Section 92-19-3c - Repossessed goods

(a) Each retailer that repossesses goods that were the basis of a bad debt allowance under K.A.R. 92-19-3b, and each financial institution that repossesses goods, shall account for the repossessed goods in accordance with this regulation.

(b) The recovery of goods being repossessed and the transfer of title to the goods from the debtor to the retailer or financial institution are not retail sales and shall not be taxed.

(c) When repossessed goods are resold by a retailer at retail, the receipts from the sale shall be reported as part of the retailer's gross receipts. When repossessed goods are resold by a retailer as a sale for resale, a retailer that previously claimed a bad debt allowance on the goods shall account for the receipts as an allowance recovery in accordance with K.A.R. 92-19-3b(f).

(d) When goods are repossessed by a financial institution, the resale of the goods by the financial institution and the transfer of title to the buyer shall be treated as nontaxable isolated or occasional sales.

(e) When a debtor satisfies the underlying debt after goods are repossessed, the return of goods and the transfer of title to the goods to the debtor are not retail sales and shall not be taxed. A retailer that previously claimed a bad debt allowance on the goods shall report the taxable gross receipts that are included in the payment from the debtor in accordance with K.A.R. 92-19-3b(f).

(f) When a retailer or financial institution uses repossessed goods other than for retention, demonstration, or display while holding the goods for resale in the regular course of business, the retailer or financial institution shall accrue sales tax on its use of the repossessed goods as the rental of the goods.
