1. If a taxpayer:
(a) Is unable to collect all or part of an admission charge or charge for live entertainment provided by an escort, which was included in the taxable receipts reported for a previous reporting period; and
(b) Has taken a deduction on his or her federal income tax return pursuant to 26 U.S.C. § 166(a) for the amount which the taxpayer is unable to collect,
the taxpayer is entitled to receive a credit for the amount of tax paid on account of that uncollected amount. The credit may be used against the amount of tax that the taxpayer is subsequently required to pay pursuant to this chapter.
2. If the Internal Revenue Service disallows a deduction described in paragraph (b) of subsection 1 and the taxpayer claimed a credit on a return for a previous reporting period pursuant to subsection 1, the taxpayer shall include the amount of that credit in the amount of taxes reported pursuant to this chapter in the first return filed with the Board or the Department after the deduction is disallowed.
3. If a taxpayer collects all or part of an admission charge or charge for live entertainment provided by an escort, for which the taxpayer claimed a credit on a return for a previous reporting period pursuant to subsection 2, the taxpayer shall include:
(a) The amount collected in the charges reported pursuant to paragraph (a) of subsection 1; and
(b) The tax payable on the amount collected in the amount of taxes reported,
in the first return filed with the Board or the Department after that collection.
4. Except as otherwise provided in subsection 5, upon determining that a taxpayer has filed a return which contains one or more violations of the provisions of this section, the Board or the Department shall:
(a) For the first return of any taxpayer that contains one or more violations, issue a letter of warning to the taxpayer which provides an explanation of the violation or violations contained in the return.
(b) For the first or second return, other than a return described in paragraph (a), in any calendar year which contains one or more violations, assess a penalty equal to the amount of the tax which was not reported.
(c) For the third and each subsequent return in any calendar year which contains one or more violations, assess a penalty of three times the amount of the tax which was not reported.
5. For the purposes of subsection 4, if the first violation of this section by any taxpayer was determined by the Board or the Department through an audit which covered more than one return of the taxpayer, the Board or the Department shall treat all returns which were determined through the same audit to contain a violation or violations in the manner provided in paragraph (a) of subsection 4.
