§ 1111. Special rules for computing receipts and consideration. (a)
The retail sales tax imposed under subdivision (a) of section eleven
hundred five of this part and the compensating use tax imposed under
section eleven hundred ten of this part, when computed in respect to
tangible personal property wherever manufactured, processed or assembled
and used by such manufacturer, processor or assembler in the regular
course of business within this state, shall be based on the price at
which items of the same kind of tangible personal property are offered
for sale by him, except to the extent otherwise provided in this section
or section eleven hundred ten of this part.

(b) Tangible personal property, which has been purchased by a resident
of New York state outside of this state for use outside of this state
and subsequently becomes subject to the compensating use tax imposed
under this article, shall be taxed on the basis of the purchase price of
such property, provided, however:

(1) That where a taxpayer affirmatively shows that the property was
used outside such state by him for more than six months prior to its use
within this state, such property shall be taxed on the basis of current
market value of the property at the time of its first use within this
state. The value of such property, for compensating use tax purposes,
may not exceed its cost.

(2) That the compensating use tax on such tangible personal property
brought into this state (other than for complete consumption or for
incorporation into real property located in this state) and used in the
performance of a contract or sub-contract within this state by a
purchaser or user for a period of less than six months may be based, at
the option of the taxpayer, on the fair rental value of such property
for the period of use within this state.

(c) For the amount and timing of tax in respect to property leased, or
sold under a contract deferring payments, see section eleven hundred
thirty-two. For the amount and timing of tax in respect to certain
leased property, see subdivision (i) of this section.

(d) The commissioner is authorized and empowered to prescribe and,
from time to time, to amend schedules of the amount of tax to be
collected upon each gallon of motor fuel and diesel motor fuel sold at
retail and upon each gallon of such fuel subject to the tax required to
be prepaid pursuant to section eleven hundred two of this article or
upon each package of cigarettes sold at retail and upon each package of
cigarettes subject to the tax required to be prepaid under section
eleven hundred three of this article, as the commissioner shall
determine is approximately equal to the average rate otherwise
applicable, considering the regional average retail sales prices of such
fuel, the amount of the prepaid tax per package of cigarettes in
accordance with subdivision (j) of this section and, in the case of a
sale at retail, the ordinary price ranges for such fuel and cigarettes,
in lieu of the regular schedule based on total receipts. Such rates
shall be uniform in each county but may vary as between counties,
depending on the general price ranges in effect in each county, but
counties wholly within a city shall have a uniform rate. If a political
subdivision of a county imposes a retail sales and use tax, separate
rates may be prescribed for it. Such schedules with reference to the tax
required to be prepaid on motor fuel and diesel motor fuel pursuant to
section eleven hundred two of this article or the tax required to be
prepaid on cigarettes under section eleven hundred three of this article
may fix the rate per gallon or per package of cigarettes in multiples of
one-tenth of one cent, depending, in the case of such fuel, on the
regional average retail sales prices where such fuel is, as the case may
be, imported, manufactured, sold or used. Such schedules with reference
to such fuel or cigarettes sold at retail may fix the rate per gallon or
per package, as the case may be, in multiples of one-tenth of one cent
depending on the price at which such fuel or cigarettes are sold. Where
schedules fixing the rate per gallon in multiples of one-tenth of one
cent have been promulgated, the price shown on any metered pump or other
dispensing device from which such fuel is sold to a purchaser of such
fuel, to be delivered directly to a vehicle propelled by any power other
than muscular, shall include the tax at the rate so fixed, and the
commissioner may by regulation prescribe the manner in which the amount
of tax shall be shown for the information of customers by signs or
placards on the premises where such fuel is sold. When determining tax
required to be collected on the retail sale of motor fuel or diesel
motor fuel or cigarettes, the receipts on which tax is computed shall
not include the amount of tax required to be prepaid pursuant to section
eleven hundred two of this article with respect to such fuel or pursuant
to section eleven hundred three of this article with respect to such
cigarettes.

(e) (1) There are hereby created and established within the state
three regions for purposes of the payment of the tax imposed by section
eleven hundred two of this article. (i) the first region shall consist
of the localities included in the metropolitan commuter transportation
district created and established pursuant to section twelve hundred
sixty-two of the public authorities law, excluding all localities
included in the counties of Nassau and Suffolk. (ii) The second region
shall consist of the localities included in the counties of Nassau and
Suffolk. (iii) The third region shall consist of the area of the state
outside the regions referred to in subparagraphs (i) and (ii) of this
paragraph.

(2) (i) Where the motor fuel is imported, manufactured or sold in, or
diesel motor fuel is sold or used in the region referred to in
subparagraph (i) of paragraph one of this subdivision, the tax required
to be prepaid pursuant to section eleven hundred two of this article on
each gallon of such fuel shall be sixteen cents.

