  1 12 the state's apportioned share of the qualifying
  1 13 expenditures for increasing research activities. the
  1 14 sum of the following:
  1 15    (1)  Six and one-half percent of the excess of
  1 16 qualified research expenses during the tax year over

  1 18 state's apportioned share of the qualifying
  1 19 expenditures for increasing research activities.
  1 20    (2)  Six and one-half percent of the basic research
  1 21 payments determined under section 41(e)(1)(A) of the
  1 22 Internal Revenue Code during the tax year based upon
  1 23 the state's apportioned share of the qualifying
  1 24 expenditures for increasing research activities.
  1 25    The state's apportioned share of the qualifying
  1 26 expenditures for increasing research activities is a
  1 27 percent equal to the ratio of qualified research
  1 28 expenditures in this state to total qualified research
  1 29 expenditures.
  1 30    b.  In lieu of the credit amount computed in
  1 31 paragraph "a", subparagraph (1), an eligible business
  1 32 may elect to compute the credit amount for qualified
  1 33 research expenses incurred in this state in a manner
  1 34 consistent with the alternative incremental credit
  1 35 described in section 41(c)(4) of the Internal Revenue
  1 36 Code.  The taxpayer may make this election regardless

  1 39 the tax year and the taxpayer may use another or the
  1 40 same method for any subsequent year.
  1 41    c.  For purposes of the alternate credit
  1 42 computation method in paragraph "b", the credit

  2  5 using that method.
  2  6    3.  If the eligible business is a partnership,
  2  7 subchapter S corporation, limited liability company,
  2  8 or estate or trust electing to have the income taxed
  2  9 directly to the individual, an individual may claim
  2 10 the tax credit allowed.  The amount claimed by the
