(a)

Except as otherwise provided in this section, if two or more corporations subject to taxation under this chapter are members of the same affiliated group making a consolidated federal return and are members of the same unitary group, they shall file a consolidated state return.

(b)

If any corporation that is a member of an affiliated group is permitted or required to determine its Oregon taxable income on a separate basis under ORS 314.667 (Additional methods to determine extent of business activity in this state), or if any corporation is permitted or required by statute or rule to use different apportionment factors than a corporation with which it is affiliated, the corporation may not be included in a consolidated state return under paragraph (a) of this subsection.

(c)

Whenever two or more corporations are required to file a consolidated state return under paragraph (a) of this subsection, any reference in this chapter to a corporation for purposes of deriving Oregon taxable income shall be treated as a reference to all corporations that are included in the consolidated state return.

(d)

A corporation that would not be a member of an affiliated group filing a consolidated state return based solely on the application of section 1504(b)(4) of the Internal Revenue Code must be included in the consolidated state return filed by the affiliated group.

(6)

If so directed by the department, by rule or instructions on the state tax return form, every corporation required to make a return under this chapter shall also file with the return a true copy of the corporation’s federal income tax return for the same taxable year. For purposes of this subsection, the corporation’s federal income tax return includes a consolidated federal return for an affiliated group of which the corporation is a member. The department may, by rule or instructions, permit a corporation to submit specified excerpts from its federal return in lieu of submitting a copy of the entire federal return. The federal return or any part thereof required to be filed with the state return is incorporated in and shall be a part of the state return.
