis excluded by statute from the UBG or from the standardcombined return. A member whose business activity is notincluded in the current combined return because its tax yearends after the filing period of theUBG should also be listedhere.

Instructions for Form 4898Corporate Income Tax: Non-Unitary Relationships with Flow-Through Entities

PurposeThe purpose of this form is to gather information on thedistributiveshareofflow-through incomereceived throughoutthe tax year by taxpayers or members of a Unitary BusinessGroup (UBG) fromdirectlyor indirectlyownedflow-throughentities(FTEs)thatarenotunitarywiththetaxpayer,wheretheflow-through income received is included in the taxpayers’ orUBGmembers’federaltaxableincomefigure.

General InformationThis form is intended toonlybeusedbyaCorporate IncomeTax (CIT) taxpayer (or member of a UBG) to report thedistributive income it received from its interests inFTEs thatare not unitary with that taxpayer or UBG. This form mustbefiledbyany taxpayer thathas receivedadistributive shareof income fromanFTE that the taxpayer isnotunitarywith.If the taxpayer isaUBG, theneachmemberof theUBGthathas received a distributive share of income fromanFTE thattheUBGisnotunitarywithmustfilethisform.Ifmorespaceis needed, use additional copies of Form 4898. Repeat thetaxpayer’s and UBG member’s name and Federal EmployerIdentificationNumber(FEIN)(ifapplicable)atthetopofeverycopyofForm4898.

Flow-through entity means an entity that for the applicabletax year is treated as a subchapter S Corporation undersection1362(a)of theInternalRevenueCode(IRC),ageneralpartnership, a trust, a limited partnership, a limited liabilitypartnership, or a limited liability company, that for the taxyear is not taxed as a C Corporation for federal income taxpurposes.

A taxpayer is unitary with an FTE if the taxpayer:

• Owns or controls, directly or indirectly, more than 50%of the ownership interests with voting rights (or ownershipinterests thatconfercomparable rights tovoting rights)of theFTE;AND• The taxpayer and FTE have activities or operationswhichresultinaflowofvaluebetweenthetaxpayerandtheFTE,orbetween theFTEand anotherFTEunitarywith the taxpayer,orhasbusinessactivitiesoroperationsthatareintegratedwith,aredependantupon,orcontributetoeachother.

The determination of whether a taxpayer is unitary with anFTE ismade at the taxpayer level. If the taxpayer at issue isaUBG, the ownership requirementwill bemade at theUBGlevel.So, if the combinedownershipof theFTEby theUBGis greater than 50%, then the ownership requirement will besatisfied.

An FTE is not unitary with a taxpayerwheneitherofthetestsaboveisnotmet.

Public Act (PA) 266 of 2013PA 266 of 2013 authorizes an affiliated group election thatapplies an alternate test for finding a unitary relationshipbetween corporations. This act DID not create a

corresponding “affiliated group” test for finding a unitaryrelationshipbetweenacorporationandanFTE.TheexistenceofaunitaryrelationshipbetweenacorporationandanFTEisstillbasedexclusivelyonthetraditionaltwo-parttestdescribedabove.

Unitary Business Group means a group of United Statespersons that are C Corporations, insurance companies, orfinancial institutions, other than a foreignoperating entity, thatsatisfies thecontrol testandoneof two relationship tests. IfanAffiliated Group Election is made (see instructions for Form4891),theUBGalsoincludesallmembersoftheaffiliatedgroup,asdefined in IRC1504except that thegroup includesonlyUSpersons (no foreign persons or foreign operating entities) thatare corporations, financial institutions or insurance companiesthatsatisfythecontroltestandhavemadetheelectiontofileasaUBG.Oncetheelectionismade,theAffiliatedGroupistreatedasaUBGforallpurposes.See theGeneral Instructions in theCIT Forms and Instructions for Standard Taxpayers (Form4890)formoreinformationonUBGs.

Public Act 233 of 2013Public Act 233 of 2013 provides that, in the case of an FTE that made the election to remain taxable under the MBT, each member of the FTE that does not file as a member of a UBG with the FTE shall disregard all items attributable to that member’s ownership interest in the electing FTE for all purposes of the CIT. If the taxpayer owns an interest in an FTE that files an MBT return for a tax year that ends with or within this taxpayer’s tax year, the taxpayer’s distributive share of income (loss) from such FTE will be exempt from the taxpayer’s corporate income tax base. Report distributive income (loss) exempt under 2013 PA 233 in column C, then leave Columns D and E blank.

