(2) if the principal source of premiums written by an
insurance company consists of premiums for
reinsurance accepted by it, the taxable income of
such company shall be apportioned to this state

numerator of which is the sum of (a) direct
premiums written for insurance on property or
risks in this state, plus (b) premiums written

or risks in this state, and the denominat or of

5. The net income or loss remaining after the separate
allocation in paragraph 4 of this subsection, being that which i s
derived from a unitary business enterprise, shall be apportioned to

consisting of property, payroll and sales or gross revenue
enumerated as subparagraphs a, b and c of this paragraph. Net

patent or copyright royalties, purchase discounts, and interest on
accounts receivable relating to or arising from a business activity,

other property used in the unitary enterprise. Deductions used in
computing such net income or loss shall not include taxes based on
or measured by income. Provided, for corporations whose property
for purposes of the tax imposed by Section 2355 of this title has an
initial investment cost equaling or exceeding Two Hundred Million

equaling or exceeding Two Hundred Million Dollars ($200,000,000.00)
over a period not to exceed three (3) years, and such expansion is
commenced on or after January 1, 2000, the three factors shall be
apportioned with property and payroll, each comprising twenty -five
percent (25%) of the apportionment factor and sales comprising fifty
percent (50%) of the apportionment factor. The apportionment
factors shall be computed as follows:
a. The property factor is a fraction, the numerator of
which is the average value of the taxpayer ’s real and
tangible personal property owned or rented and used in
this state during the tax period and the denominator
of which is the averag e value of all the taxpayer ’s
real and tangible personal property everywhere owned
or rented and used during the tax period.
(1) Property, the income from which is separately
allocated in paragraph 4 of this subsection,
shall not be included i n determining this
fraction. The numerator of the fraction shall

proportion that miles traveled in Oklahoma this
state by such equipment bears to total miles
traveled,
(2) Property owned by the taxpayer is valued at its
original cost. Property rented by the taxpayer
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
subrentals,
(3) The average value of property shall be de termined
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
denominator of which is the total compensation for
services rendered everywhere during the tax period.

of such expenditure in connection with employees

railroad employees, airline pilots, or bus
drivers, in this state only a part of the time,
in the proportion tha t mileage traveled in
Oklahoma this state bears to total mileage
traveled by such employees,
(2) In any case the numerator of the fraction shall
include a portion of such expenditures in
connection with itinerant employees, such as
traveling salespersons, in this state only a part
of the time, in the proportion that time spent in
Oklahoma this state bears to total time spent in
furtherance of the enterprise by such employees;
c. The sales factor is a fraction, the numerator of which
is the total sales or gr oss 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

States government, within this state regardl ess
of the FOB Freight on Board (FOB) point or other

the purchaser is the United States government or
(b) the taxpayer is not doing business in the
state of the destination of the shipment.
(2) In the case of a railroad or interurban railway
enterprise, the numerator of the fraction shall
not be less than the allocation of revenues to
this state as shown in its annual report to the
Corporation Commission.
(3) In the case of an airline, truck or bus
enterprise or freight car, tank car, refrigerator
car or other railroad equipment enterprise, the
numerator of the fraction shall include a portion

enterprise, the numerator of the fraction shall
be either the total of traffic units of the
enterprise within Oklahoma this state or the
revenue allocated to Oklahoma this state based
upon miles moved, at the option of the taxpayer,
and the denominator of which shall be the total
of traffic units of the enterpri se or the revenue
of the enterprise everywhere as appropriate to
the numerator. A “traffic unit” is hereby
defined as the transportation for a distance of
one (1) mile of one (1) barrel of oil, one (1)
gallon of gasoline or one thousand (1,000) cubic
feet of natural or casinghead gas, as the case

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 prescribed 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 attributes to Oklahoma 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 e mployed 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 Oklahoma this state, or

has been attributed to Oklahoma 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 Oklahoma
this state must not be inherently arbitrary, and application of the
recomputed final apportionment to the net income of the enterprise
must attribute to Oklahoma 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
(15%) of the investment by the owner in the new or expande d
agricultural commodity processing facility. For calendar year 1999,
and all subsequent years, the percentage, not to exceed fifteen
percent (15%), available to the owner of a new or expanded
agricultural commodity processing facility in thi s state claiming
the exemption shall be adjusted annually so that the total estimated
reduction in tax liability does not exceed One Million Dollars
($1,000,000.00) annually. The Tax Commission shall promulgate rules
for determining the percentage of the investment wh ich each eligible
taxpayer may exclude. The exclusion provided by this paragraph

calendar year, the Tax Commission shall permit any excess over One
Million Dollars ($1,000,000.00) and shall factor such excess into
the percentage for subsequent years. Any amount of the exemption
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
the investment was originally made.
