To calculate the fiscal year 2008 base, multiply $2,619,100,000.00 by 1.0075 and then multiply this product by the United States consumer price index for fiscal year 2008 and then divide this product by the United States consumer price index for fiscal year 2007.
(2) For the 2009 fiscal year, except as otherwise provided under subsection (4), if total net cash payments from the tax imposed under this act, excluding any revenue collected pursuant to chapter 2A, exceed the fiscal year 2009 base, 60% of that excess shall be refunded in the immediately succeeding fiscal year as provided in subsection (5) and the remaining 40% shall be deposited into the countercyclical budget and economic stabilization fund created in section 351 of the management and budget act, 1984 PA 431, MCL 18.1351. To calculate the fiscal year 2009 base, multiply $3,051,500,000.00 by 1.015 and then multiply this product by the United States consumer price index for fiscal year 2009 and then divide this product by the United States consumer price index for fiscal year 2007.
(3) For the 2010 fiscal year and each fiscal year after 2010, except as otherwise provided under subsection (4), if total net cash payments from the tax imposed under this act, excluding any revenue collected pursuant to chapter 2A, exceed the fiscal year base, 60% of that excess shall be refunded in the immediately succeeding fiscal year as provided in subsection (5) and the remaining 40% shall be deposited into the countercyclical budget and economic stabilization fund created in section 351 of the management and budget act, 1984 PA 431, MCL 18.1351. To calculate the fiscal year base, multiply the fiscal year base for the immediately preceding fiscal year by 1.0075 and then multiply this product by the United States consumer price index for the fiscal year and divide this product by the United States consumer price index for the immediately preceding fiscal year.
(4) If the amount of the total net cash payments collected from the tax imposed under this act, excluding any revenue collected pursuant to chapter 2A, exceeds the amount described in the applicable subsection by less than $5,000,000.00, then all of that excess shall be deposited into the countercyclical budget and economic stabilization fund created in section 351 of the management and budget act, 1984 PA 431, MCL 18.1351.

The taxpayer's pro rata share shall be the total amount to be refunded under subsection (1) multiplied by a fraction the numerator of which is the positive net payments made by the taxpayer during the fiscal year and the denominator of which is the sum of the positive net cash payments made by all taxpayers during the fiscal year. For each fiscal year after the 2008 fiscal year, the refund available under subsection (2) or (3) shall be applied pro rata to the taxpayers that claimed 1 or more credits under section 403 or 405 during the immediately preceding fiscal year. The taxpayer's pro rata share shall be the total amount to be refunded under subsection (2) or (3) multiplied by a fraction the numerator of which is the credits claimed under sections 403 and 405 by the taxpayer during the immediately preceding fiscal year and the denominator of which is the sum of the credits claimed under sections 403 and 405 by all taxpayers during the immediately preceding fiscal year.
