Kentucky Form 750 serves as the official tax return specifically designed for Business Development Corporations authorized under Chapter 155 of the Kentucky Revised Statutes. This form calculates the corporation’s tax liability using book income as the basis for taxable net income, rather than requiring federal tax adjustments or special treatments typically needed for other corporate returns. Corporations filing this return pay the determined tax amount in full when submitting, and this payment substitutes for both the standard state income tax under KRS 141.040 and the additional tax under KRS 141.0401. The form captures gross income and deductions exactly as maintained in the corporation’s regular accounting records, excluding only income specifically exempted by the Kentucky Constitution or U.S. Constitution and laws. Detailed schedules support calculations for cost of goods sold, officer compensation, depreciation, bad debts, balance sheets, and earned surplus analysis, ensuring comprehensive reporting of the corporation’s financial position and tax obligations. This specialized return must be filed by June 1 following the calendar year-end, with payments made payable to the Kentucky State Treasurer and sent to the Department of Revenue in Frankfort.
