Tax Wins and Loses on Appeal
Arkansas Supreme Court reverses a Pulaski Chancery ruling allowing Tyson Foods to recover protested sales taxes on water feed additives for poultry. The court doubts the additives are feedstuffs and says Tyson failed to prove the exemption. other items claimed as exemptions were not integral to products. The ruling also upholds dismissal of another state suit to recover use taxes from Construction Helicopters Inc, for a $700,000 helicopter used on a $10,000 contract, citing improper allegations and constitutional issues for taxing a nonresident contractor.
