(a) Except as otherwise specifically provided, a financial institution whose business activity is taxable both within and without this state shall allocate and apportion its net income as provided in this subchapter.

A financial institution organized under the laws of a foreign country, the Commonwealth of Puerto Rico, or a territory or possession of the United States whose effectively connected income, as defined under the Internal Revenue Code, 26 U.S.C. § 1 et seq., as in effect January 1, 1995, is taxable both within this state and within another state, other than the state in which it is organized, shall allocate and apportion its net income as provided in this subchapter. (b) All business income, income which is includable in the apportionable income tax base, shall be apportioned to this state by multiplying such income by the taxpayer's receipts factor as described in § 26-51-1403 . (c) The taxpayer's receipts factor shall be computed according to the method of accounting, cash or accrual basis, used by the taxpayer for the taxable year. (d) If the allocation and apportionment provisions of this subchapter do not fairly represent the extent of the taxpayer's business activity in this state, the taxpayer may petition for, or the Secretary of the Department of Finance and Administration may require, in respect to all or any part of the taxpayer's business activity, if reasonable: (1) Separate accounting; (2) The inclusion of one (1) or more additional factors which will fairly represent the taxpayer's business activity in this state; or (3) The employment of any other method to effectuate an equitable allocation and apportionment of the taxpayer's income.
