Hello,
The IBI and CBI incentives' effect on federal, state, and depreciation calculations are controlled by the check boxes on the Incentives page.
To see how those inputs in the user interface map to SSC variables, you can use the inputs browser (File, Inputs Browser). The naming convention is as follows, using the Federal IBI as an example:
ibi_fed_percent (%)
The size of the federal IBI incentive as a percentage of the total installed cost.
ibi_fed_percent_maxvalue ($)
The upper limit of the federal IBI incentive in dollars.
ibi_fed_percent_deprbas_fed (0/1)
The federal IBI specified as a percentage reduces the depreciation basis for federal tax.
ibi_fed_percent_deprbas_sta (0/1)
The federal IBI specified as a percentage reduces the depreciation basis for federal tax.
ibi_fed_percent_tax_fed (0/1)
The federal IBI specified as a percentage is federally taxable.
ibi_fed_percent_tax_sta (0/1)
The federal IBI specified as a percentage is state taxable.
I see that the labels for those variables are missing, so will add an issue to the SAM GitHub repository to fix those:

Best regards,
Paul.
