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;

in respect to each corporation or business entity
required by the Federal Communications Commission
to keep its books and records in accordance with
a uniform system of accounts presc ribed by such
Commission, the intrastate net income shall be
determined separately in the manner provided by
such uniform system of accounts and only the
interstate income shall be subject to allocation
pursuant to the provisions of this subsection.
Provided further, that the gross revenue factors
shall be those as are determined pursuant to the
accounting procedures prescribed by the Federal
Communications Commission.
In any case where the apportionment of the three factors
prescribed in this paragraph at tributes to this state 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 more of the factors so prescribed
are not 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 showing by taxpayer that an excessive portion of net
income has been attributed to this state, or require, when in its

to this state, 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 this state must not be inherently
arbitrary, and application of the recomputed final apportionment to
the net income of the enterprise must attribute to this state only a
reasonable portion thereof.
6. For calendar years 1997 and 1998, the owner of a new or
expanded agricultural commodity processing facility in this state
may exclude from Oklahoma taxable income, or in the case of an
individual, the Oklahoma adjusted gross income, fifteen percent

percent (15%), available to the owner of a new or expanded
agricultural commodit y processing facility in this state claiming

the percentage for subsequent years. Any amount of the exemp tion
permitted to be excluded pursuant to the provisions of this
paragraph but not used in any year may be carried forward as an
exemption from income pursuant to the provisions of this paragraph
for a period not exceeding six (6) years following the year in which
