CORPORATION INCOME/LIMITED LIABILITY ENTITY ESTIMATED TAX VOUCHER
Who Must File—Every entity subject to the corporation income tax under KRS 141.040 and/or the limited liability entity tax under
KRS 141.0401 shall make a declaration of estimated tax and must pay installments if the taxes imposed by KRS 141.040 and/or
KRS 141.0401 for the taxable year can reasonably be expected to exceed $5,000. Failure to pay estimated tax installments equal
to the amount determined by fi rst subtracting $5,000 from 70 percent of the total tax due under KRS 141.040 and computed by the
taxpayer on the return fi led for the tax year will result in the assessment of an underpayment penalty. The amount of the penalty
is 10 percent of the amount of the underpayment, but not less than $25. Entities whose prior year combined tax liability is less
than or equal to $25,000 can make estimated tax installments equal to its prior year tax less $5,000 and avoid the underpayment
penalty. KRS 141.042, KRS 141.044(1) and KRS 141.990
