§ 187-o. Temporary deferral nonrefundable payout credit. 1. Allowance of credit. A taxpayer shall be allowed a credit, to be computed as provided in subdivision one of section thirty-four of this chapter, against either the taxes imposed by sections one hundred eighty-three and one hundred eighty-four, or the tax imposed by section one hundred eighty-six-a of this article. However, the amount of such credit against the tax imposed by section one hundred eighty-four of this article shall be the excess of the amount of that credit over the amount of any credit allowed by this section against the tax imposed by section one hundred eighty-three of this article.
2. Application of credit. In no event shall the credit under this section be allowed in an amount which will reduce the tax to less than the applicable minimum tax fixed by section one hundred eighty-three of this article. If, however, the amount of credit allowed under this section for any taxable year reduces the tax to such amount, any amount of credit not deductible in such taxable year may be carried over to the following year or years and may be deducted from the taxpayer's tax for such year or years.
