 of the city school district of the city of New York shall be the sum  of
 the  adjusted  gross  income  of  the boroughs of the city. The adjusted
 gross income of a central high school district shall equal  the  sum  of
 the  adjusted  gross  income  of each of its component school districts.
 "Selected adjusted gross income" shall mean the lesser of adjusted gross
 income calculated for aid payable in the current year  or  the  two-year
 average  of  the adjusted gross income calculated for aid payable in the
