Failure of an insurer to make quarterly payments of at least 1/4 of either of the following shall subject the insurer to the penalty and interest prescribed in 1941 PA 122, MCL 205.1 to 205.31: (a) If the preceding year's liability was $20,000.00 or less, the total tax liability of the insurer for the previous calendar year. For purposes of this subdivision, an insurer's tax liability for the previous calendar year shall be considered to be the amount of tax imposed that year under section 476a or under the former single business tax act, 1975 PA 228, or the Michigan business tax act, 2007 PA 36, MCL 208.1101 to 208.1601, whichever is greater.(b) Eighty-five percent of the actual tax liability of the insurer for the current calendar year.(2) Annually before March 1, each insurer described in subsection (1) shall make and file with the revenue commissioner its statement showing all of the data necessary for computation of its taxes under this chapter, upon forms and including information that the revenue commissioner prescribes, and shall pay any additional amount due for the preceding calendar year. The failure to file the statement with the revenue commissioner does not excuse or relieve an insurer from the payment of the tax that is justly due.Amended by 2007, Act 187,s 3 , eff. 12/21/2007.1956, Act 218, Eff. 1/1/1957 ;--Am. 1959, Act 37, Eff. 3/19/1960 ;--Am. 1971, Act 54, Imd.
