30.23 	verifiable standards the portions of the price that are attributable to the distinct and separately 
30.24 	identifiable products, then the products are not considered part of a bundled transaction. 
30.25 	For purposes of this paragraph:
30.26 	(1) the books and records maintained by the seller must be maintained in the regular 
30.27 	course of business, and do not include books and records created and maintained by the 
30.28 	seller primarily for tax purposes;

30.31 	and reports for regulatory tariffs and other regulatory matters; and
30.32 	(3) books and records are maintained primarily for tax purposes when the books and 
30.33 	records identify taxable and nontaxable portions of the price, but the seller maintains other

31.6 	vehicle repair paint and motor vehicle repair materials for resale must either:
31.7 	(1) separately state each item of paint and each item of materials, and the sales price of 
31.8 	each, on the invoice to the purchaser; or
31.9 	(2) in order to calculate the sales price of the paint and materials, use a method which 
31.10 	estimates the amount and monetary value of the paint and materials used in the repair of 
31.11 	the motor vehicle by multiplying the number of labor hours by a rate of consideration for 
31.12 	the paint and materials used in the repair of the motor vehicle following industry standard 
31.13 	practices that fairly calculate the gross receipts from the retail sale of the motor vehicle 
31.14 	repair paint and motor vehicle repair materials. An industry standard practice fairly calculates 
31.15 	the gross receipts if the sales price of the paint and materials used or consumed in the repair 
31.16 	of a motor vehicle equals or exceeds the purchase price paid by the motor vehicle repair or 
31.17 	body shop business. Under this clause, the invoice must either separately state the "paint 
31.18 	and materials" as a single taxable item, or separately state "paint" as a taxable item and 
31.19 	"materials" as a taxable item. This clause does not apply to wholesale transactions at an 
31.20 	auto auction facility.
31.21 	(o) A sale of specified digital products or other digital products to an end user with or 
31.22 	without rights of permanent use and regardless of whether rights of use are conditioned

31.24 	relates to specified digital products or other digital products, the subsequent receipt of or 
31.25 	access to the related specified digital products or other digital products is not a retail sale.
31.26 	(p) A payment made to a cooperative electric association or public utility as a contribution 
31.27 	in aid of construction is a contract for improvement to real property and is not a retail sale.
31.28 	(q) A sale of cannabis seeds, usable cannabis, cannabis-infused products, or cannabis
