(3) As used in this section, "listed transaction understatement" means the sum of:

(a) The amount determined by multiplying the highest rate of tax imposed on the taxpayer under ORS chapter 316 or, if the taxpayer is a corporation, under ORS chapter 317 or 318, by any net increase in taxable income that results from a difference between the proper tax treatment of a listed transaction and the treatment of the transaction on the return of the taxpayer; and

(b) The amount of any decrease in the aggregate amount of credits determined for purposes of ORS chapter 316 or, if the taxpayer is a corporation, for purposes of ORS chapter 317 or 318, that results from the taxpayer’s treatment of a listed transaction and the proper tax treatment of that transaction.

(4) The Department of Revenue may by rule further define "listed transaction understatement" consistent with ORS 314.307 and subsection (3) of this section.