Tiered Entities: In the event of a tiered entity, enter in thiscolumnthedistributivesharereceivedfromanon-unitaryFTEinwhichthetaxpayerhasanindirectownershipinterest.Whencomputing the distributive share of income received from thenon-unitaryFTEinwhichthetaxpayerhasadirectownershipinterest,onlyenterthedirectincomeofthatFTE.ThisisdonebysubtractinganydistributivesharesofincomethatthisFTEreceivedfromanotherFTE.

Example: C Corporation 1 owns 50% of FTE B and FTEB owns 40% of FTE A. FTE B received from FTE A adistributive share of income of $20,000. C Corporation1 received from FTE B a distributive share of income of$100,000.OnthelinecorrespondingtoFTEA,CCorporation1 would enter $10,000. This is the indirect distributive sharethatCCorporation1receivedfromFTEAandiscalculatedbymultiplyingCCorporation1’sownershipinterestinFTEBbythedistributiveshareFTEBreceivedfromFTEA:

On the line corresponding to FTEB,CCorporation 1wouldenter $90,000. This is the distributive share C Corporation 1receivedfromFTEBlessthedistributiveshareCCorporation1receivedfromFTEA:

$100,000-$10,000=$90,000

NOTE: The sum of the amount in every line on column C(plus,inthecaseofaUBG,thesumofcolumnCforallotherUBGmembers that filed this form) should equal the amountreportedonForm4891,line27.

Column D: Enter in this column the non-unitary FTE’sapportionment percentage. The non-unitary FTE’sapportionment percentage is the FTE’s sales factor. Thesales factor is a fraction, the numerator of which is the totalsales of the FTE in this state during the tax year and thedenominatorofwhichisthetotalsalesoftheFTEeverywhereduring the tax year. Formore information on what is a sale,see the instructions for Form 4891. Use the information in

the “Sourcing ofSales toMichigan” section ofForm4890 todetermineMichigan sales.Enter this amount as apercentage,carrying it out 4 digits to the right of the decimal point (i.e.12.3456).Do not enter the percent symbol (%).

Unitary Relationships with Flow-Through Entities

PurposeToassist incalculatingtheapportionmentfactorofataxpayerthatisunitarywithoneormoreflow-throughentities(FTEs).

General InstructionsThis form is intended toonlybeusedbyaCorporate IncomeTax (CIT) taxpayer that is unitary with one or more FTEs.Included in this formwill be FTEs that are unitary with thetaxpayerandwhose taxyearendswithorwithin the taxyearincludedonthetaxpayer’sCIT Annual Return(Form4891).

AtaxpayerisunitarywithanFTEifthetaxpayer:

• Ownsor controls, directlyor indirectly,more than50%ofthe ownership interests with voting rights (or ownershipinterests that confer comparable rights to voting rights) oftheFTE;AND

• The taxpayer and FTE have activities or operationswhichresultinaflowofvaluebetweenthetaxpayerandtheFTE,or between the FTE and another FTE unitary with thetaxpayer, or has business activities or operations that areintegratedwith, are dependant upon, or contribute to eachother.

The determination of whether a taxpayer is unitary with aFTE ismade at the taxpayer level. If the taxpayer at issue isaUnitaryBusinessGroup (UBG), theownership requirementwill be made at the UBG level. Thus, if the combinedownership of theFTEby theUBG is greater than 50%, thentheownershiprequirementwillbesatisfied.

NOTE: PA 266 of 2013 authorizes an affiliated groupelection that applies an alternate test for finding a unitaryrelationship between corporations. This actDID not createa corresponding “affiliated group” test for finding a unitaryrelationshipbetweenacorporationandanFTE.TheexistenceofaunitaryrelationshipbetweenacorporationandanFTEisstillbasedexclusivelyonthetraditionaltwo-parttestdescribedabove.

NOTE: A sale of qualifying property reported on theinstallment method for federal income tax purposes causesa recapturebasedupon the entire sale price in theyear of thesale.The recapture is reducedby anygain reported in federaltaxableincome(asdefinedforMBTpurposes)intheyearofthesale.Thegainattributabletotheinstallmentsalethatisreportedin subsequentyears increases thecreditbase (or reducesothersourcesof recapture) for thoseyears, andmustbe reportedoncolumn C of the appropriateWorksheet based on the type ofasset.

UBGs: The recapture of capital investments for UBGs iscalculated on combined assets of standard members of theUBG. Assets transferred between members of the group arenot a capital investment in qualifying assets for purposesof calculating this credit or its recapture. Disposing of ortransferring an asset outside of the UBG triggers recapture.Also,moving an asset outside ofMichigan creates recapture,evenifthetransferistoamemberoftheUBG.

