required for those forms not returned.
You have the option of substituting for Financial Schedules A to E inclusive, copies of schedules of corresponding information as
filed in your annual report required by the California Public Utilities Commission or Federal Energy Regulatory Commission for the
corresponding period; provided, however, that information regarding depreciation and taxes shall be furnished as called for in the
schedules.
Report book cost (100 percent of actual cost). Include excise, sales and use taxes (see instructions below for important use tax
information), freight-in, installation charges, finance charges during construction, and all other relevant costs required to place the
property in service. Do not reduce costs for depreciation (which must be reported separately). Report separately the details of any

estimating fair market value.
Note: All replacement cost studies, obsolescence requests, and other voluntary information that assessees believe affect the value
of their property must be filed with the property statement or by a date granted by a formal extension. If such information is not
filed by that date, staff is not required to consider it in determining its unitary value recommendation.
USE TAX INFORMATION
California use tax is imposed on consumers of tangible personal property that is used, consumed, given away or stored in this
state. Businesses must report and pay use tax on items purchased from out-of-state vendors not required to collect California
tax on their sales. If your business is not required to have a seller’s permit with the BOE, the use tax may be reported and paid
on your California State Income Tax Return or choose to report and pay use tax directly to the BOE. Simply use electronic
registration (eReg) at to report and pay the tax due. Obtain additional use tax
information by calling the Taxpayer Information Section at 1-800-400-7115 (TTY:711).