(ii) Where motor fuel is imported, manufactured or sold in, or diesel
motor fuel is sold or used in the region referred to in subparagraph
(ii) of paragraph one of this subdivision, the tax required to be
prepaid pursuant to section eleven hundred two of this article on each
gallon of such fuel shall be sixteen cents.

(iii) Where motor fuel is imported, manufactured or sold in, or diesel
motor fuel is sold or used in the region referred to in subparagraph
(iii) of paragraph one of this subdivision, the tax required to be
prepaid pursuant to section eleven hundred two of this article on each
gallon of such fuel shall be fifteen cents.

(3) When a wholesaler of motor fuel sells motor fuel in a region, as
defined in paragraph one of this subdivision, different from the region
in which such motor fuel was purchased:

(i) if the region in which it sells the motor fuel has a higher
prepaid rate as set forth in this subdivision than the region in which
the wholesaler purchased the motor fuel in, the wholesaler shall pay to
the department the difference in the rates for the gallonage sold.

(ii) if the region in which it sells the motor fuel has a lower
prepaid rate as set forth in this subdivision than the region in which
the wholesaler purchased the motor fuel, the wholesaler shall be
entitled to a credit or refund for the difference in the rates for the
gallonage sold.

(4) The commissioner is authorized to adjust the rates in paragraph
two of this subdivision and shall prescribe a schedule of such rates for
each region described in paragraph one of this subdivision as provided
in this paragraph.

(i) The schedule required by this paragraph shall be reviewed
semiannually during the months of April and October of each year,
beginning in October, two thousand seventeen. The commissioner shall
determine a tentative rate of tax that would be required to be prepaid
pursuant to section eleven hundred two of this article on each gallon of
motor fuel or diesel motor fuel sold or used by multiplying the regional
average retail sales prices for such fuel for each region described in
paragraph one of this subdivision by a number that is seventy-five
percent of the average local sales tax rate in each such region and
adding to the product thereof the taxes imposed by paragraphs one and
two of subdivision (m) of this section. The regional average retail
sales price shall be determined for purposes of this subdivision using
data regarding sales prices, which shall include, but not be limited to,
sales prices as compiled by government or industry surveys and sources,
taking into consideration with respect to motor fuel, the volumes and
prices of unleaded motor fuels, including reformulated or like motor
fuels, sold in this state and with respect to both motor fuel and diesel
motor fuel, the volume and prices of such fuels sold at full service and
self-service pumps for such fuels, during an immediately preceding
period of up to twelve months ending the last day of March in the case
of the April semiannual review and ending the last day of September in
the case of the October semiannual review; provided, however, that the
regional average retail sales prices for both motor fuel and diesel
motor fuel shall represent the retail sales prices upon which the tax
under this article and pursuant to the authority of article twenty-nine
of this chapter is computed (including all federal and state and any
local taxes included in such price) for such period.

(ii) If upon such review, it is determined that the tentative rate of
tax that would be required to be prepaid for motor fuel or diesel motor
fuel in any of the regions described in paragraph one of this
subdivision would increase or decrease the rate for such region then in
effect by two or more cents per gallon, the commissioner shall adjust
such rate to be equal to the tentative rate, which shall take effect on
the first day of June or the first day of December, respectively.
Provided, however, the commissioner shall set the rate of tax required
to be prepaid in the region described in subparagraph (ii) of paragraph
one of this subdivision equal to the rate set forth in subparagraph (i)
of such paragraph, unless the regional average retail sales price in the
metropolitan commuter transportation district exceeds four dollars per
gallon. In such event, the commissioner is authorized to establish a
separate rate in the region described in such subparagraph (ii) and
shall compute such rate by multiplying the regional average retail sales
prices for motor fuel and diesel motor fuel in such region by a number
that is eighty-five percent of the average local sales tax rate in such
region and adding to the product thereof the taxes imposed by paragraphs
one and two of subdivision (m) of this section.

(iii) The commissioner shall cause to be published on the department's
website the schedule of rates and the regional average retail sales
prices of motor fuel and diesel motor fuel fixed by this section, no
later than ten days prior to the effective date of such rates.
Notwithstanding any other provision of law, the calculation and
publication of the rates so fixed by the provisions of this section
shall not be included within paragraph (a) of subdivision two of section
one hundred two of the state administrative procedure act relating to
the definition of a rule.

