Sec. 3. RCW 82.04.460 and 1985 c 7 s 154 are each amended to read as follows:

(1) Any person rendering services taxable under RCW 82.04.290 and maintaining places of business both within and without this state which contribute to the rendition of such services shall, for the purpose of computing tax liability under RCW 82.04.290, apportion to this state that portion of his gross income which is derived from services rendered within this state. Where such apportionment cannot be accurately made by separate accounting methods, the taxpayer shall apportion to this state that proportion of his total income which the cost of doing business within the state bears to the total cost of doing business both within and without the state.

(2) Notwithstanding the provision of subsection (1) of this section, persons doing business both within and without the state who receive gross income from service charges, as defined in RCW 63.14.010 (relating to amounts charged for granting the right or privilege to make deferred or installment payments) or who receive gross income from engaging in business as financial institutions within the scope of chapter 82.14A RCW (relating to city taxes on financial institutions) shall apportion or allocate gross income taxable under RCW 82.04.290 to this state pursuant to rules promulgated by the department consistent with uniform rules for apportionment or allocation developed by the states.

(3) The department shall by rule provide a method or methods of apportioning or allocating gross income derived from sales of telephone services taxed under this chapter or services defined as a retail sale under RCW 82.04.050(4), if the gross proceeds of sales subject to tax under this chapter do not fairly represent the extent of the taxpayer's income attributable to this state. The rules shall be, so far as feasible, consistent with the methods of apportionment contained in this section and shall require the consideration of those facts, circumstances, and apportionment factors as will result in an equitable and constitutionally permissible division of the services.

NEW SECTION. Sec. 4. A new section is added to chapter 82.08 RCW to read as follows:

(1) A seller shall collect the retail sales tax on all sales of services defined as retail sales under RCW 82.04.050(4) unless the buyer provides the seller with a multistate use certificate. A buyer shall not provide a multistate use certificate if the service relates to or affects only a location, market, property, or individual in this state.

(2) The department shall adopt rules providing the form and information required to be on multistate use certificates. The department shall establish by rule evidence by which a buyer may demonstrate that the criteria in subsection (1) of this section apply.

(3) If a transaction involves both a service for which tax is collectible under this section, and a service for which tax is not collectible under this section, the charges shall be separately identified and stated with respect to the collectible and noncollectible portions of the transaction. Failure to separately state the charges creates a presumption that tax is collectible upon the entire transaction under this section.

(4) If the seller does not collect tax under this section, the buyer shall remit any tax due with the buyer's next regularly scheduled return.

Sec. 5. RCW 82.12.010 and 2001 c 188 s 3 are each amended to read as follows:

For the purposes of this chapter:

The term includes, in addition to the consideration paid or given or contracted to be paid or given, the amount of any tariff or duty paid with respect to the importation of the article used. In case the article used is acquired by lease or by gift or is extracted, produced, or manufactured by the person using the same or is sold under conditions wherein the purchase price does not represent the true value thereof, the value of the article used shall be determined as nearly as possible according to the retail selling price at place of use of similar products of like quality and character under such rules as the department of revenue may prescribe.

(b) In case the articles used are acquired by bailment, the value of the use of the articles so used shall be in an amount representing a reasonable rental for the use of the articles so bailed, determined as nearly as possible according to the value of such use at the places of use of similar products of like quality and character under such rules as the department of revenue may prescribe. In case any such articles of tangible personal property are used in respect to the construction, repairing, decorating, or improving of, and which become or are to become an ingredient or component of, new or existing buildings or other structures under, upon, or above real property of or for the United States, any instrumentality thereof, or a county or city housing authority created pursuant to chapter 35.82 RCW, including the installing or attaching of any such articles therein or thereto, whether or not such personal property becomes a part of the realty by virtue of installation, then the value of the use of such articles so used shall be determined according to the retail selling price of such articles, or in the absence of such a selling price, as nearly as possible according to the retail selling price at place of use of similar products of like quality and character or, in the absence of either of these selling price measures, such value may be determined upon a cost basis, in any event under such rules as the department of revenue may prescribe.

(c) In the case of articles owned by a user engaged in business outside the state which are brought into the state for no more than one hundred eighty days in any period of three hundred sixty-five consecutive days and which are temporarily used for business purposes by the person in this state, the value of the article used shall be an amount representing a reasonable rental for the use of the articles, unless the person has paid tax under this chapter or chapter 82.08 RCW upon the full value of the article used, as defined in (a) of this subsection.

(d) In the case of articles manufactured or produced by the user and used in the manufacture or production of products sold or to be sold to the department of defense of the United States, the value of the articles used shall be determined according to the value of the ingredients of such articles.

(e) In the case of an article manufactured or produced for purposes of serving as a prototype for the development of a new or improved product, the value of the article used shall be determined by: (i) The retail selling price of such new or improved product when first offered for sale; or (ii) the value of materials incorporated into the prototype in cases in which the new or improved product is not offered for sale.

(f) In the case of an article purchased with a direct pay permit under RCW 82.32.087, the value of the article used shall be determined by the retail selling price, as defined in RCW 82.08.010, of such article if but for the use of the direct pay permit the transaction would have been subject to sales tax;

(2) "Value of the service used" means the consideration, whether money, credit, rights, or other property, expressed in terms of money, paid or given or contracted to be paid or given by the purchaser to the seller for the service, the use of which is taxable under this chapter. If the service is received by gift or under conditions wherein the purchase price does not represent the true value of the service, the value of the service used shall be determined as nearly as possible according to the selling price at the place of use of similar services under rules prescribed by the department of revenue;

(3) "Use," "used," "using," or "put to use" shall have their ordinary meaning, and shall mean:

(a) With respect to tangible personal property, the first act within this state by which the taxpayer takes or assumes dominion or control over the article of tangible personal property (as a consumer), and include installation, storage, withdrawal from storage, or any other act preparatory to subsequent actual use or consumption within this state; and

(b) With respect to a service defined as a retail sale under RCW 82.04.050(4), the receipt by the taxpayer of any part of the benefit afforded the service;

((~~(5)~~)) (6) The meaning ascribed to words and phrases in chapters 82.04 and 82.08 RCW, insofar as applicable, shall have full force and effect with respect to taxes imposed under the provisions of this chapter.

(4) The tax shall be levied and collected in an amount equal to the value of the article used by the taxpayer multiplied by the rate in effect for the retail sales tax under RCW 82.08.020.

The taxpayer's sales, property, and payroll factors shall be calculated as provided in RCW 82.56.010, except the department may alter the components of the apportionment factors by rule to be consistent with uniform rules for apportionment or allocation developed by the states for particular industries.

(3) The department shall provide by rule for the time and manner of recalculating the apportionment formula. The apportionment factor shall not be required to be recalculated more often than annually.
