BOE-600-R (BACK) REV. 7 (11-99)
INSTRUCTIONS
All leased or rented equipment (personal property or fixtures) in the possession of the assessee must be reported.
•
Capitalized leased property should be reported in the same manner as owned property, using the Form BOE-517 schedules.
•
Noncapitalized leased or rented rolling stock, roadway machines and equipment without fixed location must be reported on the separate STATEMENT OF LEASED
ROLLING STOCK. (See “Instructions for Reporting State-Assessed Property, Part IIE”, page 3.)
•
For all other rented or leased equipment not capitalized, if you (the lessee) are obligated to pay the property taxes or there is no written understanding that the lessor
is obligated to pay the property taxes, report the equipment on BOE-600-R. If the lessor is obligated by written terms of the lease to pay the property taxes, report the
equipment on Form BOE-600-B unless other specific instructions require the equipment to be reported elsewhere.
Property leased from an entity described in Revenue and Taxation Code section 235 (financial corporation) must be reported on California State Board of Equalization
Form BOE-600-R notwithstanding the terms of the lease with respect to payment of the property taxes. Property that is industry specific (e.g., locomotives, freight cars,
etc.) must also be reported on BOE-600-R, notwithstanding the terms of the lease or written understanding between state assessee and lessor. This property will be
assessed to the State Board of Equalization assessee.
Enter the assessee’s name as shown on Form BOE-517, the three- or four-digit SBE number, the county name, and the lien date year.
If there is no equipment to be reported on this form, either return this form marked “NONE” in the “Description of Equipment...” column or mark the “N/A” box on the front of Form
BOE-517 indicating nothing to be reported.
If there is equipment to be reported, a separate schedule must be filed for each California county in which equipment is located. Make copies of this form as needed.
All property reported on this form must also be reported on the Tangible Property List (TPL).
