K.S.A. 79-309 — Time of listing and valuation; sale or transfer after January 1 and tax-exempt investment prior thereto

All property shall be listed and valued on the first day of January in the year in which the same is assessed, and the transfer and sale of any taxable personal property subsequently to the first day of January shall not authorize any person to omit the same from the list, although such list be not made until after the sale or transfer of such property; but all such property shall be listed for taxation in the same manner as if no sale or transfer thereof had been made. In case moneys or property shall come into the hands of any person, which he or she would be required to list for taxation, and which moneys or property was not taxed in this state for the year immediately preceding the first day of January in any year, and the said moneys or property shall have been prior to any such January first invested in tax-exempt bonds or securities, then any such moneys or property shall be listed for taxation on January first by dividing the value of any such moneys or property by three hundred sixty-five (365), and multiplying the quotient by the number of days which any such taxable moneys or property remained in the hands of such a person prior to the time of its investment in any such tax-exempt bonds or securities.
