Question:
Assume the same facts as in Problem 31, except that both states employ a three-factor formula, under which sales are double-weighted. The property factor in A is computed using historical cost, while this factor in B is computed using the net depreciated basis. Neither A nor B includes rent payments in the property factor.
Data From Problem 31:
Dillman Corporation has nexus in States A and B. Dillman’s activities for the year are summarized below.
Determine the apportionment factors for A and B assuming that A uses a three-factor apportionment formula under which sales, property (net depreciated basis), and payroll are equally weighted and B employs a single-factor formula that consists solely of sales. State A has adopted the UDITPA with respect to the inclusion of rent payments in the property factor.
