This report assesses eight tax provisions, including five General Excise Tax (GET) exemptions, one Use Tax exemption, and two Use Tax exclusions. Section 23-71 et seq., Hawai‘i Revised Statutes, requires the Auditor to review different tax exemptions, exclusions, and credits annually, on a 10-year recurring cycle.

With respect to two GET exemptions and one Use Tax exemption, we are unable to determine whether they achieve their purposes. As we explain in the report, making conclusions as to whether purposes are being met is challenging when amounts claimed are not tracked or where no purpose achievement benchmarks or metrics are statutorily set forth.
