2. (2) The taxable property to attribute to a heating company activity shall be the taxable cost of the property that cannot be directly attributed to a listed activity of a combined company multiplied by a numerator that is the taxable cost of property that can be directly attributed to the activity of a heating company and a denominator that is the sum of the taxable cost that can be directly attributed to all listed activities of a combined company.
3. (3) The taxable property to attribute to a natural gas company activity shall be the taxable cost of the property that cannot be directly attributed to a listed activity of a combined company multiplied by a numerator that is the taxable cost of property that can be directly attributed to the activity of a natural gas company and a denominator that is the sum of the taxable cost that can be directly attributed to all the listed activities of a combined company.
(C) A combined company shall file a separate report under section 5727.31 of the Revised Code for each public utility activity subject to the excise tax imposed by section 5727.30 of the Revised Code.

In addition, the tax commissioner shall exclude the portion of taxable gross receipts that cannot be attributed to a listed combined company activity or another public utility activity subject to the excise tax imposed by section 5727.30 of the Revised Code by multiplying those taxable gross receipts by a numerator that is the taxable gross receipts that can be directly attributed to an electric company or a rural electric company activity, and a denominator that is the sum of the taxable gross receipts that can be directly attributed to a listed combined company activity or another public utility activity subject to the excise tax imposed by section 5727.30 of the Revised Code.
