  143.121.  Missouri adjusted gross income. — 1. The Missouri adjusted gross income of a resident individual shall be his federal adjusted gross income subject to the modifications in this section.

  2. There shall be added to his federal adjusted gross income:

  (a) The amount of any federal income tax refund received for a prior year which resulted in a Missouri income tax benefit;

  (b) Interest on certain governmental obligations excluded from federal gross income by Section 103 of the Internal Revenue Code. The previous sentence shall not apply to interest on obligations of the state of Missouri or any of its political subdivisions or authorities and shall not apply to the interest described in subdivision (a) of subsection 3 of this section. The amount added under this paragraph shall be reduced by the amounts applicable to such interest that would have been deductible in computing the taxable income of the taxpayer except only for the application of Section 265 of the Internal Revenue Code. The reduction shall only be made if it is at least five hundred dollars;

  (c) The amount of any deduction that is included in the computation of federal taxable income under Section 168 of the Internal Revenue Code as amended by the Job Creation and Worker Assistance Act of 2002 to the extent the amount deducted relates to property purchased on or after July 1, 2002, but before July 1, 2003, and to the extent the amount deducted exceeds the amount that would have been deductible under Section 168 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 as in effect on January 1, 2002; and

  (d) The amount of any deduction that is included in the computation of federal taxable income for net operating loss allowed by Section 172 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, except for any deduction for net operating loss the taxpayer claims in the tax year in which the net operating loss occurred or carries forward for a period not to exceed twenty years and carries backward for not more than two years.

  3. There shall be subtracted from his federal adjusted gross income the following amounts to the extent included in federal adjusted gross income:

  (a) Interest or dividends on obligations of the United States and its territories and possessions or of any authority, commission or instrumentality of the United States to the extent exempt from Missouri income taxes under the laws of the United States. The amount subtracted under this paragraph shall be reduced by any interest on indebtedness incurred to carry the described obligations or securities and by any expenses incurred in the production of interest or dividend income described in this paragraph. The reduction in the previous sentence shall only apply to the extent that such expenses including amortizable bond premiums are deducted in determining his federal adjusted gross income or included in his Missouri itemized deduction. The reduction shall only be made if the expenses total at least five hundred dollars;

  (b) The portion of any gain, from the sale or other disposition of property having a higher adjusted basis to the taxpayer for Missouri income tax purposes than for federal income tax purposes on December 31, 1972, that does not exceed such difference in basis. If a gain is considered a long-term capital gain for federal income tax purposes, the modification shall be limited to one-half of such portion of the gain;

  (c) The amount necessary to prevent the taxation under sections 143.011 to 143.996 of any annuity or other amount of income or gain which was properly included in income or gain and was taxed under the laws of Missouri for a taxable year prior to January 1, 1973, to the taxpayer, or to a decedent by reason of whose death the taxpayer acquired the right to receive the income or gain, or to a trust or estate from which the taxpayer received the income or gain;

  (d) Accumulation distributions received by a taxpayer as a beneficiary of a trust to the extent that the same are included in federal adjusted gross income;

  (e) The amount of any state income tax refund for a prior year which was included in the federal adjusted gross income;

  (f) The portion of capital gain specified in subsection 3 of section 144.747, RSMo, that would otherwise be included in federal adjusted gross income; and