(5) Where a new rate of tax required to be prepaid for motor fuel or
diesel motor fuel is determined by the commissioner, (i) if such new
rate is less than the rate then in effect, on the date the rate becomes
effective (A) a registered distributor shall be entitled to a credit in
an amount equal to the difference between the amount of the prepaid tax
paid or incurred by him or her with respect to motor fuel which he or
she imported and which he or she has in inventory at the time such new
rate becomes effective and the amount of tax which would be due on such
inventory if the prepaid tax were calculated based on such new average
price for the region in which such motor fuel was imported and (B) such
inventory shall then be deemed to have been taxed based on the rate and
all certifications of tax payment given by the distributor with respect
to motor fuel in such inventory shall indicate a pass through of the
prepaid tax based on such new price, (ii) if such new rate is greater
than the existing rate, on the date such new rate becomes effective (A)
such distributor shall become liable to pay an additional tax equal to
the difference between the amount of tax which would be due with respect
to motor fuel which he or she imported and which he or she has in
inventory at the time such new rate becomes effective if the prepaid tax
on such motor fuel were calculated based on such new average price for
the region in which such motor fuel was imported and the amount of
prepaid tax paid or actually incurred by such distributor with respect
to such motor fuel and (B) such inventory shall then be deemed to have
been taxed based on the new rate and all certifications of tax payment
given by the distributor with respect to motor fuel in such inventory
shall indicate a pass through of the prepaid tax based on such new rate.
Such credit shall be allowed with respect to or such tax shall be paid
with the return covering the month immediately preceding the month in
which such new rate becomes effective. Any carryover credit may be
applied to subsequent periods. The amount to be reported as additional
tax shall be paid and disposed of in the same manner as the tax required
to be prepaid by section eleven hundred two of this article. Such
additional tax shall be determined, assessed, collected and enforced in
the same manner as the tax required to be prepaid by section eleven
hundred two of this article.

(f) The retail sales tax imposed under subdivision (a) of section
eleven hundred five and the compensating use tax imposed under section
eleven hundred ten, when computed in respect to a new mobile home, shall
be computed on seventy percent of the receipts or consideration given
therefor by the purchaser or user.

(g) The sale of race horses made through claiming races within the
state, shall be subject to sales tax but only on such portions of the
total purchase price that exceed the highest of any prior purchase
prices paid for the same horse during the same calendar year within the
state. Where no previous purchases have been made within a calendar
year, the full purchase price shall be taxable. Officials of all race
tracks in the state shall maintain and make available, upon reasonable
request, accurate and detailed lists of such sales.

(h) Receipts subject to tax under subdivision (a) of section eleven
hundred five on retail sales of cigarettes and tobacco products and
consideration given or contracted to be given for cigarettes and tobacco
products the uses of which are subject to tax under section eleven
hundred ten shall be deemed to include any tax imposed on cigarettes and
tobacco products by article twenty of this chapter and any tax imposed
on cigarettes by chapter thirteen of title eleven of the administrative
code of the city of New York.

(i) (A) Notwithstanding any contrary provisions of this article or
other law, with respect to any lease for a term of one year or more of
(1) a motor vehicle, as defined in section one hundred twenty-five of
the vehicle and traffic law, with a gross vehicle weight of ten thousand
pounds or less, or (2) a vessel, as defined in section twenty-two
hundred fifty of such law (including any inboard or outboard motor and
any trailer, as defined in section one hundred fifty-six of such law,
leased in conjunction with such a vessel), or an option to renew such a
lease or a similar contractual provision, all receipts due or
consideration given or contracted to be given for such property under
and for the entire period of such lease, option to renew or similar
provision, or combination of them, shall be deemed to have been paid or
given and shall be subject to tax, and any such tax due shall be
collected, as of the date of first payment under such lease, option to
renew or similar provision, or combination of them, or as of the date of
registration of such property with the commissioner of motor vehicles,
whichever is earlier. Notwithstanding any inconsistent provisions of
subdivision (b) of this section or of section eleven hundred seventeen
of this article or of other law, for purposes of such a lease, option to
renew or similar provision originally entered into outside this state,
by a lessee (1) who was a resident of this state, and leased such
property for use outside the state and who subsequently brings such
property into this state for use here or (2) who was a nonresident and
subsequently becomes a resident and brings the property into this state
for use here, any remaining receipts due or consideration to be given
after such lessee brings such property into this state shall be subject
to tax as if the lessee had entered into or exercised such lease, option
to renew or similar provision, or combination thereof, for the first
time in this state and the relevant provisions of sections eleven
hundred ten concerning imposition and computation of tax, eleven hundred
eighteen concerning exemption from use tax for tax paid to another
jurisdiction, eleven hundred thirty-two concerning presumption of
taxability and conditions for registration and eleven hundred
thirty-nine concerning refunds, of this article, shall be applicable to
any sales or compensating use tax paid by the lessee before the lessee
brought the property into this state, except to the extent that any such
provision is inconsistent with a provision of this subdivision. For
purposes of this subdivision, (1) a lease for a term of one year or more
shall include any lease for a shorter term which includes an option to
renew or other like provision (or more than one of such option or other
provision) where the cumulative period that the lease, with or without
such option or provision, may be in effect upon exercise of such option
or provision is one year or more and (2) receipts due and consideration
given or contracted to be given under any such lease or other provision
for excess mileage charges shall be subject to tax as and when paid or
due.

