Why is this schedule necessary in addition to your tax form? Effective January 1, 2008, RCW 35.102.130 requires a two-factor formula to determine how income
taxable under the City’s Service and Other gross receipts B&O tax classification is apportioned between multiple locations when a taxpayer is engaging in business in
more than one jurisdiction.
Who should complete the apportionment schedule? Only those taxpayers that earn gross receipts from activities subject to a City’s Service and Other gross receipts
B&O tax classification, and which have a taxable presence in more than one jurisdiction, need to complete the schedule.
Formula example:
Service and Other income is apportioned to a city by multiplying service income by a payroll factor (based on the payroll within the city), plus the service income
factor (based on the income producing activity attributable for tax purposes within the city), divided by two (2).

*If a business has no employees in any location, such as a sole proprietorship without any employees, then the payroll factor is zero and the apportionment reverts to
a single factor formula using the service factor only. In this case, divide the service Factor by one (1).
