    77-E:13 Application of Credit for Business Enterprise Tax Against Business Profits Tax. –
If the business enterprise liable for taxes imposed by this chapter is a member of a unitary business within the meaning of RSA 77-A:1, XIV, then the entire amount of the taxes due under this chapter by the individual member of such unitary business shall be allowed as a credit pursuant to RSA 77-A:5, X, against such individual member's portion of the total tax liability of the unitary business under RSA 77-A. In the event that the individual member's credit exceeds such member's portion of the total tax liability of the unitary business, the excess of such credit shall be allowed as a credit against any other individual member's tax liability under RSA 77-A, provided such other member is also subject to the tax imposed by this chapter. The tax liability of an individual member of a unitary business under RSA 77-A shall be determined by the following steps:
