The following examples illustrate the application of Section 7-9-53 NMSA 1978.
A. Example 1: V, a railroad company, rents motel rooms in X's motel on a permanent basis as lodging for its train crews while they wait for a return trip to their home station. The receipts X receives from V are not deductible under Section 7-9-53 NMSA 1978. If, however, V leases the entire motel from X, X's receipts are deductible under Section 7-9-53 NMSA 1978.
B. Example 2: X is engaged in constructing homes on land that X owns and has subdivided. X then sells them to interested individuals. X's sales are sales of real property, but X must pay gross receipts tax on that portion of the receipts that are attributable to the value of the houses and other improvements that X has constructed on the real property.
C. Example 3: X has lived in P, a motel, for fifteen years. X rents a room from the motel for $1200 per year, payable in twelve monthly installments. P contends that the rental is a rental of real property and is deductible for the purposes of computing its tax liability under the gross receipts tax. The receipts which P receives from X are not deductible. Receipts from the rental of motel rooms are not deductible.
