percent (25%) of the apportionment factor and sales comprising fifty 
percent (50%) of the app ortionment factor.  The apportionment 
factors shall be compu ted as follows:

which is the average value of the t axpayer's real and 
tangible personal property ow ned or rented and used in

rental rate received by the taxpayer from 
subrentals, 
(3) The average value of property shall be determined 
by averaging the values at the beginning and 
ending of the tax period but the Oklahoma Tax 
Commission may require the averaging of monthly 
values during the tax period if reasonably 
required to reflect properly the average value of 
the taxpayer's property; 
b. The payroll factor is a fraction, the numerator of 
which is the total compensation for services rendered 
in the state during the tax period, and the

transportation for a distance of one (1) mile of 
one (1) barrel of oil, one (1) gallon o f gasoline 
or one thousand (1,000) cubic feet o f natural or

employed to any appreciable extent in furtherance of the enterprise; 
or because one or more factors not so prescribed are employed to a 
considerable extent in furtherance of the enterprise; or because of 
other reasons, the Tax Commission is empowered to permit, after a

insufficient portion of net income has been attributed to Oklahoma, 
the elimination, substitution, or use of additional factors , or 
reduction or increase in the weight o f such prescribed factors .  
Provided, however, that any such variance from such prescribed 
factors which has the effect of increasing the portion of net income 
attributable to Oklahoma must not be inherently arbitr ary, and 
application of the recomputed fin al apportionment to the net income 
of the enterprise must attribute to Oklahoma only a reasonable 
portion thereof.

and all subsequent years, the percentage, not to exceed fifte en 
percent (15%), available to the owner of a new or expanded 
agricultural commodity processing facility in this state cl aiming 
the exemption shall be adjusted annually so that the total estimated 
reduction in tax liability does not exceed One Million Doll ars
