Service controversies • Less “Income-producing activity” controversies • No more COP interpretation issues

Market-State for Services- Economic Development Perspective - Pros Cons Certain in-State companies may prefer COP – Cliff if results in -0- tax May cause some out-of-state service providers to not make services available to in-State customers No tax penalty for having jobs and capital investment in the taxing State Puts emphasis on exporting services (and importing revenue) using in-State employees and capital investment
