In any case where the apportionm ent 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 within this state, because of the fact that one or mor e of the factors so prescribed are no t 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 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 inco me has been attributed to Oklaho ma, or require, when i n its judgment an ENGR.
