42.22.1311 INDUSTRIAL MACHINERY AND EQUIPMENT TREND FACTORS (1) Trend factors will be used to value industrial machinery and equipment for ad valorem tax purposes pursuant to ARM 42.22.1306. The department uses annual cost indexes from the Marshall & Swift Guide described in ARM 42.21.155. The current index is divided by the annual index for each year to arrive at a trending factor. Each major industry has its own trend table. Where no index exists in the Marshall & Swift Guide for an industry, that industry is grouped with other industries using similar equipment. The department will utilize the trend table and life expectancy indicated in the industry table below.

Note: 1. Lab equipment is included in its related industry's table at ten-year life expectancy.
(2) Tables 1 through 32 represent the yearly trend factors for each industry.
(*) Equipment remains taxable at the level of the final year of life expectancy until its disposal.
(3) Mining machinery and equipment is engaged in the extraction, excavation, burrowing, or otherwise freeing raw material from the earth. Mobile mining equipment moves under its own power or on its own wheels and chassis, including any attachments used with or attached to such equipment, but does not include equipment that requires a foundation for the performance of the function for which it was designed and built. Mobile mining equipment used for extraction is valued by using the procedures established for heavy equipment found in ARM 42.21.154 and 42.21.155. (4) This rule is effective for tax years beginning after December 31, 2018.
