a taxpayer shall be allowed a credit against the tax imposed by this
part to be credited or refunded in the manner hereinafter provided in
this section. The amount of such credit shall be the excess of (A) the
amount of sales and compensating use taxes imposed by section eleven

became legally due on or after and was paid on or after July first,
nineteen hundred seventy-seven, less any credits or refunds of such
taxes, with respect to the purchase or use by the taxpayer of machinery
or equipment for use or consumption directly and predominantly in the
production of tangible personal property, gas, electricity,
refrigeration or steam for sale, by manufacturing, processing,
generating, assembling, refining, mining or extracting, or telephone
central office equipment or station apparatus or comparable telegraph
equipment for use directly and predominantly in receiving at destination
or initiating and switching telephone or telegraph communication, but
not including parts with a useful life of one year or less or tools or
supplies used in connection with such machinery, equipment or apparatus
over (B) the amount of any credit for such sales and compensating use
taxes allowed or allowable against the taxes imposed by any local law of
the city imposing a tax on utilities and vendors of utility services,
for any periods embraced within the taxable year of the taxpayer under
this part. (2) The credit allowed under this section for any taxable
year shall be deemed to be an overpayment of tax by the taxpayer to be
credited or refunded, without interest, in accordance with the
provisions of section seventy-seven of this title. (3) Where the
taxpayer receives a refund or credit of any tax imposed under section
eleven hundred seven of the tax law for which the taxpayer had claimed a
credit under the provisions of section four-b of such chapter in a prior
taxable year, the amount of such tax refund or credit shall be added to
the tax imposed by section three of such chapter, and such amount shall
be subtracted in computing entire net income for the taxable year.
