Communications Commission.
In any case where the appo rtionment of the three factors
prescribed in this paragraph attri butes to Oklahoma a portion of n et
income of the enterprise out of all appropriate proportion to the
property owned and/or business transacted within this state, because
of the fact that one or more of the factors so prescribed are not

or because one or more factors not so prescribed are employe d to a
considerable extent in furtherance of the enterprise; or because of
other reasons, the Tax Commission is empowered to permit, after a
showing by taxpayer that an excessive portion of net income has been
attributed to Oklaho ma, or require, when in it s judgment an
insufficient portion of net income has been attributed to Oklahoma,
the elimination, substitution, or use of additional factors, or
reduction or increase in the weig ht of such prescribed factors .
Provided, however, that any such variance fro m such prescribed
factors which has the effect of increasing the portion of net in come
attributable to Oklahoma must not be inherently arbitrary, a nd
