17. If underpayment has occurred, remittance amount should include the appropriate interest and penalty. In the case

of tax underpayments, checks are to be made payable to the Office of Regulatory Services.

Example of interest and penalty calculations:

Assume the underpayment is 15 days past the due date for the 1

quarter of 2000 (due 4/30/00).

The underpayment equals $352.50. Interest is calculated at 1% per month or portion thereof. In this case, interest

equals $1.74. Penalty accrues at 5% per month (not to exceed 25% ) on the 1

day.

The penalty calculation is 5% of the underpayment plus the interest due. In this case, penalty equals $17.71. The

total amount of the remittance would equal $371.95.

NOTE: If the difference between Line 6 (Original Total Wages) and Line 7 (Amended Total Wages) indicates an

increase in total wages, lines 18 through 21 must be completed for each individual employee involved in the