(B) (1) Notwithstanding any inconsistent provisions of this
subdivision, with respect to a lease of a motor vehicle described in
paragraph (A) of this subdivision for a term of one year or more which
includes an indeterminate number of options to renew or other similar
contractual provisions or which includes thirty-six or more monthly
options to renew beyond the initial term, and under which lease the
lessee of such motor vehicle has certified in the writing described in
clause (i) of subparagraph (C) of paragraph two of subsection (h) of
section 7701 of the internal revenue code of 1986, under penalty of
perjury, that the lessee intends that more than fifty percent of the use
of such vehicle is to be in a trade or business of the lessee, all
receipts due or consideration given or contracted to be given under such
lease for the first thirty-two months, or the period of the initial term
if greater, of such lease shall be deemed to have been paid or given and
shall be subject to tax in accordance with the provisions of this
subdivision.

For each such option to renew, or similar provision, or combination of
them, exercised after the first thirty-two months, or the period of such
initial term, if longer, of any such lease, tax due under this article
shall be collected and paid or paid over without regard to this
subdivision.

(2) If at the termination of a lease described in subparagraph one of
this paragraph the lessor refunds a portion of the receipt or
consideration to the lessee as required by a terminal rental adjustment
clause of such lease, either: (i) the lessee may claim a refund or
credit for the sales tax it paid on such refunded receipt or
consideration; or (ii) the lessor may claim a refund or credit of the
sales tax paid by the lessee on such refunded receipt or consideration
if it has demonstrated to the satisfaction of the commissioner that it
first refunded such tax to the lessee. Notwithstanding the provisions of
subdivision (c) of section eleven hundred thirty-nine of this article,
such claim for refund or credit shall be considered timely if it is made
within three years after the tax was paid by the lessor to the
commissioner or one year after such receipt or consideration was
refunded to the lessee, whichever is later; provided, however, that no
interest shall be paid on a refund or credit made pursuant to this
subparagraph.

(C) Any receipts due or consideration given or contracted to be given
under an option to renew a lease of a motor vehicle described in this
subdivision or similar contractual provision, or combination of them,
exercised as part of any such lease between the same lessor and the same
lessee with respect to the same motor vehicle or vehicles, where such
lease or any option to renew such a lease or any other similar
contractual provision was subject to tax in accordance with the
provisions of this subdivision, shall not be subject to the tax imposed
under the provisions of article twenty-eight-A of this chapter.

(j) (1) The tax required to be prepaid pursuant to section eleven
hundred three of this article shall be computed by multiplying the base
retail price by a tax rate of eight percent and rounding the result
thereof to the nearest whole cent per package.

(2) For purposes of this subdivision, the base retail price shall mean
for the period September first, nineteen hundred ninety-five, through
August thirty-first, nineteen hundred ninety-six, one dollar for each
package of cigarettes containing ten cigarettes or fraction thereof, and
two dollars for each package of cigarettes containing twenty cigarettes
or fraction thereof in excess of ten and, if a package contains more
than twenty cigarettes, the base retail price shall be increased by
fifty cents for each five cigarettes or fraction thereof in excess of
twenty. Effective for the twelve-month period commencing on the first
day of September of each year, the base retail price for any such
package shall be adjusted as follows: As soon as practicable after June
first of each year, the base retail price in effect for the twelve-month
period commencing on the immediately preceding September first shall be
multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which is the total of the
sums of the manufacturers' list price for a carton of standard brand
cigarettes containing ten packages of twenty cigarettes and the amount
of cigarette tax imposed by subdivision one of section four hundred
seventy-one of this chapter on such a carton of cigarettes, in effect on
the first day of each month, for each of the twelve consecutive months
ending with such month of June, and the denominator of which is the
total of the sums of the manufacturers' list price for such a carton of
cigarettes and the amount of cigarette tax imposed by subdivision one of
section four hundred seventy-one of this chapter on such a carton of
cigarettes, in effect on the first day of each month, for each of the
twelve consecutive months ending with the month of June of the
immediately preceding year. Provided, however, for purposes of the
adjustment to any such base retail price required for the period
commencing September first, two thousand two, the denominator shall be
such total with respect to the twelve consecutive months ending with the
month of June, nineteen hundred ninety-seven. The manufacturers' list
price for a carton of standard brand cigarettes containing ten packages
of twenty cigarettes in effect on the first day of a month shall be
determined by calculating a weighted average of each of the major
manufacturer's list prices for such a carton of cigarettes in effect on
the frist day of such month, as such list prices are reported to the
department by such manufacturers, in the department's determination of
the cost of cigarettes under article twenty-A of this chapter, and using
the most recently published annual national market shares of such major
manufacturers. The commissioner shall cause to be published in the
section for miscellaneous notices in the state register, and give other
appropriate general notice of, the base retail price adjustment
calculation and the resulting base retail price fixed by this section
for the period commencing September first of each year beginning
September first, nineteen hundred ninety-six, no later than the
immediately preceding first day of August. The calculation and
publication of the base retail price so fixed by provisions of this
section shall not be included within the definition of "rule" as defined
in paragraph (a) of subdivision two of section one hundred two of the
state administrative procedure act. The base retail prices determined
pursuant to this paragraph shall be rounded to the nearest one-tenth of
one cent for each package containing ten cigarettes or fraction thereof,
for each package containing twenty cigarettes and, if packages are sold
in excess of twenty cigarettes and stamps have been issued therefor, for
each such package.

