Where Does Colorado Cannabis Money Go?

15% Special Marijuana State Sales Tax: 10% of this funding is returned back to localities that have opted into legal cannabis. Of the other 90% of this, about 12% goes to public schools, about 15% is retained in the general fund, and the remainder of this funding goes into the Marijuana Tax Cash Fund.

2.9% Medical Sales Tax: All of this funding goes to the Marijuana Tax Cash Fund.

The marijuana tax cash fund has to be used for priorities Coloradans care about such as health care, health education, mental health and substance abuse prevention and treatment programs, and law enforcement. State legislators determine how this money is allocated.

​Licensing and Fees: Since 2014, the state has also collected $100.5 Million in licensing and fees. This money goes back into funding the Marijuana Enforcement Division which enforces state rules and regulations for the industry.

Tax Code: 280(e)

The chart above demonstrates the difference between how a Colorado cannabis business is taxed and how other Colorado busineses are taxed under the federal code. Both companies sell $1M worth of goods and have $500,000 for their cost of those goods sold expenses. The non-280(e) company in the right hand column would be able to deduct their $325,000 of expenses from their federal tax bill. This means these businesses are only charged federal taxes on the $175,000 in net income so they pay only $45,000 in federal income taxes. This makes their effective tax rate 26%. 

​On the other hand, Colorado’s legal marijuana businesses fall under the 280(e) category and face the challenges outlined in the left hand column. They have the same exact costs as the non-280e company, but unlike all other Colorado small businesses, they are prohibited from deducting their usual business expenses. This means the federal government charges them “income” tax on the full $500,000, hitting them with a massive $125,000 tax bill, an effective tax rate of 71%.
