     (b) The bureau shall issue to a person described in subsection (a) an amended certificate of registration and the appropriate license plate after the person pays the following:

(1) A fee of nine dollars and fifty cents ($9.50). The fee shall be distributed as follows:

(ii) the next registration date under IC 9-18.1-11 of the farm vehicle.

A partial month shall be rounded to one (1) month.

STEP TWO: Multiply the STEP ONE result by one-twelfth (1/12).

STEP THREE: Determine the product of:

(i) the STEP TWO result; multiplied by

(ii) the applicable fee under IC 9-18.1-5 for the classification to which the vehicle's registration is changed.

The amount determined under this subdivision shall be deposited in the motor vehicle highway account.
