is valued at eight times the net annual rental 
rate.  Net annual rental rate is the annual 
rental rate paid by the taxpayer, less any annual 
rental rate received by the taxpayer from

ending of the tax period, but the Oklahoma Tax 
Commission may require the averaging of monthly 
values during the tax period if r easonably 
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 per iod, and the 
denominator of which is the total compensation for 
services rendered everywhere during the tax period .  
“Compensation”, as used in this subsection means those 
paid-for services to the extent related to the unitary 
business but does not include officers’ salaries, 
wages, and other compensation. 
(1) In the case of a transportation enterprise, the 
numerator of the fraction shall include a portion 
of such expenditure i n connection with employees 
operating equipment over a fixed route, such as 
railroad employees, airline pilots, or bus 
drivers, in this state only a part of the time, 
in the proportion that milea ge traveled in 
Oklahoma bears to total mileage traveled by su ch 
employees,

connection with itinerant employees, such as 
traveling salespersons, in this state onl y a part 
of the time, in the proportion that time spent in 
Oklahoma bears to total time spent in furth erance 
of the enterprise by such employee s; 
c. The sales factor is a fract ion, the numerator of which 
is the total sales or gross revenue of the taxpayer in 
this state during the tax period, and the denominator 
of which is the total sales or gross revenue of the 
taxpayer everywhere during the tax period.  “Sales”,

enterprise or freight car, tan k car, refrigerator

of revenue from interstate transportation in the 
proportion that interstat e mileage traveled in 
Oklahoma bears to total interstate mileag e 
traveled. 
(4) In the case of an oil, g asoline or gas pipeline 
enterprise, the numerator of the fraction shall 
be either the total of traffic units of the 
enterprise within Oklahoma or the re venue 
allocated to Oklahoma based upon miles moved, at 
the option of the taxpayer, and the denominator

In any case where the a pportionment of the three factors 
prescribed in this paragraph attributes to O klahoma a portion of net 
income of the enterprise out of all appropriate proportion to the 
property owned and/or business transacted withi n this state, because 
of the fact that one or more of the factors so prescribed a re not 
employed to any appreciable ex tent in furtherance of the enterprise; 
or because one or more factors not so prescribed are emp loyed to a 
considerable extent in furtheran ce of the enterprise; or because of 
other reasons, the Tax Commission is empowere d to permit, after a 
showing by taxpayer that an excessive portion of net income has been 
attributed to Oklaho ma, or require, when i n its judgment an 
insufficient portion of n et income has been attributed to Oklahom a, 
the elimination, substitution, or use of additional factors, or 
reduction or increase in the weight of 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 arbitrary, and 
application of the recomputed final apportionment to the net income 
of the enterprise must attribute t o Oklahoma only a reasonable 
portion thereof.