(k) Receipts subject to tax under subdivision (a) of section eleven
hundred five of this article on retail sales of motor fuel, diesel motor
fuel and residual petroleum product, and consideration given or
contracted to be given for motor fuel, diesel motor fuel and residual
petroleum product, the uses of which are subject to tax under section
eleven hundred ten of this article, shall be deemed to include any tax
imposed on or with respect to motor fuel, diesel motor fuel or residual
petroleum product under article thirteen-A of this chapter.

(l) (1) Receipts from the sale of mobile telecommunications service
provided by a home service provider shall include "charges for mobile
telecommunications services." Such term shall mean any charge by a home
service provider to its mobile telecommunications customer for (A)
commercial mobile radio service, and shall include property and services
that are ancillary to the provision of commercial mobile radio service
(such as dial tone, voice service, directory information, call
forwarding, caller-identification and call-waiting), and (B) any service
and property provided therewith.

(2) With respect to services or property described in subparagraph (B)
of paragraph one of this subdivision, internet access service, any
mobile telecommunications service which the mobile telecommunications
customer originates in a foreign country to the extent included in the
fixed periodic charge, any interstate or international telephony or
telegraphy or telephone or telegraph service of whatever nature which is
not a voice service, and any property or service which is not telephony
or telegraphy or telephone or telegraph service of whatever nature, a
home service provider shall collect and pay over tax, and a mobile
telecommunications customer shall pay such tax, on receipts from any
charge that is aggregated with and not separately stated from other
charges for mobile telecommunications service. Provided, however, if
such home service provider uses an objective, reasonable and verifiable
standard for identifying each of the components of the charge for mobile
telecommunications service, then such home service provider may
separately account for and quantify the amount of each such component
charge. If a home service provider chooses to so separately account for
and quantify and separately sells any such property or service, then the
charge for such property or service shall be based upon the price for
such property or service as separately sold. If a home service provider
chooses to so separately account for and quantify and does not
separately sell such property or service, then the charge for such
property or service shall be based upon the prevailing retail price of
comparable property or service sold separately by other home service
providers. In any case, the charge for such property or service shall be
reasonable and proportionate to the total charge to the mobile
telecommunications customer. Such charges for such services or property,
as the case may be, will not constitute receipts from charges for mobile
telecommunications services subject to tax under subdivision (b) of
section eleven hundred five of this article. Nothing herein shall be
construed to exempt from tax or subject to tax any such service or
property otherwise subject to tax or exempt from tax under this article.

(3) (A) Any charge for a service or property billed by or for a mobile
telecommunications customer's home service provider shall be deemed to
be provided by such mobile telecommunications customer's home service
provider.

(B) Charges for mobile telecommunications service that are provided or
deemed to be provided by a mobile telecommunications customer's home
service provider shall be sourced to the taxing jurisdiction where the
mobile telecommunications customer's place of primary use is located,
regardless of where the mobile telecommunications service originates,
terminates or passes through.

(m) Notwithstanding any provision of law to the contrary:

(1) The sales tax imposed by subdivision (a) of section eleven hundred
five of this article and the compensating use tax imposed by section
eleven hundred ten of this article, in regard to retail sales of motor
fuel and diesel motor fuel, shall be eight cents per gallon.

(2) The sales and compensating use taxes imposed by subdivision (a) of
section eleven hundred nine of this article, in regard to retail sales
of motor fuel and diesel motor fuel, shall be three-quarters of one cent
per gallon.

(3) Paragraph one of this subdivision shall not apply to the sales and
compensating use taxes imposed by subdivision (a) of section eleven
hundred seven of this article in regard to retail sales of motor fuel
and diesel motor fuel. However, the legislative body of a city in which
the taxes imposed by such section eleven hundred seven are in effect, by
local law, ordinance, or resolution in exactly the form prepared by the
commissioner, may elect that such taxes, in regard to retail sales of
motor fuel and diesel motor fuel, shall be computed, as determined by
the commissioner, at a rate of cents per gallon, rounded to the nearest
cent, equal to two or three dollars, as determined by the municipality,
multiplied by the percentage rate of such taxes within the municipality.

