Or. Admin. R. 330-091-0140 - Pass-through Option Facilities

A pass-through partner may purchase a Manufacturing BETC certificate from an applicant with a facility that is otherwise eligible for the tax credit in return for a cash lump-sum pass-through payment equivalent to the net present value of the transferable tax credit. For the purposes of these rules, the net present value of the credit for purposes of the pass-through payment is calculated based on the formulas below:

(1) For original preliminary certifications issued on or after January 1, 2010: For a five year tax credit the net present value is determined by taking the total tax credit amount divided by 1.3579.Tax Credit/1.3579

(2) For original preliminary certifications issued on or before December 31, 2009: 50 percent BETC more than $20,000 in eligible costs - 33.5 percent pass-through rate.

(3) If an applicant elects to use the pass-through option, the net present value of the credit (the pass-through payment) for a facility is determined by the date the department issues the initial preliminary certification for the project.
