following is a brief description of the schedules a taxpayer should use to report taxable personal property: 
SCHEDULE 1: Personal Property Mobile Homes used for Residential Housing; By law, a mobile home is considered to be personal property unless:

SCHEDULE 4: Motor Vehicles are self-propelled and designed to operate on public roads. List motor vehicles that are tagged to operate at 
 16,000 pounds or greater or non-highway titled. Micro-utility trucks should be listed on this schedule. Vehicles not designed to operate on

SCHEDULE 5: Commercial and Industrial Machinery and Equipment is any tangible personal property used to produce income or depreciated 
 or expensed for IRS purposes which is not exempt, state appraised, or a motor vehicle. All tangible personal property used for commercial 
 and industrial purposes must be listed for property tax purposes unless it is expressly exempt, even if the item has been fully depreciated for

 The following is a brief description of the columns on Schedule 5: 
 (1) A description of the property. 
 (2) The year the new or used item was purchased. 
 (3) Note whether the item was purchased new (“N”) or used (“U”). 
 (4) The age, in years, of the item at the time it was purchased. If purchased new the age at purchase is 0. 
 (5) The cost to acquire the item; in terms of dollar value, not including sales tax or freight and installation costs that are charged

 Retail cost when new is the cost of the item when first offered new at the retail level, not including sales tax or freight and installation costs 
 charged  separately  and  readily  discernible  from  the  set  retail  price.  When  items  are  purchased  used,  the  appraiser  will  use  a  formula 
 prescribed by the state to estimate “retail cost when new”. 
 An “item” functions independently, without direct physical attachment to another “part” of machinery and equipment used in the owners 
 business. For example, a keyboard or monitor is a “part” used in conjunction with other “parts” which together form the “item” (computer). 
 Exemptions: Machinery and equipment with a “retail cost when new” of $1500 or less is expressly exempt from taxation. In addition, all 
 machinery and equipment acquired after June 30, 2006, via a bona fide purchase or lease or is transported into the state for expansion of

 cars, non-commercial trailers, travel trailers that are not Kansas RV-titled, Tiny Home Trailers, etc. Also includes boat trailer and boat motors 
 not listed as Watercraft. Note: The owner of record must notify the county appraiser of the sale or acquisition of any Schedule 6 item.   The 
 notification must be given on or before December 20th, so the value can be prorated for the number of months it is owned. 
 Exemption:  Personal  property  not  elsewhere classified  (subclass  6)  whose  purchase  price  is  $750  or  less is expressly  exempt from 
 taxation. This exemption also applies to Watercraft.  
SCHEDULE 7: Tangible Personal Property Held But Taxable to Others. Anyone having in their possession or custody taxable personal property 
 belonging to another (e.g.; leased/lease-purchase equipment, vending or game machines, etc.) must list the property in the name of the 
 owner. Exempt entities must also list taxable personal property belonging to others. Refer to Schedule 5 for applicable exemptions. 
 Watercraft is defined as any boat or vessel designed to be propelled by machinery, oars, paddles, or wind action upon a sail for navigation on 
 the water. Each watercraft may include one trailer and any nonelectric motor or motors necessary to operate such watercraft on the water. 
 Additional trailers and motors must be listed in Schedule 6. Note: The owner of record must notify the county appraiser of the sale or 
 acquisition of any watercraft. The notification must be given on or before December 20th, so the value can be prorated for the number of 
 months it is owned. 
 Exemption: Any boat that is designed to be propelled through water through human power alone shall be exempt. 
NOTE: By law, in order to promote uniform, equal and accurate assessments, all renditions filed are subject to review by the county appraiser