(4) Paragraph one of this subdivision shall not apply to the sales and
compensating use taxes imposed by a local law, ordinance or resolution
of a municipality pursuant to the authority of subpart B of part one of
article twenty-nine of this chapter, in regard to retail sales of motor
fuel and diesel motor fuel. The legislative body of such a municipality,
by local law, ordinance or resolution in exactly the form prepared by
the commissioner, may elect that its sales and compensating use taxes,
in regard to the retail sale of motor fuel and diesel motor fuel, shall
be computed, as determined by the commissioner, at a rate of cents per
gallon, rounded to the nearest cent, equal to two, three or four
dollars, as determined by the municipality, multiplied by the percentage
rate of such taxes within the municipality.

(5)(i) Prior to the start of any sales tax quarter, the commissioner
shall apply the local percentage sales tax rate of each county or city
that has elected a cents per gallon rate pursuant to paragraph three or
four of this subdivision to the average price of motor fuel and diesel
motor fuel, not including sales tax and the motor fuel excise tax, for
three consecutive months beginning four months prior to the start of any
sales tax quarter. If the result of this computation is less than the
elected cents per gallon rate for a county or city, the cents per gallon
rate for such county or city shall be adjusted to be equal to such
computation, rounded to the nearest one cent. Such rates shall be
published by the commissioner and effective in the next succeeding sales
tax quarter.

(ii) Prior to the start of any sales tax quarter, the commissioner
shall also adjust in a like manner the cents per gallon rates prescribed
by paragraphs one and two of this subdivision based on percentage sales
tax rates of four percent and three-eighths of a percent respectively.
Provided, however, adjustments made to the cents per gallon rate
prescribed by paragraph two of this subdivision shall be rounded to the
nearest one-tenth of one cent.

(6) A local law, ordinance or resolution making or revoking the
election made pursuant to paragraph three or four of this subdivision
must go into effect in accordance with the provisions of subdivisions
(d) and (e) of section twelve hundred ten of this chapter.

(7) Notwithstanding any foregoing provision of this subdivision or
other law to the contrary, this subdivision, subdivision (h) of section
eleven hundred nine of this part and subdivision (n) of section eighteen
hundred seventeen of this chapter, section three hundred ninety-two-i of
the general business law and other provisions of law which refer or
relate to this subdivision shall apply only to (A) motor fuel or diesel
motor fuel sold for use directly and exclusively in the engine of a
motor vehicle and (B) motor fuel or diesel motor fuel, other than
water-white kerosene sold exclusively for heating purposes in containers
of no more than twenty gallons, sold by a retail gas station. For
purposes of this subdivision and such other provisions of law, "retail
gas station" shall mean a filling station where such fuel is stored
primarily for sale by delivery directly into the ordinary fuel tank
connected with the engine of a motor vehicle to be consumed in the
operation of such motor vehicle or where such fuel is stored primarily
for sale by delivery directly into the ordinary fuel tank connected with
the engine of a vessel to be consumed in the operation of such vessel.
The commissioner is hereby authorized to require the use of certificates
or other documents, and procedures related thereto, to effect the
purposes of this subdivision; and any such certificate or other document
so required by the commissioner for a purchaser to tender to a vendor to
purchase such fuel subject to tax on the reduced base established by or
pursuant to this subdivision is hereby deemed to be an exemption
certificate as such term is used in subdivision (c) of section eleven
hundred thirty-two of this article and as if the provisions of such
subdivision (c) referred to such a certificate or document required
pursuant to this subdivision.

* (n) The sales and compensating use taxes imposed by this article and
pursuant to the authority of article twenty-nine of this chapter on B20
shall be imposed at eighty percent of the rate of the cents per gallon
taxes described in subdivision (m) of this section. However, if a county
or city does not make the cents per gallon election authorized by such
subdivision (m), the taxes of such county or city imposed pursuant to
the authority of such article twenty-nine or the taxes imposed in a city
of one million or more by section eleven hundred seven of this article
shall be imposed on eighty percent of the receipts from the retail sale
of or the consideration given or contracted to be given for, or for the
use of, such B20.