Example: In 2008, group ABC files MBT return claiming$1,000,000 in SBT ITC carryforward. The group consistedof Company 1, Company 2, Company 3, and Company 4.Company 4’s tax year ended after the tax year of the group’sDesignated Member, so Company 4’s data was not includedin group ABC’s 2008 MBT return, even though Company4 was part of the UBG. The total $1,000,000 in SBT ITCcarryforward resulted from the sum of $200,000 in SBT ITCcarryforward from Company 1, $300,000 from Company 2,and$500,000fromCompany3.Inthecurrentyear,companies2, 3 and 4 dispose of capital investment outside of the group,which triggers SBT ITC recapture.

○ The CIT Unitary Business Group Combined Filing Schedule for Financial Institutions (Form 4910) supportsa combined return of financial institutionmembers to befiledon theCIT Annual Return for Financial Institutions (Form4908).

Guidance that is specific toonlyone form iscontained in theinstructions for that form, in sections titled either “SpecialInstructionsforUnitaryBusinessGroups”orsimply“UBGs.”With the exception of a section providing supplementalinstructions for the Corporate Income Tax Loss Adjustment for the Small Business Alternative Credit (Form 4895), thefollowingareinstructionsthatapplytomorethanoneform.

Special Instructions and the Designated MemberSpecial Instructions for the Annual ReturnBydefinition,aUBGcanincludestandardmembers,insurancecompanies, and financial institutions. However, in somecases not all members of the UBG will be included on thesame return. All standard members in a UBG (except thoseownedbyandunitarywithafinancial institution)fileasinglecombinedreturnonForm4891.Financial institutionmembersof a UBG (and any standard member owned by and unitarywithafinancialinstitutioninthegroup)fileacombinedreturnon Form 4908. Insurance companymembers of a UBG eachfileseparatelyonForm4905.

Before completing a combined return, UBGs should firstcomplete Forms 4896 and 4897 or Form 4910. These formsare used to gather data from each member included inthe combined filing schedule and eliminate intercompanytransactions where applicable, to support the primary return.Insurance companies that are part of a UBG will each filea separate Form 4905, but should be listed as an excludedaffiliatewithanincompatible taxbaseonForm4896orForm4910,asapplicable,iftheyareunitarywithastandardtaxpayerorafinancialinstitution.

The Designated Member (DM)AUBG combined return of standardmembers is filed underthenameandFederalEmployerIdentificationNumber(FEIN)or Michigan Treasury (TR) assigned number of the DM ofthe standard member group. Designated Member means aUBGmember that has nexuswithMichigan andwill file thecombined CIT return on behalf of the standard members ofthe group. In a brother-sister controlled group, any memberwith nexus may be designated to serve as DM. In a parent-subsidiarycontrolledgrouporacombinedcontrolledgroup(aninterlocking combination of a parent-subsidiary group and abrother-sistergroup),thecontrollingmembermustserveasDMif it has nexuswithMichigan.

Special Instructions for Supporting FormsMostformsarecompletedbyUBGsonagroupbasis.However,the following three forms must be completed with entity-specificdata,ratherthangroupwidedata:

• CIT Schedule of Shareholders and Officers(Form4894)• CIT Loss Adjustment for the Small Business Alternative Credit (Form4895). (In some circumstances, a separate copyofForm4895alsoiscompletedwithgroupwidedata.)• CIT Data on UBG Members(Form4897).

If more than one member completes one of these forms,multiple copies of that formmust be included in the group’scombinedreturn.

The available amount of the Small BusinessAlternative TaxCredit is taken against the entire group’s taxliability. Additional UBG instructions are provided on formswheretheSmallBusinessAlternativeCreditiscalculated.

If the UBG is comprised of both standard members andfinancial institutions, two copies of supporting formswill becompleted (one group of supporting forms for the standardmembers’annualreturnandonegroupofsupportingformsforthefinancialinstitutions’annualreturn).

Effects of Members Leaving a GroupWhen a member of a UBG ceases to be a member partway through the member’s tax year, for CIT purposes thedepartingmemberwill experience a short taxyear endingonthedeparturedate, even if it doesnothavea shortperiod forfederalpurposes.

ForboththeUBGreturnandthedepartingmember’sseparateshort period return, tax baseswill be calculated using actualnumbers from the applicable short period of the departingmember.
