Item 1

 
contribution rate is determined under subparagraphs (1) to
(7).

 
(1)__The commissioner shall prepare a schedule listing
all employers for whom a reserve ratio has been
computed pursuant to this paragraph, in the order of
their reserve ratios, beginning with the highest ratio.
For each employer, the schedule must show:

 
(a)__The amount of the employer's reserve ratio;

 
(b)__The amount of the employer's annual taxable
payroll; and

 
(c)__A cumulative total consisting of the amount
of the employer's annual taxable payroll plus the
amount of the annual taxable payrolls of all other
employers preceding the employer on the list.

 
(2) The commissioner shall segregate employers into
contribution categories in accordance with the
cumulative totals under subparagraph (1), division (c).
The contribution category is determined by the
cumulative payroll percentage limits in column B of
this subparagraph. Each contribution category is
identified by the contribution category number in
column A that is opposite the figures in column B,
which represent the percentage limits of each
contribution category. If an employer's taxable payroll
falls in more than one contribution category, the
employer must be assigned to the lower-numbered
contribution category, except that an employer may not
be assigned to a higher contribution category than is
assigned any other employer with the same reserve
ratio.