(o) (1) If a transportation service subject to tax under paragraph ten
of subdivision (c) of section eleven hundred five of this part is
provided by vehicle, and the owner or lessor of the vehicle leases or
rents the vehicle to an unrelated person who provides the transportation
service, such as a limousine driver who drives a limousine owned by
another person, then (i) the owner or lessor is deemed to provide the
transportation service during the day or other period that the unrelated
person uses the vehicle to provide the service, (ii) the owner or lessor
is deemed to be the vendor of the service provided by the unrelated
person, (iii) the tax imposed by such paragraph ten is deemed to be
imposed on the unrelated person, (iv) the owner or lessor, as vendor,
must collect the tax from the unrelated person, based on the local
jurisdiction where the driver takes delivery of the vehicle and pay over
such tax required to be collected with its returns required to be filed
under this article, and (v) the receipts subject to the tax equal two
hundred percent of the amount that the owner or lessor charges the
unrelated person for the use of the vehicle during the day or other
period, including any charge related to insurance, maintenance, repairs,
fuel, the use, rental or economic value of any vehicle or business
license, and any other charge made by the owner or lessor to the
unrelated person for the day or other period, regardless of whether the
unrelated person transported, carried or conveyed any person or earned
any fares with that vehicle during that day or other period.

(2) Notwithstanding any law to the contrary:

(i) Any municipality or public corporation that establishes or
regulates black car, limousine or other vehicle service fares must
adjust those fares to include therein the tax imposed by paragraph ten
of subdivision (c) of section eleven hundred five of this part and the
taxes imposed by other sections of this part and pursuant to the
authority of article twenty-nine of this chapter on the services taxed
by such paragraph ten and must require that any meters or other devices
in the vehicles or otherwise that measure fares be adjusted to include
these taxes, as the same are from time to time imposed and as the rates
of those taxes may change.

(ii) Any person that sells the services described in paragraph one of
this subdivision must adjust any meters or other devices in the vehicles
or otherwise that measure fares so that they timely reflect any change
in the rates of the taxes described in subparagraph (i) of this
paragraph. Neither the failure of a municipal or other public
corporation to adjust fares nor the failure of any person to adjust the
meters or devices will relieve any person from the obligation to collect
and pay or pay over such taxes timely, at the correct combined rate.

(3) For purposes of this subdivision, "unrelated person" means a
person other than a related person as defined for purposes of section
fourteen of this chapter.

(p) Notwithstanding any contrary provision of law: (1) The sales tax
imposed by subdivision (a) of section eleven hundred five of this part
on receipts from the retail sale of a new modular home module shall be
computed on the sum of (i) sixty percent of the vendor's receipts from
the sale of the module, excluding any charges by the vendor to the
purchaser for shipping or delivery, as described in paragraph three of
subdivision (b) of section eleven hundred one of this article and (ii)
one hundred percent of any charges by the vendor to the purchaser for
shipping or delivery of the modules as described in such paragraph three
of subdivision (b) of section eleven hundred one.

(2) The compensating use tax imposed by clause (A) of subdivision (a)
of section eleven hundred ten of this part on the use of a new modular
home module by its purchaser shall be computed on the sum of (i) sixty
percent of the amount described in subdivision (b) of such section
eleven hundred ten, excluding any charges for shipping or delivery as
described in paragraph three of subdivision (b) of section eleven
hundred one of this article, and (ii) one hundred percent of any charges
for shipping or delivery as described in such paragraph three of
subdivision (b) of section eleven hundred one.

(3) The compensating use tax imposed by subclause (i) or (ii) of
clause (B) of subdivision (a) of section eleven hundred ten of this part
on the use of modular home modules by their manufacturer to be installed
at a building site to construct a modular home that constitutes a
capital improvement shall be computed on the sum of (i) sixty percent of
the consideration for which the manufacturer conveys those modules to
the modular home buyer on an installed basis, excluding any
consideration for shipping or delivery as described in paragraph three
of subdivision (b) of section eleven hundred one of this article, and
excluding the consideration for the installation of those modules at the
building site as a modular home if such installation charge is
reasonable and stated separately from every other charge, and (ii) one
hundred percent of any charges for shipping or delivery as described in
such paragraph three of subdivision (b) of section eleven hundred one.

(q) (1) The exclusions from the definition of retail sale in
subparagraph (iv) of paragraph four of subdivision (b) of section eleven
hundred one of this article shall not apply to transfers, distributions,
or contributions of a vessel, except where, in the case of the exclusion
in subclause (I) of clause (A) of such subparagraph (iv), the two
corporations to be merged or consolidated are not affiliated persons
with respect to each other. For purposes of this subdivision,
corporations are affiliated persons with respect to each other where (i)
more than five percent of their combined shares are owned by members of
the same family, as defined by paragraph four of subsection (c) of
section two hundred sixty-seven of the internal revenue code of nineteen
hundred eighty-six; (ii) one of the corporations has an ownership
interest of more than five percent, whether direct or indirect, in the
other; or (iii) another person or a group of other persons that are
affiliated persons with respect to each other hold an ownership interest
of more than five percent, whether direct or indirect, in each of the
corporations.

