Iowa Admin. Code r. 701-288.15
A person who gives away or donates tangible personal property, specified digital products, or taxable services shall be deemed to be a consumer of such property, products, or services for tax purposes. The sales price from the sale of tangible personal property, specified digital products, or taxable services to such persons for such purposes shall be subject to tax.
When a retailer purchases tangible personal property, a specified digital product, or a taxable service, exclusive of tax, for the purpose of resale in the regular course of business and later gives it away or donates it, the retailer shall include in the return the value of the property, product, or service at the retailer's cost price.
When a retailer sells tangible personal property, specified digital products, or taxable services and furnishes a premium with the property, product, or service sold, the retailer is considered to be the ultimate consumer or user of the premium furnished.
This rule is intended to implement Iowa Code sections 423.1 and 423.2.
