  • Charity: An agency, institution, or organization in existence and operating for the benefit of an indefinite number of persons and conducted for educational, religious, scientific, medical, or other beneficent purposes.
(b) In determining profits derived from such racing on such charity days, which profits shall include all taxes payable to the county or any agency thereof for such days’ operations, the tracks shall only be entitled to deduct from the profits accruing from all receipts on such charity days of racing their actual operating costs, which costs shall be those expenses incurred by the race track solely by reason of holding the charity days of racing and shall not be deemed to include such expenses constant from day to day and which would have been incurred had the race on that day not been held, including, but not limited to, such items as capital expenditures, interest on debts, real estate taxes, and annual license fee, donations, bad debts, and such other items of daily or prorated expense as the racing commission may by rule prescribe.
