Bill Summary

End Big Oil Tax Subsidies Act of 2013

AI Summary

This bill, titled the "End Big Oil Tax Subsidies Act of 2013," aims to eliminate certain tax benefits for large oil companies. It proposes to redefine "major integrated oil company" to include "covered large oil company," which encompasses major integrated oil companies and any taxpayer with gross receipts exceeding $50,000,000, effectively broadening the scope of companies affected by these changes. The bill also seeks to remove tax credits and deductions related to producing oil and gas from marginal wells, enhanced oil recovery, intangible drilling and development costs, percentage depletion, and tertiary injectants, specifically for companies that are not "small, independent oil and gas companies." Additionally, it prohibits major integrated oil companies from using the last-in, first-out (LIFO) accounting method for inventory and modifies foreign tax credit rules for "dual capacity taxpayers," which are entities subject to foreign levies while also receiving specific economic benefits from that foreign country. These changes are generally set to take effect for taxable years beginning after December 31, 2013.
