7 "Section 5. The Use Tax Act is amended by changing 3-10

9 (35 ILCS 105/3-10) (from Ch. 120, par. 439.3-10)
10 Sec. 3-10. Rate of tax. Unless otherwise provided in
11 this Section, the tax imposed by this Act is at the rate of
12 6.25% of either the selling price or the fair market value,
13 if any, of the tangible personal property. In all cases
14 where property functionally used or consumed is the same as
15 the property that was purchased at retail, then the tax is
16 imposed on the selling price of the property. In all cases
17 where property functionally used or consumed is a by-product
18 or waste product that has been refined, manufactured, or
19 produced from property purchased at retail, then the tax is
20 imposed on the lower of the fair market value, if any, of the
21 specific property so used in this State or on the selling
-2- LRB9207741SMdvam01
1 price of the property purchased at retail. For purposes of
2 this Section "fair market value" means the price at which
3 property would change hands between a willing buyer and a
4 willing seller, neither being under any compulsion to buy or
5 sell and both having reasonable knowledge of the relevant
6 facts. The fair market value shall be established by Illinois
7 sales by the taxpayer of the same property as that
8 functionally used or consumed, or if there are no such sales
9 by the taxpayer, then comparable sales or purchases of
10 property of like kind and character in Illinois.
11 Beginning on July 1, 2000 and through December 31, 2000,
12 with respect to motor fuel, as defined in Section 1.1 of the