(2) Notwithstanding any contrary provision of law, in relation to any
transfer, distribution, or contribution of a vessel that qualifies as a
retail sale as a result of paragraph one of this subdivision, the sales
tax imposed by subdivision (a) of section eleven hundred five of this
part shall be computed based on the price at which the seller purchased
the tangible personal property, provided that where the seller or
purchaser affirmatively shows that the seller owned the property for six
months prior to making the transfer, distribution or contribution
covered by paragraph one of this subdivision, such vessel shall be taxed
on the basis of the current market value of the vessel at the time of
that transfer, distribution, or contribution. For the purposes of the
prior sentence, "current market value" shall not exceed the cost of the
vessel. See subdivision (b) of this section for a similar rule on the
computation of any compensating use tax due under section eleven hundred
ten of this part on such transfers, distributions, or contributions.

(3) A purchaser of a vessel covered by paragraph one of this
subdivision will be entitled to a refund or credit against the sales or
compensating use tax due as a result of a transfer, distribution, or
contribution of such vessel in the amount of any sales or use tax paid
to this state or any other state on the seller's purchase or use of the
vessel so transferred, distributed or contributed, but not to exceed the
tax due on the transfer, distribution, or contribution of the vessel or
on the purchaser's use in the state of the vessel so transferred,
distributed or contributed. An application for a refund or credit under
this subdivision must be filed and shall be in such form as the
commissioner may prescribe. Where an application for credit has been
filed, the applicant may immediately take such credit on the return
which is due coincident with or immediately subsequent to the time the
application for credit is filed. However, the taking of the credit on
the return shall be deemed to be part of the application for credit.
Provided that the commissioner may, in his or her discretion and
notwithstanding any other law, waive the application requirement for any
or all classes of persons where the amount of the credit or refund is
equal to the amount of the tax due from the purchaser. The provisions of
subdivisions (a), (b), and (c) of section eleven hundred thirty-nine of
this article shall apply to applications for refund or credit under this
subdivision. No interest shall be allowed or paid on any refund made or
credit allowed under this subdivision. If a refund is granted or a
credit allowed under this paragraph, the seller or purchaser shall not
be eligible for a refund or credit pursuant to subdivision seven of
section eleven hundred eighteen of this article with regard to the same
purchase or use.

(r) (1) In regard to the collection of sales tax on occupancies by
room remarketers, when occupancy is provided for a single consideration
with property, services, amusement charges, or any other items, whether
or not such other items are taxable, the rent portion of the
consideration for such transaction shall be computed as follows: either
the total consideration received by the room remarketer multiplied by a
fraction, the numerator of which shall be the consideration payable for
the occupancy by the room remarketer and the denominator of which shall
be such consideration payable for the occupancy plus the consideration
payable by the remarketer for the other items being sold, or by any
other method as may be authorized by the commissioner. If the room
remarketer fails to separately state the tax on the rent so computed on
a sales slip, invoice, receipt, or other statement given to the occupant
in the manner prescribed by paragraph two of this subdivision or fails
to maintain records of the prices of all components of a transaction
covered by this paragraph, the entire consideration shall be treated as
rent subject to tax under paragraph one of subdivision (e) of section
eleven hundred five of this part. Nothing herein shall be construed to
subject to tax or exempt from tax any service or property or amusement
charge or other items otherwise subject to tax or exempt from tax under
this article or pursuant to the authority of article twenty-nine of this
chapter. A room remarketer's records of the consideration payable for
all components of a transaction covered by this paragraph are records
required to be maintained for purposes of subdivision (a) of section
eleven hundred thirty-five of this article.

(2) In regard to the collection of sales tax on occupancies by room
remarketers, including a transaction described in paragraph one of this
subdivision, the requirements of the second sentence of paragraph one of
subdivision (a) of section eleven hundred thirty-two of this article
shall be deemed satisfied if the remarketer gives the customer a sales
slip, invoice, receipt, or other statement of the price ("invoice")
prior to the customer's completion of his or her occupancy, on which the
amount of tax due under this article and pursuant to the authority of
article twenty-nine of this chapter is stated. The room remarketer must
keep either a copy of the invoice as required by subdivision (a) of
section eleven hundred thirty-five of this article, or electronic
records that accurately reflect the information that is on the invoice
provided to the customer.

(3) In regard to the reporting and the payment to the commissioner by
room remarketers of sales tax due on occupancies, subdivision (a) of
section eleven hundred thirty-seven of this article shall be read to
require a room remarketer to report such sales tax due, including in
regard to a transaction described in paragraph one of this subdivision,
on the return due for the filing period in which the occupancy ends and,
at the time of filing such return, to pay to the commissioner the total
amount described by such subdivision (a).
